Not So Fast!

 The women who had come with Jesus from Galilee followed Joseph and saw the tomb and how his body was laid in it. Then they went home and prepared spices and perfumes. But they rested on the Sabbath in obedience to the commandment” (Luke 23:55-56).

Your Encouragement

Wait a minute! Do not give up so fast. It is not the end of the story. Though they have sealed the tomb, you’ll live to see another day.

Christ has fulfilled every word spoken about Him in the Old Testament scriptures up to the cross and in His death and burial. The last piece of the divine saga is yet to unfold gloriously.

So ladies, hold on with your spices. You’ll not find a corpse to embalm tomorrow, although your intentions are noble. You will be in for the surprise of your lives. The day has set the entire world for the shock waves of the announcement to come from the angels.

You, who are His faithful ones, dejected and hiding, thinking about what is next for your lives, brace yourselves for a rude awakening. You have work to do when everything comes together for you after tomorrow – a witness to give to the world. The commission upon which you’ll hang your lives will come soon, and you will know and experience the power of God for a courageous living for His glory.

So, hope and peace to you and your family, my friend, as you expect tomorrow and what it brings your way.
