Tag: Bible verses about believing God at His word

John 11:25 (NKJV) 25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

“I am the resurrection and the life.”

Death has no power over Jesus Christ.

Jesus spoke the words in the verse above as He talked to Martha. He was preparing to call Lazarus from the tomb after he had been dead for 4 days.

You see, Jesus did this for them. It was not for His own benefit.

They needed to see that He was who He said He was. Lazarus’ death and resurrection had a purpose; that they would believe that Jesus Christ  was indeed sent from God.

John 11:42 (NKJV) 42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.”

We can say “I believe”, but when it comes right down to it, do we really believe? Or do we need proof so we will believe?

Christ raised Lazarus from the dead in plain sight. They saw it take place with their own eyes.

How much more would it mean if we believed in Him without seeing?

It means a lot; for the word of God says we are blessed if we believe and have not seen.

John 20:29 (NKJV) 29 Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

Faith is believing without having to see, having evidence, or proof.

He is the resurrection and the life! Have faith in Him today. Amen.
