FAITH CAPSULE: Are you a once a year of celebration of Jesus Christ?

Matthew 28

Celebration of Jesus’ going to cross and rising up is the ACTION OF JOY which is celebrating with faith. (Jesus saw paralytic man and friend’s action as faith for healing. It is written, “And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.” (Mark 2:4-5)) Celebrating with faith must be with KNOWLEDGE. Without knowledge there be no answer for celebrating of Jesus Christ’s rising from the grave. (Man perish without knowledge) Celebrating with faith should be every moment of life by knowing that Jesus Christ paid it all on the cross and rose up for man to have life abundantly.
Celebrating the suffering, death and rising of Jesus Christ should be meditating or thinking on the passion of Jesus Christ. Meditating the passion of Jesus Christ is to always think, to be reflecting on what Jesus Christ has done. Celebrating while meditating passion of Jesus Christ will make man to focus and be-living for God.
It is very important to know (not to know about) celebrating by meditating the passion of Jesus Christ and not perish. Bible says, “God so loved the world that he gave his only Son so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world might be saved through him.” (John 3,16-17)
Celebrating by meditating the passion of Christ regularly changes the lives of those who practice. Are you a once a year of celebration of Jesus Christ? Is your celebration of Jesus a mark of religion? With knowledge, celebrate by meditating the passion of Jesus Christ to experience such as:
Celebrating the passion of Jesus does not lead to pessimism (doubt) but takes away disappointment and hopelessness.
Celebrating passion of Jesus Christ is keeping alive the memory of death and rise of Jesus for man.
Celebrating passion of Jesus Christ is not think of self but of God’s will.
Celebrating passion of Jesus Christ is turning to God in faith.
Celebrating passion of Jesus Christ is the power that saves.
Celebration of the passion of Jesus Christ is a reality that should grow in us. The more man abandon self to meditating passion of Christ, the more it becomes Jesus living in man. Galatians 2:20 is all that celebrating passion of Jesus Christ should be centered of in man as it is written, “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”

Prayer for today: Ask God for the grace to know more of Him and not miss out from God’s divine assignment.
