Christ is risen! He is risen, indeed. Alleluia!
That truth changes everything! Jesus rose from the dead triumphant over sin, death and the devil so that you can enjoy his victory every day. You are not meant to live with sin, death and the devil.
Every day we will experience death. From the death of loved ones and friends to the diseases and sicknesses we struggle with to the difficult relationships in our lives. All of these are death in some fashion. But because Jesus has conquered death we know that eternal life is already ours. We know how our story ends which changes how we experience death every day. So we join the apostle Paul in proclaiming, “Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?”
