Encounter # 64: Jesus has risen from the dead
Read: Mark 16:1-14
After the Sabbath, early Sunday morning there was an earthquake and the stone that was covering Jesus' tomb was rolled away. An angel said, "He is risen. He is not here." Jesus rose from the dead just has He said. Jesus physically rose from the dead. He is alive today. Jesus appeared to many people after He rose from the dead: His apostles, 500 people at once....
He remained on earth for 40 more days before He ascended into heaven.
Why is Jesus' Resurrection important? It proves that everything He said was true. It proves He is the Son of God. It shows that He conquered death and the grave. He defeated the devil's power. He open Heaven's gates to whoever believe in Him. It proves that we too will rise some day. He is with us always and all days.
The cross was the payment and the empty tomb is the receipt.
If we believe He is the Lord and that He has risen from the dead, we will be saved (Romans 10:9,10). Have you received Him as your Lord and Savior? Only Jesus can save us from our sins. Only Jesus can get us to heaven. Trust Him today!
Prayer: Thank you Father for Your love for the world. I believe Jesus is alive today. Give me the strength and anointing to serve Him. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
Application: Tell someone about the fact that Jesus loves them and He proved it by being crucified, and rising from the dead.
Encounter: Because Jesus lives, receive His grace, anointing and power to live the Christian life today.
