Tuesday

I can tell you what I have discerned from the passages and knowing Christ. Let’s look at some details here. Lazarus was loved by Jesus as well as Mary and Martha the sisters of Lazarus. They had been following Jesus and knew of the miracles that He had been doing. Let’s look at some key verses here. John 11:21-37

"Lord," Martha said to Jesus, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask."

25Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; 26and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

27"Yes, Lord," she told him, "I believe that you are the Christ,^[b] the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

28And after she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. "The Teacher is here," she said, "and is asking for you." 29When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him. 30Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him. 31When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.

32When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

33When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. 34"Where have you laid him?" he asked.
"Come and see, Lord," they replied.

37But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?"

Jesus was troubled by their lack of faith in Him. After all this time and they still had doubts about Christ and His ability to raise the dead. He didn’t weep for the loss of Lazarus He knew that Lazarus would live again He wept because of their lack of faith. The faith of a mustard seed can move mountains yet even the ones that followed Him didn’t have that.
