On The First Day Of The Week

Thank God for the story of Jesus' death and resurrection to provide an outline on the event's that took place while Jesus was on earth. 

Now, we just need to soak them in and allow the Holy Spirit to show us how to put it all together for us to live a life worthy of His sacrifice.

God Bless.


Luke 24:1-8

On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb.  They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,  but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.  While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them.  In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?  He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:  ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”  Then they remembered his words.

Jesus lives! We worship the living God, the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords. Because Jesus rose from the grave, we have a hope and a future through Him. Our Lord and Savior gave it all! So often in life we "seek the living among the dead." We seek life, joy, or fulfillment in hollow shadows or a host of idols. Jesus Christ is the source of life, and He is alive and well. Praise be to God that He is risen and conquered the sin that held us captive. The Word has come to life, eternally. Amen!
