"For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness." 2 Samuel 22:29
It's Palm Sunday!! A day of great power-------- a day marked as that of triumph, triumphant entry into Jerusalem by Christ over 2,000 years ago in readiness for his resurrection that gives us power over sin and the works of sin.
The power of resurrection is the ability and energy we have through Christ to control situations; the energy to change the lives of the people around us and bring them to the love of God. It is the power to live as a reflection of God through Christ Jesus. It is the power to live in holiness and in truth; to do the right thing.
The power of living for Christ gives us the strength that the believer needs to be able to succeed in his Christian life.
A lot of us are afraid of so many things - the dark, financial handicap, poverty, greatness, been single, plagues and so many of those things that befalls man. It is fear and lack of power that makes man to give up hope and life. It i this lack of power that makes us to give up that most precious gift that God has given us - our life.
Having the power of His resurrection gives us victory over fear and instead of fear we have strength and hope to live and celebrate each day though the great Grace of God.
The power of resurrection gives the believer the power to grow our faith and hope in Christ Jesus. The power of resurrection gives us peace - a peace that no man or thing in this world can never give. This power gives us the strength to move.
