For I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth;
Job 19:25
In the book of Job, we find a man who faced unimaginable suffering and loss, yet maintained his faith and trust in God. In the midst of his trials, Job expresses his confidence in the reality of his Redeemer, who he knows will ultimately bring him to a place of restoration and redemption.
As we celebrate Easter today, the hope and assurance we have in the resurrection of Jesus Christ gives us the confidence in the victory of over sin and death.
Easter morning marks the culmination of God’s redemptive plan, as Jesus Christ rises from the dead, conquering the power of sin and death once and for all. In the resurrection of Jesus, we find the fulfillment of God’s promise to bring new life and hope to all who believe in Him.
Just as Job looked forward to the day when his Redeemer would stand on the earth, so too do we eagerly anticipate the return of Christ, when He will establish His kingdom in its fullness and bring about the ultimate restoration of all things. In the resurrection of Jesus, we see a glimpse of the future glory that awaits us as children of God.
Today, fix your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith. Be filled with gratitude and joy as you remember His victory over sin and death, and be inspired to live in faith and hope in the power of His resurrection.
He is risen!
Pray
Lord, thank You for the hope and assurance in the resurrection. Help me to fix my eyes on You, the author and finisher of faith. May I be filled with gratitude and joy as I celebrate this wonderful Resurrection Day. In Jesus’ name, amen.
