Raising Lazarus Part One | Smith Wigglesworth Daily Devotional

About this sermon

Raising Lazarus Part One | Smith Wigglesworth Daily Devotional "I am not moved by what I see. I am moved only by what I believe." In today's gripping devotional, we begin the remarkable true story of a man told by God to raise "Lazarus"—a Welsh church leader wasted by four years of tuberculosis, nothing but bones and skin, with everything in him speaking of decay. When the postcard announcing the miracle was thrown back in mockery, faith stood firm. In this powerful message, you'll discover: What happened when God spoke on the mountaintop The hostile reception that greeted a word from God Why human opinion must never override divine instruction The difference between being moved by what you see vs. what you believe How to persist in believing despite discouragement from every angle Key Scripture: Isaiah 58:11 - "The LORD will guide you continually." Additional Reading: Isaiah 58:1–14 THE CRITICAL MOMENT: "Are you ready to go home now?" they asked after showing him the dying man. "I am not moved by what I see. I am moved only by what I believe. I know this: no man looks at the circumstances or relies on his feelings if he believes. The man who believes God has his request." From the human standpoint: The man was helpless—nothing but a mass of bones with skin stretched over them. There was no life to be seen. Everything spoke of decay. Four years of tuberculosis. Everyone said it was impossible. From God's standpoint: "I want you to go and raise Lazarus." When God speaks, that settles it. His Word can never fail. The blessed lesson: God can work mightily when you persist in believing Him in spite of discouragement from the human standpoint. Never listen to human plans. If God says a thing, you have to believe it. 🙏 PRAYER POINT: Ask God to help you be moved only by what you believe, not by what you see—to stand on His Word even when every human opinion says it's impossible. 📖 Subscribe for daily devotionals teaching you to walk by faith, not by sight—even when facing impossible situations. 💬 When has God asked you to believe Him despite impossible circumstances?
