VERSE:
But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits
of those who have fallen asleep.
-- 1 Corinthians 15:20
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=1+Corinthians+15:20
THOUGHT:
"Why do you seek the living among the dead?" These words of the
angel to the women who came to Jesus' tomb are also God's words to
us. Jesus is risen! Not only that, he is the firstfruits from the
dead. He is the guarantee that God's harvest will happen; he is our
assurance that we, too, will be raised. Death no longer has a hold
on us! We are God's eternal children and death cannot separate us
from his presence or his love!
PRAYER:
Father God, I praise you for your redeeming grace. I rejoice in
your conquest over Satan and over his power to wound and destroy
through death. I thank you for your power over the grave. Thank you
for raising Jesus from the dead and giving me the assurance of life
forever with you. Please bless me, dear Father, with a life that
reflects the power that you have now working in me. In Jesus' name
I pray. Amen.
