Greetings in the name of our living Messiah and Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! I am delighted to share the word of God after an exciting and awesome experience during the Easter celebrations!
Indeed He has risen with all power and authority for us to experience the same resurrection power everyday in our lives. The Bible says, " He told the disciples, "I have been given all authority in heaven and earth." ( Matthew 28:18 TLB).
The title of my message is: " EXPERIENCE THE POWER OF THE RESURRECTION EVERY DAY!"
The resurrection of Jesus Christ brings in new hope and a new beginning in our lives as Christians. The former things have passed and a new chapter has been opened for a new start in life. Forget about the former things and focus on the future and new start in life. ( Isaiah 43:18-19).
Christ's resurrection power has brought new life and a new beginning in our lives. I just want to quickly mention that, the resurrection is more than just an event that happened once in history. It is the source of the power you can experience in your own life, everyday.
The same resurrection power that brought Jesus from death to life is available to you, if you tap into it, you will see an amazing transformation in your own life, too. The scripture says, "Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us" ( Ephesians 3:20 KJV).
The resurrection power is inside you as a born again Christian!
Here is how you can experience resurrection power every day: USE THE POWER NOW, NOT JUST IN HEAVEN.
Your hope of the resurrection is not just for the future when you physically die and go to heaven; it is also for now, while you are living on earth and struggling with sin.
Make use of that God -given power to help you overcome sin right now, and every day you are alive. Regularly confess your sins, repent of them, and embrace the forgiveness and grace of God offers you to keep growing. ( 1 John 1:8-10).
TRADE RELIGION FOR A RELATIONSHIP.
Instead of pursuing hope through performing religious rituals, believing right doctrines, or doing good deeds, realize that those things are valuable yet can't produce hope.
Place your hope in a dynamic relationship with Jesus.
As you live for Him, relying on His resurrection power at work in your life, you will experience fulfillment of all God's purposes for you. Instead of focusing on what you can do for God, focus on what God can do through you.
The Bible says, "They will do things to make it look as if they are Christians.
But they will not receive the power that is for a Christian. Keep away from such people." ( 2 Timothy 3:5).
You need to live and experience the resurrection power every day.
SET ETERNAL PRIORITIES.
Ask God to help you see your life from His perspective.
Look beyond the world's values ( which are only temporary) to what has eternal value.
Base your decisions -for all aspects of your life - on what matters most in eternity.
Make the most of your time here on earth, keeping in mind that it will soon be over and you will be accountable to God for how you used your time here. Know and set the right priorities in life as a Christian.
Colossians 3:2 says, " Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth."
DIE TO SELF.
Remember that death must always precede resurrection.
Be willing to sacrifice whatever selfish desires and agendas you have that conflict with God's purposes for your life.
Decide to crucify your selfish attitudes and behaviors, so that God will raise you to new life by transforming your attitudes and behaviors into healthy ones that will help you grow to be more like Jesus.
Understand that, physically, you are born and live until you die, progressing toward physical death. But spiritually, you are dead until you are made alive through a relationship with Jesus, progressing toward eternal life. ( Matthew 16:24, John 3:1-16, Galatians 2:20, James 4:10).
EXPECT THE IMPOSSIBLE.
Just as the resurrection itself was impossible for anyone but God, the power behind the resurrection will take you into situations that are impossible for you to deal successfully with on your own. Expect God to challenge your faith when you ask for His resurrection power in your life, but know that if you trust Him, you will experience greater adventures than you can imagine. ( Philippians 3:10).
EXPERIENCE RESURRECTION PEACE.
You do not have to live with guilt and shame because of the resurrection 's power to forgive your sins.
Ask God to flood your soul the peace of knowing that you are in a right relationship with Him. Recognize that if you are deliberately sinning against God, you can't be in a right relationship with Him, so deal with your sin so that it doesn't block the peace God wants you to experience.
If you want to experience the peace Jesus offers, you must come to Him on His terms, being willing to live the way He leads you to live-the way that's best for you. Every day, repent of your sins, so that you can enjoy true peace. ( John 14:27, Philippians 4:6-7, Matthew 11:28).
EXPERIENCE RESURRECTION JOY.
The freedom from sin and hope in Jesus that the resurrection produced brings great joy into your life. If you allow your constantly changing circumstances to control your life, you can easily lose your happiness.
But if you allow the Holy Spirit to lead you, you will experience joy, which will remain constant despite your circumstances.
Unlike happiness, joy is more than an emotion - it's the ability to see beyond your circumstances to the God who has ultimate control over them, and always acts according to what's best for you. ( Nehemiah 8:10, Psalm 16:11).
USE YOUR RESURRECTION AUTHORITY.
Make full use the authority you have as a Christian to lead other people to eternal life.
The greater power on earth is to see a person become born again. So, as valuable as it is to minister to people's physical needs, don't stop there. Share the Gospel message with other people as often as you can.
By doing so, you will be helping to release God's resurrection power into their lives.
Do your best to live faithfully to represent Jesus well.
As other people see God at work in your life, they will be attracted to Him.
Every day, continue to pursue God passionately, and your passion for Him will spark the interest of others around you who can pursue Him themselves. ( Psalm 42:1-2, Mark 12:30).
EXPERIENCE RESURRECTION CONFIDENCE.
Since God is on your side, you can be absolutely confident in His love and you don't need to be afraid of what the future holds.
Whenever you encounter trouble in this failed world, trust God to lead you through it and accomplish a good purpose in the process.
Don't place your trust in anything lesser than God- like your family, your health, your job, your talents, your money, your husband, your wife or your friend.
Give your allegiance wholeheartedly to God, and you will experience confidence that can't be shaken by changing circumstances.( Psalm 118:6-10, Psalm 125:1-2, Psalm 20:7, 2 Corinthians 4:8-9).
EXPERIENCE RESURRECTION HOPE.
Your salvation means that you don't need to fear death.
Expect God to fulfill all the promises He makes in the Bible, and trust those promises in your life. Don't let little life's petty annoyances weigh you down; realize that that they are irrelevant compared to your eternal reward in heaven.
Live with heaven in mind- pursuing eternal values- and rejoice in the hope you can experience every day. ( Romans 5:3-5, Proverbs 3:5-6).
Experience the Power of Resurrection Every Day! You can live a victorious life in Christ's resurrection power every day.
Whatever, has been dead in your life, I command it to be resurrected right now in the name of Jesus! Let the resurrection power, resurrect and resuscitate every area of your life that was dead, in the name of Jesus!
May God richly bless you all!
