Do You Believe?—by Mike Masola

August 1, 2022

Sermon summary:

John 11: 17–27 Martha believed Jesus had the power to raise Lazarus. 

Jesus has the power to act and get involved even though the odds were against it. We matter to Jesus, even though it's hard to believe when we go through hardship.

Sometimes we believe on an intellectual level, but limit him in practice. We believe but don't expect it to really happen. Do I still believe he can do the impossible?


Where is your faith and belief?

What happened to your spiritual dreams? Stretch your faith, renew your belief. God wants to act.


Psalm 78:9–22

V12–16 God did amazing miracles but the people forgot it, and asked: "Can God also do this?" Although we have the physical evidence, we still doubt.


How do we get to a place where we believe? 


  1. Choose to believe in the power of God's word before it happens.
  2. Remember what God has done. 1 Samuel 17:34–37.
  3. Be inspired by the word. Jeremiah 15:16 God's word gives great joy. Seek inspiration to renew your faith. Let's not lower the bar of what God can do.

Psalm 23 paints God as our shepherd—guiding, providing, and protecting. In Jesus, the Good Shepherd, we find the same care. Choose godly community over isolation, grow through mentorship, and live to reflect his love in a world that needs it daily, faithfully.

Jesus, the Bread of Life, meets our deepest needs. We chase power, comfort, and distractions, yet still feel empty. True satisfaction is found in him alone. Feed your soul daily with God’s Word before anything else, and let him be your centre.

Living like Jesus means denying self, sharing the gospel in every season, trusting God in hardship, and reaching the lost with grace, courage, and faith.
