FAITH CAPSULE: See in the truth of the resurrection of Jesus.
Luke 24
The documentation of the life of Jesus is not a story but a secret that is not to be heard, to see and engaged, not to live a life of waste.
See in the word of God to receive, to become one that hears and sees.
The character of one who sees is to observe and be able to live by the word of God.
Jesus said, “The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.” (Luke 24:7)
Jesus repeated His story to those who will hear and begin to live by His word, but hardly anyone demonstrated having seen to receive what he said.
Does your way of life reflect the word God?
Are you living with boldness and character that Jesus will die and live for you to live life abundantly?
Celebrating the life of Jesus with no meaning or purpose is a waste of life for one with no understanding.
Celebrating death and rising should be every day.
Life should be every Good Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday, Tuesday, Monday and Sunday.
Live for God, a life Jesus purchased on the Calvary, is not to live life outside of God.
The character of living outside of life Jesus paid on the Calvary such will live in the fear that is not of God.
To fear the unknown instead of to fear God is the character of not being able to see in the word that Jesus has come so that all shall have life and have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)
To give life, He had to die and rise.
Fear denied to see in the truth of the resurrection of Jesus.
Jesus repeatedly told disciples about His resurrection, but after He died and rose, fear locked them. (John 20:19)
On the third day, those who sought Jesus at the tomb were overwhelmed with fear as a voice located them saying, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” (Luke 24:5)
Seek God diligently. Jesus is alive!
Prayerfully, make it a prayer life, asking God for His fear to become your way of life.
God said to ask it shall be.
God that says ask also said, “Then I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me forever, for the good of them and their children after them. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from doing them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me.”
Live to fear God will enable you to gain His promise.
To fear God is the root of wisdom.
One that fears God cannot be far from God that is near to all that embraces His word.
See in the word of God to live and claim His promises.
Prayer for today: Pray that you will see in the word of God.
