Because He Lives

         Because I live, you will live also - John 14:19.

            Christ who was raised from dead will never die again and He is alive forevermore. Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God – Romans 6:9,10. He is the Lord who lives and death has no longer mastery over Him. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore - Revelation 1:18.

                    He is the living God. We trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe - 1 Timothy 4:10. Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”. The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ - 1 Corinthians 15: 54-57 I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth - Job 19:25.

                   We will also live because He lives in us. I no longer live, but Christ lives in me - Galatians 2:20. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you - Romans 8:11. Let us live in the light of God. If we live in the light as God is in the light then we can share fellowship with each other - 1 John 1:7.                                                 

                                                          

PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the living God. We thank You as we live because You are alive. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
