Wednesday 23 February John 11.46-57 Qn.3,7

…seen what he did, they believed in him, (45): The miracle of bringing back Lazarus made a big number of Jews believe in Jesus, but there are some whose interests were to take the news to the chief priests (45-46), these Chief Priests and elders made this a judgment case. They started finding strategies to stop him from receiving many people since they feared that Romans would destroy their city and their tribe (47-48). Everything Jesus did was due to the grace that was meant for all people. It’s amazing how some people didn’t like him, some challenged him and even planned to kill him (53-57). The plan to kill Jesus didn’t succeed since it was not the right time. Whenever you meet life challenges, remember that God is above all and trust in his help (Jeremiah 33.3). Consider:  Nothing would reach you without God’s approval; and within every situation he stays with you to save you.  Song 113 (Praises)
