Show the Main Point Everyone say that with me Very interesting! Let s take a look at how he does this. Bible Story: Play the Bible Story Video Lazarus and his sisters, Mary and Martha, were Jesus friends. When Lazarus got sick, Mary and Martha sent a message to Jesus. Now, when I hear that someone I love is sick, I want to go visit him or her right away! Did Jesus hurry to see Lazarus? No, but Jesus had a bigger plan. He waited two more days before He went to Judea where Lazarus, Mary, and Martha lived. Jesus disciples weren t sure if going to Judea was a good idea. Some of the Jews who lived there did not like Jesus. Jesus disciples did not want Jesus to get hurt. But Jesus explained that Lazarus had died, and Jesus was going to wake him up. By the time Jesus got to Bethany, the town where Mary and Martha lived, Lazarus had been buried in a tomb for four days. Martha hurried out to meet Jesus. She knew Jesus could have kept Lazarus from dying. Jesus said, Your brother will rise again. Now Martha thought Jesus was talking about the last day a day in the future when Jesus will come back to
earth and all believers will rise from the dead. Jesus said, I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me, even if he dies, will live. Martha s sister, Mary, came to meet Jesus too. She cried because her brother had died, and Jesus cried too. They went to the tomb where Lazarus was buried, and Jesus said, Remove the stone. Martha objected. After four days, Lazarus body would smell. But Jesus told her that if she believed, she would see how great God is. So the stone covering the entrance of the tomb was taken away, and Jesus said, Lazarus, come out! Lazarus came out of the tomb. He was wrapped in cloth, so Jesus said, Unwrap him and let him go. If Jesus had healed Lazarus when he was sick, no one would have seen how Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. Jesus showed His power over death, and many people believed in Him. Jesus said he is the resurrection.

Jesus Healed a Woman and Raised a Girl Mark 5:21-43 Jesus got into a boat and crossed the Sea of Galilee. He stood on the shore, and a large crowd gathered around Him. Then Jairus (JIGH ruhs), one of the rulers in the synagogue, fell at Jesus feet and begged for His help. My daughter is about to die! Please come touch her so she will be healed and live, he said. Jesus went with Jairus, and many people followed, crowding around Him. In the crowd was a woman who had been bleeding for 12 years. She had seen many doctors and spent all her money, but no one could help her. She was getting worse. The woman had heard about Jesus, so she came up behind Him in the crowd and touched His clothes. She said to herself, If I touch even His clothes, I will be healed. As soon as she touched Jesus clothes, her bleeding stopped and she knew she was healed. At that moment, Jesus felt that power had gone out of Him. He turned around and said, Who touched My clothes? Jesus disciples pointed out that many people were crowded around Him. But Jesus kept looking around. The woman, knowing she was healed, came forward and fell before Jesus. She told Him what had happened. Jesus said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. You are healed. While Jesus was speaking, some men came from Jairus s house and said, Your daughter is dead. Do not bother Jesus anymore. Jesus heard what the men said, and He told Jairus, Do not be afraid. Just believe. Jesus and three of His disciples went to Jairus house. The people there were crying and wailing loudly. Jesus said, Why are you crying? The child is not dead. She is sleeping. The people laughed at Jesus, and He told them all to go. Jesus took Jairus and his wife into the room where the child was. He took the girl by the hand and said, Little girl, get up. Immediately, the girl got up and began walking around. Jairus and his wife were amazed. Jesus told them to give the girl some food and to not tell anyone what had happened. Christ Connection: By healing the woman and raising the little girl from the dead, Jesus showed His power as the Messiah. Jesus died on the cross and rose again to save people from sin and death. When we trust in Jesus, God forgives our sin and changes us to be more like His Son.
