He is Still Risen...

The Apostle Paul says in Romans 8:32…

“He did not even spare His own Son but offered Him up for us all; how will He not also with Him grant us everything?”

We celebrated our most sacred of holidays yesterday as followers of Christ: Easter and the Resurrection Sunday. It is a celebration of God offering up His One and Only Son on our behalf. Churches all over the world were gathered together, overflowing with the regular members and thousands of others who maybe only make it to church that one day of the year. It was a sacred gathering to celebrate the Risen Savior. And as we prepared to gather together, I had this wonderful thought (based on the verse above)… 

"The fact of the resurrection should remind us that He sacrificed so much to give us eternal life that we can rest secure in the knowledge that He will also give us abundant life!"

As we labor in the sacred effort of making Christ known to every people, tongue, tribe, and nation, let us not forget that He is still risen. And He is constantly at the right hand of the Father interceding for us and all who have come to trust and have faith in His Name, Person and what He did on the cross. He is not only risen, He is risen forever and will fulfil all His wonderful promises. Not one of them will fail. He saves fully and abundantly! (John 10:10).

I pray you know the risen Savior.  And if you do, I pray you make Him known and help people experience the abundant life He promises.

He is risen…still!
