SATAN IS DEFEATED, CHRIST HAS RISEN!!!

“I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.” Isaiah 14:13-15

JESUS AT THE TOMB 001When the voice of the mighty angel was heard at Christ’s tomb, saying, Thy Father calls Thee, the Saviour came forth from the grave by the life that was in Himself. Now was proved the truth of His words, “I lay down My life, that I might take it again. . . . I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again.”

Now was fulfilled the prophecy He had spoken to the priests and rulers, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” John 10:17-18 (KJV) John 2:19 (KJV) Over the rent sepulcher of Joseph, Christ had proclaimed in triumph, “I am the resurrection, and the life.” These words could be spoken only by the Deity. All created beings live by the will and power of God.

They are dependent recipients of the life of God. From the highest seraph to the humblest animate being, all are replenished from the Source of life. Only He who is one with God could say, I have power to lay down My life, and I have power to take it again. In His divinity, Christ possessed the power to break the bonds of death. Christ arose from the dead as the first fruits of those that slept. (E.G.White Desire Of Ages)

My friends OH WHAT HOPE, FOR A CHILD OF GOD. All created beings live by the will and power of God “If you abide in imagesme, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.” John 15:7 (ESV) And once your faith has allowed God’s promises to abide in you then

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?….For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:31-39 (KJV)

Satan did everything that was possible to BREAK CHRIST. But it was CHRIST, NOT SATAN who gave up his life so that you and I may have eternal life. Yes my friends RESURRECTION SUNDAY is imagestoday. Now, who is your allegiance with? A weak Satan that has only the power over us THAT WE GIVE HIM.

Remember this is the same WEAK SATAN that said “I will raise my throne above the stars of God.” Only to go down in defeat at Calvary when Christ said “IT IS FINISHED” Or is your allegiance with Jesus Christ who HAS THE POWER OVER DEATH. And with such power has laid it all out through His Spirit, for us if we believe. Life eternal awaits each of us.

Nothing in this world is worth losing out on the promises of God and what He has planned for the redeemed. “For Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.”1 Cor. 2:9 (KJV) It is time to finish Gods work here on earth. We cannot Serve Christ from a far distance.

We must have a close and personal relationship with Him, which means everything must be about the One who gave it all for us. If we seek Salvation we must take up HIS CROSS. “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up HIS CROSS and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?  For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done.” Matt. 16:24-27 (ESV)

 

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
