THE SAME POWER – Live Video and Devotion Premiere:
Did you know that the same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in us? God’s resurrection power is in us! That is true for everyone who receives Christ, simply by believing and walking in that power.
Take a few moments to reflect on the Truth of God’s Word:
- But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him. Acts 2:24
- When he died, he died once to break the power of sin. But now that he lives, he lives for the glory of God. So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus. Romans 6:10-11
- The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you. Romans 8:11
God loves each one of us so much that He filled His Son with the power to overcome death so that we could have eternal life. That power is the same, yesterday, today, and forever. And according to Scripture that same power is inside each one of us!
Don’t you just love that? Don’t you just feel the power that comes from those statements! Jesus overcame sin and death, for us, once and for all. It is really done. It. Is. Finished!
As believers it is not in our spiritual DNA to fear eternal death as a consequence of our sins, because God promises us forgiveness and life.
Death could not keep its hold on Jesus. And it can’t keep its hold on us!
