Easter is now upon us and what does this wonderful, awesome season
mean to you?1 Peter 2:24 says :"HE HIMSELF BORE OUR SINS IN HIS BODY ON THE TREE , SO THAT WE MIGHT DIE TO SINS & LIVE FOR RIGHTEOUNESS; BY HIS WOUNDS YOU HAVE BEEN HEALED.''Think about that Friday and what was happening for Jesus in that journey of crucifixion: REJECTION,CROSSBEAM, PIERCING NAILS, CONTORTION, EXCRUCIATING PAIN,THIRST, WRITHING, BETRAYEL,SPASMS, HEAVING, NO OXYGEN, SARCASM, HATRED, TEARS, TAUNTS, DICE GAMBLING, DARKNESS, EARHQUAKE, ENTOMBED. For a life blackened with failure ,that Friday means forgiveness. For the heart scarred with futility, that Friday means purpose, and for the soul looking into this side of the tunnel of death, that Friday means DELIVERANCE. What do you do with that GOOD FRIDAY in your life ?????
But also don't forget SUNDAY is coming, and that means RESURRECTION LIFE & POWER ,RECONCILIATION, A 'HOPE FILLED ' FUTURE! Death could not hold JESUS down for HE IS RISEN , SEATED UPON GOD'S THRONE , HE IS THE LAMB OF GOD ! And if you give your life to Jesus , the Saviour of the world, you to will have the wonderful present & future of death not being able to hold you down.
Romans 5:1-2 WE HAVE PEACE WITH GOD THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THROUGH WHOM WE HAVE GAINED ACCESS BY FAITH INTO HIS GRACE IN WHICH WE NOW STAND. AND WE REJOICE IN THE HOPE OF THE GLORY OF GOD.''
Have a blessed, holy Easter !
