John 12:9-19 | June 14, 2026

rejoice

• Reread John 12:9-19. Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to stir faith and joy in your heart towards God. Stop and intentionally worship God in response to what is revealed about God in this passage.

• Take time to set your heart in a posture of saying “Blessed is He”.

reflect

• What in this passage is helping you see where you’re in need of spiritual formation (growing into the image of Christ)?

• Consider how Jesus, as the King eternal, behaved in response to hostility around him. If it is the will of God for you to be conformed to the image of Christ, consider your behavior the last few weeks in light of how Jesus behaved.

• The people in this story heard that Jesus was coming and prepared instruments of worship to meet him at his arrival. Is this how you approach his second coming?

respond

• Is the Holy Spirit prompting obedience from you this week? Tell someone and ask them to hold you accountable.

read ahead (next week)!

• John 12:20-26

In hearing the weekly Sunday sermons, the seeds of the word of God are being sown in your heart.

We aim to help you water that seed so that you may bear the fruit that comes from repentance and belief in the person and finished work of Jesus Christ.

You may use this privately, with your family, for midweek groups, or an impromptu Bible study with a friend.
