Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee there you will see him. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. “But the angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. His statement was made while Jesus was still alive on earth, but how much more confidence do we have knowing that Christ died, rose again, and now sits at the right hand of God? Matthew 28:6 Pinterest John 1:29Īmen to that! John the baptist said those words, and how right he was. What an incredible declaration! Even more so considering this passage is from Job, who experienced the devastating loss of family, friends, possessions, and even his own health. Read that again! The same power in Christ is alive in you! Job 19:25 Pinterest If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.” “But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Yet, his love was great enough that he pushed aside his power and authority to die a painful death. However, Jesus had all the power and strength of the Father and he could have defended himself. So often we get the picture of Jesus being a victim – and he certainly was treated horrifically and unjustly. This is such a powerful passage of scripture. This charge I have received from my Father.” – John 10:17-18 I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. “For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again. He has power over death and he cares deeply about what troubles us. Easter is a great time to get perspective on the trials in our own lives. The kids are fussy, the laundry hasn’t been done in weeks, your aging parents need more and more care every day, the list goes on and on. John 11:25-26 PinterestĪmen! It’s so easy to get weighed down by big scary things in our lives, and even the little, everyday things. Christ’s death on the cross was never “Plan B,” as hard as that is to comprehend at times. The words of Isaiah 53:5 are a clear example of God’s plan long before it came to fruition.
EASTER BIBLE VERSE FULL
Isaiah is full of prophecies of Christ’s coming, his death, resurrection, and even his second coming. “But he was pierced for our transgressions he was crushed for our iniquities upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.” Who, besides God, could have seen the unfathomable beauty in such a gruesome death? Who, besides God, could comprehend the timing of it all? Easter morning, when the tomb was discovered empty, is the ultimate fulfillment of everything being made beautiful in time. This may not be your typical Easter scripture, but I love this Old Testament verse in the context of the cross. Let these words resonate in your soul and become the meditation of your heart! Ecclesiastes 3:11 Pinterest Here are 10 beautiful scriptures you can pray through this Easter. There are a dozen different ways to observe this holiday, but as long as we’re coming back to the Bible and the timeless truths of God, we can’t go wrong. No matter where you’re at in your faith journey, the truth of Jesus’ saving work is for you! Without the sinless life Jesus led, his sacrifice on the cross, and his triumph over death itself, our faith is meaningless. Still others might be new to the faith, or perhaps returning to the faith after years of being away. Everyone celebrates differently, with some of us observing lent while others simply focus their attention on the death and resurrection of Christ during their Bible studies and prayer time.
