MESSAGE NOTES

Everybody Does Some Cave Time | Part 6

A cave can either be a ____________________ place or a _______________ place. What can the cave of hopelessness be for me? 1. It can be my cave of ________________________________________________. Early on Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance. She ran and found Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. She said, “They have taken the Lord’s body out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!” John 20:1-2 (NLT) Mary was standing outside the tomb crying, and as she wept, she stooped and looked in. She saw two white-robed angels, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of the place where the body of Jesus had been lying. “Dear woman, why are you crying?” the angels asked her. “Because they have taken away my Lord,” she replied, “and I don’t know where they have put him.” John 20:11-13 (NLT) 2. It can be my cave of ________________________________________________. She turned to leave and saw someone standing there. It was Jesus, but she didn’t recognize him. “Dear woman, why are you crying?” Jesus asked her. “Who are you looking for?” She thought he was the gardener. “Sir,” she said, “if you have taken him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will go and get him.” John 20:14-15 (NLT) 3. It can be the cave of ________________________________________________. “Mary!” Jesus said. She turned to him and cried out, “Rabboni!” (which is Hebrew for “Teacher”). John 20:16 (NLT) Mary Magdalene found the disciples and told them, “I have seen the Lord!” Then she gave them his message. John 20:18 (NLT)
