“For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again for fear… What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril or sword? Nay, in all thes things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us… I am persuaded that neither death, nor life.. nor things present, nor things to come,… shall be able to seperate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans. 8.
Calvary made way for resurrection power. Is this resurrection power working in your life?
“ WE ARE CRUCIFIED followers of a crucified Lord. We are crucified to the world, and the world to us, by the Cross of Christ. But, besides this, we have to take up our cross and bear it. It is not His cross we bear. None but He could bear that. It is a cross of our own,, calling us to self-denial, and world-denial; pointing out to us a path of humiliation, trial, weakness, reproach, such as our Master trod-not of our making, nevertheless, our cross, it is the true badge of discipleship, the genuine mark of authentic service.”- Horatio Bonar
