Authentic Newness (Easter)
John 19:38-42, John 20:1-9
The word “new” has really been on my heart this Passion Week. Resurrection is about new.
As dark as it was in the Old Testament, as dark as it was in on Good Friday, that is how bright and new everything is today – because of the empty tomb, because of the Living Savior, Jesus Christ.
That heavy burden you’ve been dragging around? God the Son wants to move toward that painful place in your life where you can feel the most despair and destitute – and bring that exact place to life with His living newness.
Invite Jesus to meet you there now, then watch this teaching and celebrate His triumph!
How should those truths affect your life?
Seeing God’s awesomeness, the prophet Isaiah shrieked: “Woe is me, for I am ruined! Because I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips…” (Isaiah 6:5).
Bottom line? In Christ, we’re not better than anyone. We are simply and astonishingly forgiven.
Let’s get into this good news!
Does ‘vibrant’ or ‘life-giving’ describe your relationship with the Lord? If it doesn’t, don’t feel guilty.
Far better: Cast aside the self-condemnation and believe you are supposed to be right here, right now. Then, get ready for a fresh move of God in your life…
Let’s fire it up again!
Daniel 3 | I Am Not Smarter Than God
Amazing message coming this weekend, for when you have to take a tough stand. This is such an incredible passage that Jesus Christ pre-incarnate makes a stellar and moving appearance to stand with those who suffer for His name.
Stand for Jesus and Jesus will stand for you (Mt 10:32-33). It all happens in Daniel chapter 3 and is the next message in our Game Changers series. Please consider sharing this message with a friend who needs the confidence of “if God is for us, who can be against us?”
They will thank you and we thank the Lord for you! Love in our Savior, Pastor James
