Easter Sunday has passed..now what? The empty tomb is not just a one-day observation; it is a miracle that changed everything. The power of sin is broken as a result of Jesus’s crucifixion on the cross. His resurrection reveals that death has been conquered and confirms that He is the true Messiah. These powerful events open the door to new beginnings and eternal life for those who believe and accept this good news.
Some reminders we can bring into the Monday following Easter:
1. The resurrection is not just something that happened to Jesus, it also invites us into a new way of living. Once saved, you are a new creation. You are no longer bound by your mistakes and shortcomings.
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation” 2 Corinthians 5:17.
2. The resurrection itself wasn’t the end of the story. Jesus communicates a mission to His followers. Tell everyone you know about the good news!
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” Matthew 28:19.
3. The same power that was used to raise Jesus from the dead can give you life. The resurrection power can help us overcome setbacks, discouragement, and fear.
“that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,” Philippians 3:10
Easter Sunday should transform your Monday. The holiday comes once a year, but the crucifixion and resurrection must be celebrated daily. Don’t let this season pass without remembering the hope that is available to us through Jesus Christ. It is life-changing!
