He is Risen!

Happy Easter Women of Noble Character,

This week you and I will celebrate the most important holiday (literally, “holy day”) on the Christian calendar. Easter is not primarily a secular observance designed to usher in the warmth of spring. Nor, is it simply a day for our children to hide eggs and make ourselves sick eating chocolate bunnies. Easter is, at its heart, the Christian celebration of Christ’s death, His resurrection from the dead, and all of the freedom and victory that those events entail. His Resurrection is the most important historical marker that lies at the center of everything we believe. If Christ was still dead in the tomb, we would have no hope for eternity. Praise God, Christ is not dead! Revelation 5:9-10:

9And they sang a new song:
"You are worthy to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
because you were slain,
and with your blood you purchased men for God
from every tribe and language and people and nation.
10You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God,
and they will reign on the earth."

You (Christ) WERE slain. That’s the past! Today Christ sits at the right hand of God, waiting for His Father to tell Him.....Go get your Bride! And, TODAY He brings Resurrection power to our lives! His resurrection is for us TODAY, as we receive forgiveness for our sins, see Him do the impossible in our lives, experience Him every day in a dynamic relationship (not just a religion), and as we experience His joy in every circumstance. Is Christ’s resurrection transforming your life TODAY? HE IS ALIVE!


Happy Easter,
Angela
