Blog Y3 840 - "Jesus Lives within Me"
He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matthew 28:6.
“As He said”, these words prove that He is the God who created the whole world by His Word. Whatever our God speaks, it surely comes to pass.
Our Lord Jesus Christ foretold His crucifixion and resurrection many times. Yet, His disciples did not fully understand or realize what was about to happen. Even on the day of His resurrection, they were hiding behind closed doors, afraid of the authorities, unable to believe that He had truly risen.
But today, we know with certainty: He is alive!
Now we must reflect, does our life show that our loving Jesus is alive and living within us, just as He promised?
Let us boldly proclaim:
Our Lord Jesus is alive!
Let our lives be the evidence that Jesus Christ lives.
My Savior is alive!
Let this be our joyful shout and our unshakable declaration.
Reflection: Am I allowing the truth of His risen life to shape my thoughts and actions, showing through my daily walk that the Savior who conquered death is truly alive within me?

John 19:23-24, Roman soldiers gambled for Jesus' seamless tunic at the foot of the cross after his crucifixion. Instead of tearing his garments, they cast lots to decide who would keep the seamless robe. This act fulfilled the prophecy in Psalm 22:18, "They divide my clothes among them and cast lots for my garment."
ReplyDeleteBut we all got the garment of salvation because of the grace of the LAMB on the cross!
Help live a life worthy of your calling ,Lord! Amen
