He Is Risen

He Is Risen

Matthew 28

1 Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door,[a] and sat on it. 3 His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. 4 And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like dead men. 5 But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. 6 He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come; see the place where the Lord lay. 7 And go quickly and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead, and indeed He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him. Behold, I have told you.”

Three little words HE IS RISEN, hold the Power of God, and the hope of man. HE the True and Only Begotten SON of the Living God. IS – both past and present tense. RISEN, through the very power and will of God, this perfect lamb was raised from the Dead, the first fruits of that which is yet to come.

Here these words – HE IS RISEN and know beyond the shadow of a doubt that if you KNOW CHRIST, you too will be raised up. Praise God – both the Cross and the tomb are now empty, we serve a Risen Savior – that should put a smile on your face this Morning and Joy in your heart…
