TOPIC: Defeating Death Like A Boss

Scripture:

Matthew 28:6 NKJV
He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

*Message*

After Jesus was killed and placed in the tomb, there was great silence everywhere. When it seems hope is lost, joy was silently brewing, gently approaching, reaching its climax when the KING of Glory resurrected gloriously from the grave – nothing could hold Him bound in darkness!

Hallelujah! Jesus is risen! Hallelujah! Glory to God!

The strength of His resurrection is a display of the truth of His words, that in Him is Life. We can believe for sure that He is KING over all, including death. Death has been successfully tormenting and traumatising mankind for many years. But the strength of Jesus’s resurrection humiliated death, stripped it of his powers, and rendered it disgraced.

In the strength of His resurrection, you, too, can humiliate death like a boss. You can forever enjoy eternal life that proceeds from God as you stay connected to Him in spirit and in truth, through faith in Jesus Christ. God is only interested in a relationship with mankind, possible through Jesus Christ. This is when life, the life God dispenses into your spirit, will keep empowering you to live the quality life He has ordained for you – a life that can’t be hindered by sin, satan, death, sickness, poverty, etc.

As you are connected to Him, you become a dispenser of life, chasing death (both spiritual death and its other expressions) away from your space. In the strength of His resurrection, go and make Jesus proud!

*Prayer*

Pray for a dead world to come into contact with the Life of Christ.
