That you may know . . . the exceeding greatness of His power . . . which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead. - Ephesians 1:18-20, NKJV
God the Father split history in two when He flexed the divine, eternal muscle of His will and exerted His power on His Son’s behalf! How He must have eagerly anticipated and rejoiced in the vindication and resurrection of His Son! His power was so mightily tremendous that Jesus was:
Raised up from the dead!
Raised up without our sin!
Raised up to life!
Raised up through the walls of the tomb!
Raised up past the guards!
Raised up through all His invisible enemies!
Raised up to a position of authority over the entire universe! Raised up to be seated at the right hand of God!
Jesus was raised up! He’s alive!
From Just Give Me Jesus
