Psalm 40

6 In sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,

but you have given me an open ear.

Burnt offering and sin offering

you have not required.

7 Then I said, “Behold, I have come;

in the scroll of the book it is written of me:

8 I delight to do your will, O my God;

your law is within my heart.”

Who is this person who is written about in God’s scroll? That is the question of the text. It must refer to Jesus, but why? If we understand why, we will understand that is it also written, possibly, about you and me.

Exodus 34:29

29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand as he came down from the mountain, Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because he had been talking with God.

Moses looked different after being in God’s presence. Moses' face shown without him knowing it. Just as Moses’ face shown from being in God’s presence and talking with God, so our faces can shine from being in God’s presence. And the world needs us to shine, reflecting the glory of God.

45: Jesus Wept (John 11:35)

35 Jesus Wept.

Join us as we work out hearing God in Scripture in real time in John 11. We look at the passage around “Jesus wept”. Jesus shows us His emotion, he feels the pain of those around Him. He is no stranger to pain and suffering, and he displays His heart for us here.

Mark 9:22-23
22 And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” 23 And Jesus said to him, “ ‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”

This man is in desperate need because of the demonization of his son. “If you can…” is what he says to Jesus. Look how differently Jesus looks at what can be done. Jesus knows God. And he knows that the key is to believe. With belief, the door opens to all things. All things are possible.

Mark 8:24

And he looked up and said, “I see people, but they look like trees, walking.”

Jesus heals this blind man in two stages. Why? Is he not able to heal him fully the first time? Hardly. He is teaching his disciples. These disciples who had begun to understand who he was and what he could do needed to understand that his understanding was a process. Just as the blind man needed to be “touched” again, so the disciples (and we, too) needed to be “touched” again and brought to a more complete understanding and faith.

John 9:18

The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight

The Jews/Pharisees did not believe that this man had been blind. He is telling them, repeatedly, that he was blind but now he can see. And yet they did not believe. What causes this unbelief? Why did they, and why do we struggle with believing? Can we become those who open our eyes in wonder and belief and believe that God is doing marvelous things?

Mark 6:34
34 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things.

Jesus sees people who are desperate for the truth, for the life they had seen in Jesus. They are lost. They want to be found. And Jesus has compassion to give them what they are looking for; life, the gospel. May we want Jesus like that.

Jesus teaches his disciples to be witnesses. This job of witnessing is essential for any follower of Jesus. This witnessing is empowered by faith. Living by faith, living totally dependent upon God is the power source for the witness to Jesus.
