There are many difficulties and struggles in this life, and Jesus, like the good shepherd that He is, will lead us through each and every one of them. But, the greatest difficulty, an enemy that we have, is the power of sin and the penalty and death for that sin. Can we trust Jesus here also? Today, in John 11, we are going to see a chapter that should terrify Satan - he has the power of death, and he has the kingdom and is the Prince of the power of the air to the sons of disobedience, but, in this chapter we will see that Jesus, even over death is able to call forth life. This, a microcosm of what it would be like when He returns, and all the dead will be raised to stand before the Lord Jesus. Those who have believed and lived for Him, they shall go on to eternal life and those who had been disobedient to eternal death. And so while there is still time, John has recorded for us the faith and trust that we can have that even sin and death cannot hold Jesus back from saving His dear people whom He loves and they are unable to be snatched from His hand. Not only that, they cannot even be snatched from the Father's hand - so protected and loved are we! We are going to see people who still wrestle with doubt and faithlessness and despite this, Jesus will go on to be the victorious King and the lover of our soul.
