Resurrection!

For Wednesday, October 28, 2020 

Romans 1:4 NLT: “Jesus was shown to be the Son of God when he was raised from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.”

The Bible contains several accounts of resurrection. Jesus raised the daughter of Jarius, a Synagogue leader, and later his good friend Lazarus. But the ultimate “raised-from-the-dead” was Jesus himself! Jesus had been beaten, crucified, a spear thrust into his side, pronounced dead by the Roman Centurions, and his body placed in a grave. Three days later God had him up, out and walking around where people could see him! 

So friends, death is not the end. There is clearly life after this life. God, who is the Creator of all life, has the ability to give life to whom he will – even after death!

We have just a few years here on earth to lock-in our future. Jesus has given us all the chance to walk alongside him, to spend eternity in the presence of the Father, and that gives us a lot of hope for our future! 

Blessings and safety to all!
