You might think nothing is happening !

Do you know as a Son or Daughter of God what comes against you is temporary? I know when you are in the midst of something is doesn't feel that way or look it! We are approaching Easter Sunday and we are celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus our Lord! Now 2,000 years ago it may not of looked that way for his disciple's, or his mother, and others that knew Jesus. He would say things to them  about his death, and his resurrection, but it didn't register with them. It looked like he was just dead to them, they grieved and were saddened ! To the world  that they were in at that time Jesus was defeated, even  more so to the ones that killed him!  The devil thought he won, Jesus enemies that hated him thought he was defeated. The enemies of the cross viewed him just as a natural man with a story, one of which they never believed! So of course when Jesus died, they thought it was over and that nothing was happening!

So when they placed him in that tomb wrapped in linen cloths he was  just  a natural man to them, he was as good as dead, forever! Now that we are on the other side of it, thousands of years later we can read about it in the bible. For us today as believers its a different reaction than those of that time that loved Jesus!

He let the devil think he won ! Jesus couldn't move ahead of the Fathers assignment, can you just imagine the plan that they talked about right from the beginning, WOW !  Jesus was to rise on the 3rd day, Now this is what I'm getting at, it must of seemed like a long 3 days to those who loved him, and missed him. They thought they had lost him forever, they were not putting the pieces of the things he spoke to them together. Sometimes in your life, it might seem like nothing is happening with your  fiances, your sickness, your relationships, don't be moved something is happening! 

On the 3rd day it changed everything for us, Death was defeated ! Jesus stood out from those grave clothes like a man and walked like our GOD, like he said he would! He went to the grave as a man, but rose as LORD OF LORDS, KING OF KINGS! He is the King Jesus. We should not be worrying that nothing is happening, we have a hope that our God is with us, he loves us, he died and rose again so we can have life in Him. 

The Grave couldn't hold him, the devil couldn't hold him! Because he lives, we live, I live, Jesus is alive forever ! So let it bring hope and new beginnings to you that he did all this so you couldn't be held back from anything, anyone. He has defeated all your enemies you just have to believe something is happening! So when we go through something its just temporary, HE HAS RISEN !

Luk 24:39  Look at my hands; look at my feet--it's really me. Touch me. Look me over from head to toe. A ghost doesn't have muscle and bone like this."

Luk 24:44  Then he said, "Everything I told you while I was with you comes to this: All the things written about me in the Law of Moses, in the Prophets, and in the Psalms have to be fulfilled."

Luk 24:46  He said, "You can see now how it is written that the Messiah suffers, rises from the dead on the third day,

Luk 24:47  and then a total life-change through the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed in his name to all nations--starting from here, from Jerusalem!
