BREAKING NEWS – Death is conquered by the King!
But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
1 Corinthians 15:20
Jesus died, Jesus rose again, Jesus is now alive….. Dwell on this thought. Jesus is alive, to claim heaven for his redeemed people. He has gone up before us to occupy our inheritance for us. He is our forerunner and representative. Beloved, heaven is yours, heaven is mine, because Jesus is “the man in possession” on our behalf. His pierced hand has taken hold of eternal bliss on the behalf of those for whom he shed his blood.
Jesus is in heaven making preparation for our coming. For He said, “I go to prepare a place for you.” Jesus took all these years to make heaven ready for us. The one who with a word made earth fit for created man, did not with a word make heaven fit for his regenerated, but went to heaven himself as a living Christ to see everything set in order for us.
Jesus is alive to intercede for us. What are all the prayers of saints compared with the prayers of the King of saints? When he prays— he of the pierced hands and feet, when he prays whom the Father loves so well, who by his obedience unto death, even the death on the cross— what a prevalence must dwell in his intercession! We trust not in a dumb, dead Christ, who could not speak for us, but we rest in an advocate whose eloquent pleadings before the throne of God can never be denied.
Hallelujah 🙌🏻
He is Alive …
