A Victorious Day
“And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye:
for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is
risen, as he said, Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and
tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before
you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. And they departed
quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his
disciples word.” (Matthew 28: 5-8 KJV)
What a power packed verse! “He is not here: for he is risen, as he said, Come,
see the place where the Lord lay.” Never has there been a day that was filled
with such joy, happiness and excitement than the day when Jesus rose from the
dead. What a victorious happy day! The Saviour of the world rose from the dead
just as He said He would.
Because He lives, we can live also when His precious atoning blood is applied to
our hearts for the forgiveness of our sins. As you celebrate the resurrection of
our Saviour, thank Him for His unconditional love. Thank Him for dying for you;
for paying the price for your sins. Let’s all of us make an extra effort to tell
everyone we see about our risen Saviour and the sacrifice that He made for us
and about His unconditional love.
Has the cleansing atoning blood of Jesus been applied to your heart for the
forgiveness of your sins? If not, I urge you; I plead with you to humble
yourself, admit that you are a sinner, ask God to forgive you and invite the
Christ of Calvary into your heart to be your personal Saviour. Thank You, Jesus,
for paying the price for our sins. Thank You that because You live we can live
with You in Heaven for all eternity. We love You, Jesus, and we appreciate all
that You have done for us.
