Daily Huddle - Sun Apr 21, 2019 Easter Morning

Love you all, praying for you! 
 
What’s everybody talking about this morning?   You’ve been in the office after a last second shot the night before won a championship.  And you could sense the buzz around the office.  Are you kidding me?  What could compare with what happened this morning? 
 
The greatest power shift ever.  The impossible just happened!  Imagine a state penitentiary completely emptied – with every single inmate pardoned and released in one morning!  Now imagine 8 billion people in prison – and every last one – set free.  Imagine death having no more power, the grave losing all its fear, and sin having no control anymore.   It just happened! 
 
What we were powerless to do – pay for ourselves.  Jesus just did!  Our sin disqualified us forever from a Holy God.  We were guilty, convicted, condemned.  His pardon set us free!  His death replaces ours.  He descended to the lower regions of the earth and took captivity captive.  The greatest power shift in human history.  We are no longer slaves to sin, we no longer fear death and the grave, hell and the lake of fire. 
 
Whoever believes in the Name of the LORD, Jesus Christ will be saved!  Not only eternity in heaven, and saved from hell...  Sin no longer has control over us!  We are free!
 
All praise and honor to the Lamb of God who was slain – who has taken away the sin of the world.  Jesus is risen!  All praise to God.  Jesus is risen!
 
Love you all,
