"I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever!"
Revelation 1:18
Yesterday we looked at Jesus' death and what it means for us, today, let's look at His resurrection. I already wrote a bit about the resurrection a few days ago but it is sooo pivotal that it's worth repeating!!
When Jesus died on the cross, the whole world shook (Matthew 27:54), it certainly wasn't the death of an ordinary human. He was the only unique One that is both Human and God. Therefore, although He died a real death and bled real blood, only His body died. His Spirit did not die because He is also the eternal God. Three days after His death, His body rose from the tomb, and was made new. This is a foreshadow of what will happen to our bodies one day :)

Anyways, Jesus is ALIVE and living in Heaven. John saw Him there during the visions he saw that he recorded in the book of Revelation. He is not dead. He is working in our lives and in this world through His Spirit whom He has given us. We do not serve and worship a dead god but A LIVING GOD!!
How is God alive in your life? Does the Holy Spirit inside of you make you feel more alive? I know that when He came to live in me, I felt more alive, like my life was significant and worthy. He can do that for you too! All you have to do is ask :)
In His Love,
A
