“The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.”
Matthew 28:5-6 NIV
One of the greatest compulsions mankind has is the sensation, the knowledge that they are successful and victorious in their lives. They desire to know that they have made a real difference in life and not just the 9-5 kind of things. The angel stated the greatest news that mankind has received, their messiah, their savior had risen. He had overcome the things that had plagued mankind since the fall, sin- death and the grave.
We now know that Jesus’ resurrection has provided us the gift of salvation but has paved the way for us to live a victorious life in him! Because he has risen and is alive, we can be raised up with him to heavenly places. This is our gateway to a life so glorious, so grand, we can do nothing but thank the Father for his grace to us.
Celebrate every day in the fact that our Savior is alive and he is sitting on His throne in heaven and our lives. We are raised up because he has risen. Glory to God!
In Christ
