Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Hope

DAY 2 OF 30

  

April 2

Introduction

Today’s reading concludes the story of the death and raising of Lazarus. Jesus weeps when he arrives. After praying to God, Jesus calls Lazarus out of the tomb and instructs the onlookers to remove Lazarus’s burial cloths. Following the resurrection of Lazarus, the religious leaders make plans to kill Jesus.

Today’s Scripture: John 11:40 (GNT)

Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that you would see God’s glory if you believed?” 

Today’s Reading 

John 11:28-57

Reflect

When Mary meets Jesus, she says the same thing (verse 32) posed earlier by her sister Martha (verse 21). What does this indicate about their faith in Jesus? How do you demonstrate your faith in Jesus? What was Jesus’s prayer (verses 41, 42)? In what way was God’s glory revealed? 

Pray

Lord Jesus, I believe and trust in you, and you reveal God’s glory. As I walk with you each day, strengthen my faith and help me to grow in knowledge of you. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who are grieving the death of a loved one

Tomorrow’s Reading

Luke 14:1-14: Jesus teaches about humility and hospitality.
