“HALLELUJAH, JESUS HAS RISEN!”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“Praised be God, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, who, in keeping with his great mercy, has caused us, through the resurrection of Yeshua the Messiah from the dead, to be born again to a living hope,” (1 Peter 1:3)

Praised, honored and blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ the Messiah! By His boundless mercy we have been born again to an ever-living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

Jesus has risen! Hallelujah! His rising up from the dead is what gives us the hope of all that we believe as truth. His rising up from the dead proves that indeed He is God and that our belief in Him offers us salvation.

Can you imagine what it would have been like if Jesus never rose from the dead?

What defeated and frustrated lives we would be living now! 1 Corinthians 15 describes what some of the results would have been.

Our faith would be in vain. It would be mere delusion, futile and fruitless, devoid of truth, empty, imaginary and unfounded. (vv. 14,17)

All our preaching would be in vain. Everything we would ever have to say would amount to nothing. (v. 14)

We ourselves would have no guarantee of resurrection. (vv. 12-13, 20-23)
We would still be under the control of sin and would have to make animal sacrifices to pay for it. (v. 17)

All those who have lived trusting in Him and His power would perish. (v. 18)
We would have hope only in this life which would be very sad. (v. 19)

We would be vainly risking our lives for the Lord. (vv. 30-32)
All the promises would be in vain. (vv. 50-54)

Prophecies of death being swallowed up would be false. (vv. 55-56) But glory be to God! Jesus Christ has risen from the dead.
The grave could not keep Him because of His sinless, pure life.

Death could not have its sting upon Him and hold Him down. Because He is risen, He has become the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep in death.

When Jesus comes in the twinkling of an eye at the rapture, all those who are dead in Christ will rise again. Will you be counted among those who will rise again?

It is only by the repentance of all your sins and belief in the saving power of the Lord Jesus, that you will be saved. Hebrews 7:25 says, “Therefore He is able also to save to the uttermost, completely, perfectly, finally, and for all time and eternity those who come to God through Him, since He is always living to make petition to God and intercede with Him and intervene for them.”

The resurrection power of the Lord is available to you in Christ Jesus so that you will be able to live a victorious life with the power and authority that He has won for you.

THANKS BE TO GOD FOR HIS DIVINE GIFT OF SALVATION IN CHRIST JESUS!

Everybody shout, “AMEN HALLELUJAH!”

Shalom and good morning.
