Do Not Lose Faith #4

Luke 10:42, Isaiah 40:3-6

Jesus’ prophecy over Mary was that what she had “would not be taken away.”

The Lord is interceding for us right now.

The death of Lazarus was a traumatic wilderness for Mary and Martha. 

Let us examine 4 solutions to 4 traumatic wilderness environments.

• Valleys FILLED IN
• Mountains LEVELLED
• Curves STRAIGHTENED 
• Rough Places SMOOTHENED

Solutions have to be “called out.” Isaiah 40:6-8, John 11:40-44.

• Jesus “shouted” to call out “dead” Lazarus
• Call out a filling, levelling, straightened path and smoothing.

Call out solutions with worship. Isaiah 40:6-31 (note vs. 29-31)

• Worship invites His Presence 
• Worship invigorates angelic activity 
• Worship elevates and expands the believers spirit
