Today's Key Passage 👇
⭐️ Big Idea:
The sign is not the destination. Jesus is.
The sign is not the destination. Jesus is.
👉 1. You Can Trust Without Seeing
Faith follows the sign before it sees the destination.
Faith follows the sign before it sees the destination.
Faith isn’t believing without evidence; it’s trusting beyond what you can see.
Jesus never promised that every broken thing would be fixed now.
He promised that one day no broken thing will remain.
He promised that one day no broken thing will remain.
Faith doesn’t require you to know how the story ends.
It requires you to know who you’re trusting.
It requires you to know who you’re trusting.
Q: What are you demanding to see before you will trust Jesus?
Pray: Jesus, I trust who You are before I see how this turns out.
Pray: Jesus, I trust who You are before I see how this turns out.
👉 2. You Can See Without Knowing
You can see the sign and still miss what it’s pointing to.
You can see the sign and still miss what it’s pointing to.
You can experience the power of Jesus without knowing the person of Jesus.
A miracle does not automatically create faith.
You can want Jesus because you want something more than Jesus.
Q: Have I made Jesus my life, or am I using Jesus to get the life I really want?
Pray: Jesus, I don’t just want what You can give me. I want You.
Pray: Jesus, I don’t just want what You can give me. I want You.
👉 3. You Can Know Without Surrendering
You can understand where the sign points and still refuse to go there.
You can understand where the sign points and still refuse to go there.
You can know who Jesus claims to be and still refuse to let Him be Lord.
Sabbath rest never meant God stopped sustaining His creation.
Jesus isn’t claiming the right to do just any work on the Sabbath.
He’s claiming to do the KIND of work only God can do.
He’s claiming to do the KIND of work only God can do.
The boy heard His word and lived.
The lame man heard His word and rose.
One day the dead will hear His voice and rise.
These signs point to Jesus as the Son of Man—the One with authority over life, death, and judgment.

Q: If Jesus is Lord, what am I still refusing to surrender?
Pray: Jesus, I don’t just recognize who You are. I surrender to who You are.
Pray: Jesus, I don’t just recognize who You are. I surrender to who You are.
Don't stop at the sign.
Follow it all the way to Jesus.
