You Are Never Alone: Trust in the Miracle of God's Presence and Power (Study Guide With Dvd)

When life feels depleted, does God care? I'm facing an onslaught of challenges; will God help? When life grows dark and stormy, does God notice? I'm facing the fear of death; will God help me? The answer in the life - giving miracles in the Gospel of John is a resounding yes.

In You Are Never Alone, Max Lucado looks at the miracles of Jesus as recorded in the Gospel of John. John chose the stories and events from Jesus' life that he believed would give his readers strength, empower them, lift them up, and speak life into their situations.

Jesus transformed water into wine. We don't have to apologize to God for praying for something insignificant. Jesus healed a man who couldn't walk. We don't have to stay stuck, no matter the reason we got stuck in the first place. Jesus saved the disciples from the raging storm. We are not alone in our storms, even when it feels like it. Jesus healed the blind man. We don't have to be defined by our darkness: guilt, sin, trauma, anxiety, fear. Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. There is nothing so bad we have done that Jesus doesn't have power over it to forgive. Jesus was resurrected. Even though his disciples didn't believe him, Jesus didn't add to their shame or punish them.

Today, take courage that you are stronger than you think because God is nearer than you know. This is the message of the miracles . . . that with God you are never alone.

Publisher Description

:In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling author Max Lucado looks at the miracles of Jesus as recorded in the Gospel of John*.* As John states, he recorded many of these signs for an express purpose: "These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name" (John 20:31). John chose the stories and events from Jesus' life that he believed would give his readers strength, empower them, lift them up, and speak life into their situations.

By the time John penned the words of his Gospel, he was an old man ... his hair silver and skin wrinkled. He was pastoring a collection of Christ followers in the distant city of Ephesus. But he still loved to tell the story-some six decades earlier and a thousand miles removed-of when Jesus first called him to lay down his net ... and he obeyed. The others are gone now. Peter, Andrew, James. They've long since followed their calls and fulfilled their missions. Only John remains, and he knows that his days are coming to an end. It is with this purpose that he takes up his pen ... to help his readers believe and have life.

John's record of Jesus' miracles reassure us that we are never stuck or without hope. We are never forgotten. All the forces of heaven have been marshalled to come to our aid. A rescue mission is underway! The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. A multitude of angels and the power of Scripture. The strength of prayer and the wisdom of saints. All this, and more, are continually working together to get us out and see us through. This is the message of the miracles ... that with God you are never alone.
