Have you seen lots of eggs today? Bunnies? Chicks? These cuddly symbols of spring always remind me of the new life we gain when we place our trust in Christ. Though all of us sin, God forgives us and made a way for us to have a close, personal relationship with Him.
Long ago, God allowed Jesus to be put to death. But, three days later, He arose from the tomb. What a glorious day it was! Defeating death, He gave us a chance to live forever by accepting Him as our Savior.
E- Emmanuel. A name for Jesus meaning "God with us."
Matthew 1:23
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name EMMANUEL, which being interpreted is, God with us.
A- Almighty. The God who gave us Jesus.
Revelation 1:8
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the ALMIGHTY.
S- Savior. Jesus covered the price for our sins, becoming the Savior of all who believe.
1 John 4:14
And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the SAVIOUR of the world.
T- Three. How many days Jesus said He'd rebuild the temple if it got destroyed. Little did they know, He was speaking of His own body!
John 2:19-21
Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in THREE days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? But he spake of the temple of his body.
E- Everlasting. How long our lives will become once we put our trust in the Lord.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have EVERLASTING life.
R- Resurrection. The most important part of the story. He didn't just die. He got back up! That's where the power lies. He defeated death, so now we can rise above sin and come into the lives God created us to live.
John 11:25
Jesus said unto her, I am the RESURRECTION, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
I pray you all had an exuberantly blessed EASTER!!!
