Hello everyone, we pray you are enjoying your Easter weekend. We encourage you to celebrate and not be alone on this Holy weekend. It is a wonderful time to join with believers worldwide, wherever you are and praise God that Jesus His Son is alive!
The crucifixion, when Jesus was crucified on the cross for our sins was necessary.
This is our good news though, Jesus is alive. He is the Resurrection and the Life.
Jesus spoke to Mary and Martha when their brother Lazarus had died. He encouraged them during their loss, because He knew a miracle was coming. He was going to raise Lazarus from the dead.
When Mary and Martha struggled with the loss of their brother, Jesus said “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live…” John 11:25 Jesus spoke to Lazarus who had been dead a few days, and spoke to him to come forth. To live.
And Lazarus came back to life.
He gave hope in the midst of sorrow. Jesus healed, restored, saved and brought people back to life.
Jesus knew His purpose was to be the Savior which is glorious.
Our lives will never be the same because we have asked Jesus to come and to be our Savior. Everything changes when we believe. Believe that Jesus is the Son of God.
Everything changes.
Jesus after the crucifixion saw the disciples again. He had risen but hadn’t ascended yet to the Father in heaven. Seeing the disciples He encouraged them that He indeed was alive.
In His goodness He said to Thomas who struggled to believe, to come and see, to put his finger in His sides where He’d been pierced with the sword during the crucifixion.
Jesus knew that when Thomas stopped doubting and believed….everything would change.
Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”
Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” John 20:27-29
Today is a wonderful day to ask Jesus into your heart and to be your Savior. He indeed is the Son of God and He has made a way for you and me to come to God, to be cleansed of sin, and to believe. Because everything changes when you believe.
Believe that Jesus is God’s Son. He loves you and asks you to stop ‘doubting and believe.’ Be born again. Today.
He is Risen. He is Risen indeed.
