Christian Reflection and Prayer

BECAUSE CHRIST WAS RAISED FROM THE DEAD

Scripture: The Resurrection (Matthew 28: 1-20)

Reflection:

When Christ was raised form the dead!

a. It showed us how God demonstrated His acceptance
of Jesus as a sacrifice for our sins! (Ro 8:33-34)
b. It gives us power in our Christian Life.(Ep 1:18-20)
c. It gives us great that we will be resurrected (Ro 8:11-13; Ph 2:
12-13; 4:13; Ep 3:20; 6:10)
d. It requires complete loyalty. Then our lives and services
belong to Jesus. (Ro 14:7-8; 2 Co 5:15)
HAVE YOU ACCEPTED HIS RESURRECTION?


Prayer:

Easter Prayer for Renewal

Lord, send me a surprise.
One that catches me off guard
and makes me wonder.
Like Easter.

Send me a resurrection
when everything looks dead and buried.
Send me light
when the night seems too long.

Send me spring
when the cold and frozen season
seems endless.

Send me an idea
when my mind is empty.
Send me a thing to do
when I am just waiting around.

Send me a new friend
when I am alone.
Send me peace
when I'm afraid.

Send me a future
when it looks hopeless.
Send me Your resurrection
when I die, Jesus.
