Sunday morning while it was still dark,

soldiers stationed at the tomb of Jesus felt an intense earthquake.

Then they saw a great light.

A small star in the heavens announced Christ's birth, and a powerful light announced his rebirth.

7 verses of Matthew chapter 28 describe this epic event:

1 After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week,   Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

2 There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it.

3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.

4 The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

5 The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples: 'He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.' Now I have told you."

One commentary says:

"Today we remember a sudden burst of light that tore the veil of the bleak and forlorn darkness of that Sunday morning, revealing a risen LORD and conquering Messiah who defeated sin and death by crushing the head of the serpent."

My prayer for you:

May the same Power of Resurrection, that raised Jesus Christ from the dead quicken every "dead" area of your life and breathe new life into you and your family in Jesus name.

Please close your eyes and take this prayer like Blind Bartimaeus:

"Thou power of resurrection that raised Jesus from the dead, fall upon me now in the name of Jesus."

Go forward by fire.

Be An Overcomer
