Easter Sermon: John 20 - Lord Strengthen My Faith

  1. How is your faith tank right now? How is your trust in the Lord?
  2. Fear is powerful and can dominate your mind and body, acting like a chain or shackles. What is a time when overwhelming fear affected your faith/life? How did things change? Did faith help you persevere through and overcome the fearful circumstances?
  3. Jesus stepped into the room with the disciples and changed their fear to joy. What is a circumstance you can invite Jesus to enter in your life right now?
  4. How does the Lord deal with us when our faith is weak and struggling, when doubts are dominating our minds and emotions, and when we are striving in our own power?
  5. Do you believe if you trust God with a mustard seed size faith that He can grow it (Matthew 17:20)?
  6. What was the price for peace for all?
  7. The disciples encountered Jesus in the room and Paul encountered Jesus on the road to Damascus (Acts 9). How can the Word, a fear of the Lord, repentance, or a revelation of what Christ has done for you on the cross and in His resurrection (the empty tomb) build your faith? (1 Peter 2:24; Romans 10:27; Provers 8:13 & 19:23; Psalm 27:1; Acts 2:38; John 3:16)
  8. Who is the perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2)? Has your heart moved from believing Jesus is true and genuine to believing that Jesus is Lord of your life to trusting in Him through a personal relationship, trusting him as a personal, close friend? Have you surrendered all to Him in your life?
  9. Exodus 33:14 states, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” The Holy Spirit allows His presence to be always with believers through faith. How does His presence and your faith (trust in Him) change how you pray, read His Word, and persevere through challenges (James 5:13-18; Acts 27)?
  10. How is Jesus your peace and joy, even amid circumstance or suffering (2 Timothy 1:12)?
  11. Can you be honest with God about your fears and doubts?
  12. Can you invite the Holy Spirit into them to bring you peace?
