”and what is the exceeding greatness of His power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of His mighty power, which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,“ Ephesians 1:19-20 KJV. Today we celebrate another Easter, where we rejoice in the triumphant and glorious resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. We join with the apostle in praising God for His mighty power that raised Jesus from the dead. And how thankful we are that we serve a Risen Saviour! Thank God, we are not bowing before a shrine that holds the physical remains of our Lord, as most other religions do. Instead, we worship Him as the highly exalted Saviour Who is alive and seated at the Father’s right hand. But let us consider, the very same power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead is also the power that works in us. Can we even begin to comprehend what this should mean to us? Every day we face our human weakness. Over and over we are confronted by the profound weakness of this mortal existence. And yet, as true believers, we are reminded here that the same power which raised Jesus from the dead is working in us! Let us be encouraged and praise God that He has made His resurrection power available to us.
