Because He is Risen.

Do not lose sight of God.

He is able, because He is risen.

To conquer death, in your life. He is able. Every trial and every crisis. Every wrong attitude and mind-set. Every hurt and every pain. That cripples your life and brings death. All of it, He is able to conquer. He is able. In you. To bring life. Here and now.

Because He took you down into the grave, with Him. Into death. With Him. And you were crucified. With Him.

Now you no longer live. That life that brings death. The old self that strays from God, that strays from life. That old life, it no longer lives.

And that glorious morning, when the stone was rolled away from the tomb, and the tomb was empty. When Jesus walked as your risen Saviour, triumphing over death. When Christ rose from the dead. Then you also rose. With Him.

And that glorious moment, that is your glorious morning, when you acknowledge Christ as LORD of your life, His life rises. In you. Here and now. Eternal life, now. For you no longer live. Death no longer reigns. But Christ, Who conquered death once for all. That very Christ, He lives, in you. Here and now. And you have life.

Because Christ is risen, in you. Yes, He is risen, in you. He is risen indeed!
