He is Risen Indeed
Messiah Yeshua is risen! Hallelujah!
When on the tree of sacrifice, Yeshua, Jesus, took upon Himself the sins of the whole world, sicknesses, diseases, death and the grave. And with His work on the tree of sacrifice, He conquered all and we are set free!
You see Yeshua, broke the chains that are holding us to sin, sickness, disease, death, and the grave. He didn’t die because of being crucified, He died because sin causes death.
Yeshua being a sinless man, perfect in all ways, chose to take upon Himself all the sins of men from the beginning to the end. That includes you and me!
He freely laid His life down on our behalf. No one or thing took it from Him.
“No one has greater love than this: that he lay down his life for his friends” John 15:13
And the story isn’t over with His death. He conquered death and the grave by His resurrection! After three nights and days, His loved ones went to where they laid His body and found the tomb was empty. He wasn’t there!
On His way up to Jerusalem, He told His disciples:
“He said, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the ruling kohanim and the Torah scholars. They will condemn Him to death and hand Him over to the Gentiles. They will mock Him and spit on Him, scourge Him and kill Him. Yet after three days, He will rise again!”” Mark 10:33-34 TLV
He is Faithful and True!
Yeshua chose death so that we can choose life. Every person who has breath has a choice to make, there is no one who will escape from this decision. It is to be weighed by each individual, and no one can decide for you. And if you decide to put off making that decision, don’t be fooled you already made it.
So the choice is yours— life, accepting the work that Yeshua accomplished on your behalf? Or—not to accept Yeshua and consequently choose your sin which brings death and destruction?
For me, I choose life accepting Yeshua, Jesus as my Savior. I freely bind myself to Him and His sacrificial gift of love.
His love is transformational, and I purpose to live this life that He has given me to bring praise, honor and glory to Him. My sacrifice to Him is to deny any selfish desires and nail them to my tree of sacrifice and follow Him each and every day!
