He is Risen!

Title: He is Risen!


Scripture: Luke 24:1-12

Devotional:

On this Resurrection Sunday, we celebrate the most significant event in all of human history: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The stone that sealed His tomb was rolled away, and Jesus emerged victorious over sin and death. His resurrection was the ultimate proof that He is the Son of God and that His sacrifice on the cross was sufficient to pay for our sins.

As we reflect on the resurrection of Jesus, we must also remember the significance of the cross. The cross was the instrument of Jesus' death, but it was also the means by which He accomplished our salvation. He willingly took our sins upon Himself and suffered the punishment we deserved. But through His death and resurrection, He conquered sin and death and made a way for us to have eternal life.

Luke 24:1-12 tells the story of the women who went to Jesus' tomb on the morning of the third day. They found the stone rolled away and the tomb empty, and were met by two angels who declared to them that Jesus had risen from the dead. The women were filled with fear and amazement, but the angels reminded them of Jesus' own words, that He would rise again on the third day.

Like the women at the tomb, we too can be filled with fear and amazement at the reality of the resurrection. It is a mystery beyond our understanding, but one that we can rejoice in nonetheless. Through the resurrection of Jesus, we have the hope of eternal life and the assurance that our sins have been forgiven.

As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus today, let us also remember the sacrifice He made on the cross. Let us give thanks for His love and grace, and for the new life that we have in Him. Let us live each day in the knowledge that He is risen and that He is coming again.

Prayer:

Dear Lord, we thank You for the gift of Your Son and for His sacrifice on the cross. We praise You for the victory He won over sin and death through His resurrection. Help us to live each day in the knowledge of Your love and grace, and to share the good news of the gospel with those around us. In Jesus' name, amen.

Closing:

He is risen! Let us go forth in the joy and power of His resurrection, sharing the love and hope of Jesus Christ with all those around us.

In HIS Service,
