VERSE:
When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and
the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will
come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory."
-- 1 Corinthians 15:54
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=1+Corinthians+15:54
THOUGHT:
As Christians, even if our bodies die, we don't! Our physical
death just means that we will be given immortal bodies. Christ will
raise us up and clothe us with immortality. Death will not have a
hold on us because we are God's children. Victory is ours. Death
does not have the final word; Jesus does, and he says, "Rise!"
PRAYER:
Father, I know that my physical earthly body is fragile. Dear
Father, I know that no matter how good a shape I stay in or how
careful I am about my health, I cannot stop the process of physical
death in my body. But I am excited to know that even though my
physical body will fail, you won't fail. Even though my human body
is fragile, I know you are powerful and triumphant. Father, I do
look forward to the day of victory when death is swallowed up by
the glory and power of Jesus' return for me and his transformation
of me. Until that day, dear God, I serve you with joy as I look
forward to seeing you face to face. In Jesus' mighty name I pray.
Amen.
