We went to a Good Friday service this year where both my husband and I were to speak on one of the 7 statements Christ made from the cross. It was a very good service. But, during the service I began to ask myself -- what were the disciples doing on the 3 days Christ was in the tomb?
Christ told his disciples in John 2 "...destroy this temple, and I will raise it up again in three days." So, what the disciples SHOULD have been doing, was waiting expectantly and praising God for the fulfillment of his word. However, we see that after 3 days they came looking for the body of Christ. Had they learned nothing after walking with him 3 years?
They should have gone to the tomb EXPECTING it to be empty!
And what about us? What are we doing while waiting on God to move? When we give our situation over to God, we should immediately begin giving Him the praise because the battle is already won, the victory is ours! EXPECT that it's a "done deal!"
My bible says that the promises of God are yes and amen AND since He is not a man that he should lie -- we KNOW that "ALL things work together for the good of them that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. We KNOW that He will supply all of our needs according to his riches and glory... we KNOW that weeping may in endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Why? Because God said so.
God said it. I believe it. That settles it! |
