Verse
of the Week
“I am He that

NKJV)
April 15th– 21st
Scripture
Reading: Luke 24:11; John 20:27-30, Revelation 1:18
Jesus Lives
News
reached the Disciples that the tomb was empty and Jesus was risen from the
dead. It quickly spread across the land, but sounded like nonsense to
those who heard and they simply didn’t believe, including the disciples He
taught. (Luke 24:11 NLT)
Suddenly,
Jesus appeared before them in a room that was locked from the inside. Filled with fear, disbelief and wonder, had
they seen a ghost?
Showing
His wounds, the Disciples eyes were opened that Jesus was alive! He lives …
just as He said. Thomas was not with the
other disciples when Christ first appeared, but in explaining that Christ had
risen from the dead in disbelief he said,
“I won’t
believe it unless I see the nail wounds in His hands,
put my
fingers into them, and place my hand into the wound in His side.”
(John 20:25
NLT).
Eight
days later Thomas did just that … he touched the Risen Savior and truly came to
believe. Jesus had risen and was very
much alive! The sad thing is that he
didn’t believe Christ’s words, but wanted additional proof.
Just
as it was then, the evidence of Jesus’ resurrection is overwhelming. Testimony upon testimony point out the steps
of Jesus after He rose from the grave, and the miraculous transformation of
lives He’s still doing today for those who believe.
“I am He that
lives, and was dead. Behold, I am alive
forevermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” (Revelation 1:18
NKJV)
Friend,
Christ really rose from the grave and lives today. What will it take for you to believe that
Jesus lives? Stop doubting! As Jesus told Thomas,
Don’t
be an unbeliever, believe! (cw/jw)
