]]> The burial of Jesus is a blessing to you!
Because not only have you died with Him-
– you have been buried with Him.
In Bible times, when Jewish people died-
– they were immediately embalmed with special oils and wrapped in linen.
The body was hidden and buried in a tomb.
That is what Jesus has done with your old body of sin.
Not only have you been crucified with Christ, you have been buried with Christ.
Why the emphasis?
So that you will not be haunted by the ghost of guilt.
The devil will try to remind you what you were.
Don’t let him.
Don’t go prowling around in the dead bones of your old life.
It is gone by the grace of God!
Have the hounds of hell come after you with their accusations of guilt from past sin?
It’s time to make them turn tail and run back to the pit.
How do you do that?
The Word!
If you are being accused of something right now by the devil or his agents-
– know that you have confessed, repented and God has forgiven you!
Claim the authority God has given you and declare His Word back to those demons!

Why is the empty tomb so glorious? Empty tomb! Easter triumph!! Because it signifies more than just the fact that God raised Jesus from the dead. He raised you, too! – to walk “in newness of life” (Romans 6:4). I have come out of that grave. I have ascended. You have, too, if you are saved. Where is Christ today? Seated...

]]> “And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:6).
Why is the empty tomb so glorious? Empty tomb! Easter triumph!!
Because it signifies more than just the fact that God raised Jesus from the dead. He raised you, too!
– to walk “in newness of life” (Romans 6:4).
I have come out of that grave. I have ascended. You have, too, if you are saved. Where is Christ today?
Seated in the heavenlies. Where are you seated? In the same place (Eph 2:6-9).
You don’t have to die to go to heaven. In Christ
– You are already seated in the heavenlies right now!
We encourage our brothers and sisters by telling them-
– to keep looking up, when we should be saying, “Keep looking down!”
You’re already seated in the heavenlies! So you can look down on your problems!! You have a brand new life!
Take a moment and ask God to give you a brand new life! Or thank Him for
the one He has already given you!!
