Title: The Power of a Risen Life
Scripture:
Galatians 2:20 – “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”
Devotional Thought:
Easter isn’t just a weekend. It is not just a festival or ceremony. It’s a lifestyle. The resurrection wasn’t meant to be celebrated once a year—it’s meant to be lived every day. Our faith is established on the resurrection, so our daily life should reflect the new life experience it brings.
When Christ rose, He gave us more than forgiveness. He gave us Himself. He didn't just die to atone our sins but to raise us up in victory over and above the power of the flesh, sin and death. The risen life is one where Jesus lives through us. His peace becomes our strength. His wisdom becomes our direction. His Spirit becomes our power.
The challenge is to surrender. To allow our will, ego, and control to be nailed to the cross—so His Spirit can fully live in us. That’s where transformation happens. That’s where the risen life begins.
Reflection:
Do you want to live this risen live?
Have you surrendered every area of your life to the One who lives in you?
Prayer:
Risen Christ, I yield every part of my life to You. Live through me today. Let my words, thoughts, and choices reflect the power of Your resurrection now and forever more. Amen.
