Wait, Watch, Worship: A Lent DevotionalSample
Wake (from death to life)
Thursday – 10 days before Easter
John 11:33-45
The story of Lazarus is miraculous. It displays the power and glory of Jesus Christ. Who else can raise a dead person to life? No one. But the story of Lazarus offers just a glimpse of Jesus’ full power and glory, for he offers to raise all people from death to life, not just at one’s final breath, but today, right now. All of humanity is in need of resurrection. We are all dead in sin, in need of resurrection. As you read today, think back to when you were raised to new life through the loving forgiveness of Jesus Christ who alone can make us right with God. Rejoice that because of Jesus, you have moved from death to life.
