It's Friday . . .
03/21/08 09:39 AM
Your life, your relationships, your marriage, your
family, your finances, your job, your ministry -
they all might feel like . . . like a Friday,
almost 2000 years ago. Dark, painful, difficult,
hard, sad. Don't lose hope.
Ephesians 1:19-20, "I pray that you will begin to understand the incredible greatness of his power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms."
This passage says that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead is available for the day-to-day challenges of people who trust in that power. The very same power that burst through the tomb, that raised Jesus from the dead, that upset all of history. . . the same power that brought Jesus back from the dead is available to anyone humble enough to ask for that power to come into their lives and who by faith take a step and open themselves up to that power of God. Resurrection power is available to you.
It may be Friday. . . but Sunday's comin'!
