1 Peter 1:3
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
What of Today’s Verse…
The great truth about Jesus’ empty tomb is not that he is risen, but that he is living! His victory over death wasn’t short-lived, it was ultimate. He now lives to make intercession for us until he can return and bring us to his home. Our life is hidden with him so that no one and nothing can take it from us. When he appears, we will get to share in his never-ending glory. How can we not praise God for such grace?
Let us Pray:
Almighty God, I praise you from the bottom of my heart for your incredible and glorious grace that has brought eternal victory out of mortal anguish. Thank you for paying the price to make it so. You are marvellous beyond my words and worthy of more praise than all your children’s voices together can tell. My Hope will live forever because he is risen and reigning as Lord. To you be all honour, glory, and majesty forever, and ever, Amen!
