Easter is a time to remember the sacrifice of Christ for us; the sacrifice that made His Name the greatest Name in heaven and on earth. Traditions and practices over the years are gradually making us loose sight of the true essence of easter.
This post is an attempt to refocus and redirect our minds back to the reason for the season, Jesus Christ.
The greatest sacrifice ever made was Christ becoming man and coming to suffer and die for our salvation and redemption.
John 15:13
“Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends.
Being ignorant of His sacrifice automatically makes you ignorant of what it has made available for you. There is absolutely nothing you desire that the blood of Jesus can not obtain.
Today is a commemoration of the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ and as you reminisce on the great sacrifice He made, tap fully into everything that has been made available for you as a reason of the death of Christ on the cross.
The death of Jesus Christ is the greatest demonstration of love and it has called us out of every tribe and nation and His blood has purchased us. The greatest benefit of this death is Salvation but even beyond salvation, Christ wants us to be happy and His blood takes care of that. Everything you want is tied to Him.
2 Corinthians 8:9
For you are recognizing [more clearly] the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [His astonishing kindness, His generosity, His gracious favor], that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that by His poverty you might become rich (abundantly blessed)
As we celebrate this year’s easter, I pray that we encounter this great Love that made life worth living and that we begin to experience and enjoy everything Christ has given us access to. Amen.
