THIS WEEK’S DAILY DEVO OVERVIEW: JOHN 10:22—JOHN 12:50

John 10:22-42: Eternally Secure

• Jesus’ miracles proved his deity and fulfilled Old Testament prophecy.
• The eternal life provided for and promised by Jesus can never be taken away.
• Jesus confirmed his authority and position with the Father by Scripture and miracles. 

John 11:1-27: Do You Believe?

• Jesus delayed healing Lazarus to reveal God’s glory and ultimately demonstrate his power over death.
• Jesus declared, “I am the resurrection and the life.”
• Martha demonstrates that genuine faith remains steadfast even in the face of disappointing circumstances.

John 11:28-57: Lazarus, Come Out!

• Jesus wept—not over Lazarus’ death but over the devastating effect of sin on the world.
• By raising Lazarus from the dead, Jesus proved that he is the “resurrection and the life.”
• Jesus’ call for those who witnessed Lazarus walking out of the grave, to “unbind” him, illustrates the believer’s role in discipleship.  

John 12:1-26: Extravagant Love

• Mary showed genuine humility and reverence by anointing Jesus’ feet with costly perfume.
• The King of Kings rode into Jerusalem on a donkey as he started his journey to the cross.
• Jesus taught that his death would bring life, much like a seed that is buried and then grows. 

John 12:27-50: Glory that Matters

• As the time of the cross approached, Jesus was “deeply troubled” but remained completely surrendered to the Father.
• Jesus warned the crowd that rejecting the Light results in spiritual darkness and judgment.
• Some who believed in Jesus stayed quiet because they sought approval from others rather than from God.
