HE IS RISEN!!!

"And as they were afraid, and bowed their faces down to the earth, they said to them, Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, saying the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and the third day rise again? And they remembered His words ... " Luke 24:5-8

Jesus is risen, my friends. He is victorious over death and hell.. He has taken the keys of death and the grave and has gained all authority over them!! How marvelous is that man!?!?! Wayne shared today on Jesus being the Resurrection and the Life... would you go all out to share something that you really didn't believe in, that you didn't have evidence about? The greatest proof that Jesus has risen, is seen through the disciples of Christ... Do you think they would have, after fleeing from Jesus and going into hiding during His capture and crucifixion, gone all out to the point of risking their lives sharing Jesus to the rest of the world IF THEY HAD NOT SEEN THE RISEN CHRIST?! and the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead, lives WITHIN US!!! We don't have to be DEAD people.. cos Resurrection Power is within us!!

The evening service went along with that same theme as well... only it was the sharing of testimonies from all sorts of people... youth, young adults, adults, seniors and they all tell the same story... that we have resurrection power within us to do and believe for great and mighty things to happen!! I am so encouraged I tell you, the whole Sunday today was just totally totally awesome!! I know that there's nothing that my God cannot pull through for me, be it financial difficulties, physical weakness and illness, mental and emotional difficulties!! If only you would trust Him, He will heal you...

When it comes to choosing between 2 paths to take, would you follow a dead person, or someone who's alive? Jesus is alive today and forevermore... who would you choose? This just reminds me of a script that someone wrote during my time in ES...

Hands
Hands, God gave us hands
Hands to create
Hands to give
Hands to love
Hands to protect

But we have misused our hands
Hands made to create, now destroy
Hands made to give, now take away
Hands made to love, now hate
Hands made to protect, now let down

Jesus stretched out His hands to a dying world
But we took them and nailed them to a cross!
And on the third day He rose again

And now He stands before with His hands open
Would you reject Him? Or would you accept Him?
What would you do with the hands of Jesus?
