Read Mark 16:1-8. Key Verse: But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here."
Resurrection power! The power of the Creator to make all things can make the dead rise from the dead and that is what we celebrate today. To the women first, then the disciples, the message at first was not believed because fear is a powerful foe to defeat. Yet, in resurrection, God defeated more than fear, God defeated sin and God defeated death.
The resurrection message is for all days not just Easter Sunday and the power of resurrection is ours in all things even our churches. We who proclaim resurrection need to claim resurrection!
PRAYER: Loving God of Resurrection Power bring to my life and the life of my church, new, wonderful, compassionate, wonder-working life! In the Name of the Resurrected One I pray, amen.
