Walking In Resurrection Power

As we celebrate this Resurrection Sunday, let us consider the amazing spiritual benefits  of some of the things that God has ratified concerning His salvation through His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ! Since Jesus came and defeated death and the grave, those who have believed in Him may also live their lives in a special way with the blessings of God each day “Walking In Resurrection Power”

Old Testament Scripture Reading: Daniel 12:1 – 2 (KJV)

Dan 12:1  And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

Dan 12:2  And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

New Testament Scripture Reading: John 20:24 – 31 (KJV)

Joh 20:24  But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

Joh 20:25  The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

Joh 20:26  And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

Joh 20:27  Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

Joh 20:28  And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

Joh 20:29  Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

Joh 20:30  And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

Joh 20:31  But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

Transforming Power Statements:

1) Walking in resurrection power means that if I believe that Jesus died and rose again, I can know that according to God’s promises I am saved from the penalty of death and I can know that all of the people who have died in Christ are secure in Jesus so that I do not have to grieve as those who have no hope.

2) We who believe in Christ’s resurrection have been given the Holy Spirit, Who teaches, guides, and comforts us in everyday life.

3) Because of the resurrection we who believe the Gospel, can be strong in the LORD and the power of HIS might and are protected by the whole armor of God by the Word and The Spirit.
