Crucified, Buried, and Resurrected!

DAY 8 OF 8

The Power of His Resurrection

Philippians 3:10a - That I may know Him and the power of His resurrection.

That I may know Him: This was the simple plea of Paul’s heart. It was a plea unknown to the legalist, who must necessarily focus on his own performance and status to find some kind of peace with God. But Paul wanted Jesus, not self.

To know Jesus is not the same as knowing His historical life; it is not the same as knowing correct doctrines regarding Jesus; it is not the same as knowing His moral example; and it is not the same as knowing His great work on our behalf.

And the power of His resurrection: Knowing Jesus means knowing this power, the new life that is imparted to us now, not only when we die.

· The power of His resurrection is an evidencing power. It is the evidence and seal that everything Jesus did and said was true.

· The power of His resurrection is a justifying power. It is the receipt and proof that the sacrifice of the cross was accepted as payment in full.

· The power of His resurrection is a life-giving power. It means that those who are connected with Jesus Christ receive the same resurrection life.

· The power of His resurrection is a consoling and comforting power. It promises that our friends and loved ones who are dead in Christ live with Him.

1 Peter 1:3-5 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

In light of all that Jesus has accomplished for us through His death, burial, and resurrection, let’s rejoice in His life today, and live in His resurrection power!
