IT'S IN THE AIR!

It’s in the air! Something is happening, can you feel it? It’s Monday, the day after a miracle happened, Jesus Christ came back from the dead.....He arose from His grave! I can imagine His disciples, they were ecstatic! Crying, shouting and praising God.....The Master is ALIVE! The Master has CONQUERED the grave! The Master has OVERCOME death! A new day has dawned, the old law has passed away.....a new covenant has arrived, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2) LIVES!

With that first light of a new day, it dawned on Satan that Jesus had trumped him! What? But.....but.......I thought......well, Satan, you thought wrong! Our God IS alive! Our God took something that you thought would break His back and turned it to the good for all people. His death and resurrection gave us a way out from your nasty little clutches....it’s in the air.......can you feel it? Something GREAT is coming.....can you feel it? Satan can, that’s why he’s running scared, that’s why he’s nipping at your heels like a little Chihuahua puppy....it’s in the air......

That Monday morning, the day dawned bright and clear, the birds were singing and the disciples were praising God for their new life in Christ Jesus! If you are saved, you also have new life.......so, let’s show the world that we are alive.......let’s shout at the top of our lungs.....let’s praise our Almighty Living God! When you were saved, you were given new life through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Realize that Satan no longer pulls your strings like a puppet master, you are a child of God, you have God the Holy Spirit living inside you....you have the power to say to Satan “the Lord rebuke you!” (Jude 1:9). If you let God use you for His glory and honor He will....you have an eternal home in heaven.....God has great plans for you!

It’s in the air! Can you feel it? God is moving! Something great is coming.....choose now to be part of something so big, that it will fail unless God is in it......if God is for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31).

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” Hebrews 12:1.

Dear Father,
My prayer to you today is on behalf of my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus who know that you are leading them to great things and they want more than anything to be obedient to you and follow unquestioningly where you are leading them. But, because of the little hindrances that Satan is throwing up in their way, they haven’t been able to untangle themselves completely. Father, my prayer is that You give them the knowledge that they have the power to overcome and the strength necessary to follow wherever You lead them. Amen
