Resurrection Power Today
A Devotion on the Power of Christ's Resurrection
Happy Easter and Happy Resurrection Day to all!
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is so important to our faith, a mighty victory that shattered death's grip forever. Acts 2:24 declares God raised Christ Jesus from the dead because death could not hold Him. Though it happened long ago, it's a living truth that transforms us today. Romans 8:11 says the same Spirit who raised Christ dwells in us, ready to "quicken" or breathe life into our tired bodies. Ever feel spiritually, mentally, or physically drained?
Living Power Today
His resurrection power isn't just our eternal hope—it's alive TODAY because TODAY is the day of our salvation! Right now, our Heavenly Father is with us. You're breathing, aren't you? His mercies are new every morning. You're breathing, no? GREAT is His active and alive faithfulness!
Through Christ's resurrection, His victory wasn't a one-time blow to Satan—it's the Spirit in us defeating evil today! Our living God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—is alive in us! 1 Peter 1:3 calls this a "lively hope," anchoring us through life's storms.
Victory Through Christ
Thank God Christ reached the other side—VICTORY—after His darkest moments on the Cross. Thank God there's another side when we face dark times because our faith in God and Jesus is ALIVE! I'm so thankful the same power that raised Jesus is working in us TODAY, breathing life into spiritually dry bones, tired minds, or those physically sick because HE is alive! I'm so thankful healed people can help heal other people—not because of us, but because of our powerfully active God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit who are alive and engaged in us! Amen!
