Daily Hope and Inspiration from Pastor Mark

Sunday / Resurrection Day is coming! … Even though we seem to see a lot of questioning, and political challenges to our Christian faith today, Jesus faced even more intense opposition and persecution during His time. The various leaders of the time were out to protect either their religious and or military power. They were determined to not let this popular renegade named Jesus become a symbol of challenge, start a cause, and bring cultural change. Thank goodness even their best efforts could not stop the power of God! Empires have tried to bury and destroy the gospel for centuries, but no one can keep Jesus’ body in the grave. His resurrection power lives on and is spreading across the earth! It’s apparent in the lives of all who believe and take Jesus as their personal Savior. All I can share with you is to compare your own life before and after you accepted Christ as your Savior. My life is blessed beyond my wildest dreams since I began walking with Jesus and following His Word many years ago. …..Please, check your own experience…. . “What seemed at first a flimsy reed, has proved to be the loving and powerful hand of God.” Big Book pg 28. Lord, thank You for Jesus and the promise of eternal life when we make Him our Lord and Savior, AMEN. “So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may come and steal the body and tell the people that he has been raised from the dead. This last deception will be worse than the first. Take a guard, Pilate answered. Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.” Matthew 27:64-65 Have a blessed day y'all! We have not experienced a time, season, or situation like this in our lifetimes. How about a daily dose of hope and inspired thought? Join me in looking at the things we face daily with passages from both the Big Book and Bible!
