I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE
HOOK
MUMMY GAME
Divide kids
into 2-3 groups. Choose one kid from each group. Get parents/kids to help wrap
up the kid with toilet paper (like Lazarus). Most creative one wins. Then get
kids to remove the “grave clothes”.
WINK, WINK, RESURRECTION
Similar to wink murder. Kids sit in a circle. Choose someone to be
the “resurrector” and a detective to guess. The resurrector has to discreetly
wink at one of the other kids. But this time if someone is
winked at, they must jump up and shout “I’m alive”, instead of
dying. The detective is allowed three guesses to work out who the resurrector
is before everyone is “alive”.

LESSON (John 11 : 1-45)
STORY
Tell the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. Get the older
kids to read the Bible passage out loud. You may want to get some kids to role
play.
What did the messengers tell Jesus?
His friend Lazarus was very
sick.
Did Jesus rush immediately to his side?
No. He stayed 2 more days.
Why? Why didn’t
He stop Lazarus from dying? (get kids to think)
Because there was a bigger plan — Jesus wanted to demonstrate some
greater miracle of God to prove that He had victory not only over sickness, but
over death.
When Jesus reached Bethany, what was the first thing Martha and Mary
(Lazarus’ sister) said to Him?
“Lord, if you had been here, my brother would
not have died.
How long had Lazarus been dead?
4 days. Ewww … stinko!
What did Jesus ask the people to do at the grave?
Move away the
stone.
How did Jesus
pray? Did He beg God, “Please, please do something!!!!”?
No. Jesus said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew
that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing
here, that they may believe that you sent me.”
Note: Jesus
called God “Father”.
What happened
when Jesus said, “Lazarus, come out!”
Lazarus came
out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his
face.
Isn’t Jesus wonderful? Even when no one around believed
that He could do it, when people doubted and complained, He still did a great
miracle and raised Lazarus — who had been dead 4 days — from the dead! He
resurrected Lazarus!
JESUS IS THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE
What did Jesus
say to Martha?
“I AM the resurrection and the
life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever
lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” (John
11:25-26)
What is
resurrection? Resurrection means being brought back to life.
Jesus said those who believed in Him will live, even though they
die. Then He says if they believe in Him, they will never die! What do you
think Jesus meant by that?
Jesus didn’t just mean that when we die, we will go to heaven. He
didn’t mean we will never die physically — all of us will die one day; even
Lazarus died physically later.
Jesus wanted to tell Martha something very important and wonderful.
When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, He wanted to prove something even more
awesome and miraculous — that He can give life to those who are spiritually
dead!
JESUS CAME TO GIVE US THE "JESUS LIFE"
God told Adam that if he ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good
& Evil, he will surely die. When Adam disobeyed God, he died spiritually.
And because of that, we ALL were dead spiritually. We were all like Lazarus …
dead!
Jesus came to die on the cross, taking all the punishments for our
sin. Three days later, He rose again. By His death and resurrection, Jesus
defeated sin AND death!
More importantly, Jesus’ death and resurrection brought us back to
life from spiritual death. Jesus put His life into us — the Jesus Life. This is
an everlasting life that will never die.
When we believe in Jesus, we have His Jesus Life in us today! And
even when we sin, even when we sometimes do things our way, even when our
physical body dies, we will always have this Jesus Life in us forever!
Do you want to
believe in Jesus today?
