Day 8: Resurrection Sunday
Early in the morning, some women went to the tomb to anoint Jesus' body with oils. They found the tomb open and an angel of the Lord sitting on the rolled-back stone, whose appearance was so astonishing it scared the guards into passing out. The angel announced that Jesus had risen, as He said He would, and invited them to see the empty tomb before sending them to tell the disciples. On their way, the resurrected Jesus met them, and they fell down and worshiped Him in awe. He instructed them to tell the disciples to meet Him in Galilee. The chief priests devised a plan to explain the supernatural event, but Jesus' resurrection could not be explained away. His resurrection became the catalyst for the disciples' life-changing work and fulfilled God's purpose, commissioning them to "Go and make disciples." The Hope of Heaven defeated death and swallowed up sin once and for all. Jesus’ suffering was meant to save us. From the grave to glory, the resurrection of Jesus is what transforms despair into eternal hope. Let’s celebrate our Risen King!
Reflection:
Today as you reflect, ask yourself this question…
How does Jesus defeating death give me confidence in my faith?
Take some time today to praise the Risen King. Thank Him that He defeated death and sin so you can live in victory today!
