Jesus conquered even death—the weapon formed to overthrow you
God sent his own representatives with the breaking news that Jesus had risen from the dead, just as he said. The angels asked, “Why seek ye the living among the dead?” Luke 24:5. The huge boulder that once blocked the tomb’s entrance was rolled away. The grave clothes that bound him were left there. Death lost its power to hold Jesus. Oh death, where is your sting? Oh grave, where is your victory? “God will bring down their strongest walls, their impenetrable defenses, and grind them to the ground until they are only dust,” Psalm 25: 12, The Voice. God took something that appears so final to man and supernaturally changed its disposition to live and never die again. God proved he always has the final word. Corruption put on incorruption. Mortal put on immorality. The power of Holy Spirit replaces everything subject to death with eternal life; the same power that resurrected Jesus resurrects anything dead, dying, decayed, or destroyed in your life. Romans 8:9-11, The Message seals this image of God’s most honorable intention toward you. “But if God himself has taken up residence in your life, you can hardly be thinking more of yourself than of him. Anyone, of course, who has not welcomed this invisible but clearly present God, the Spirit of Christ, won’t know what we’re talking about. But for you who welcome him, in whom he dwells—even though you still experience all the limitations of sin—you yourself experience life on God’s terms. It stands to reason, doesn’t it, that if the alive-and-present God who raised Jesus from the dead moves into your life, he’ll do the same thing in you that he did in Jesus, bringing you alive to himself? When God lives and breathes in you (and he does, as surely as he did in Jesus), you are delivered from that dead life. With his Spirit living in you, your body will be as alive as Christ’s!” Jesus took the death out of life on earth. Resurrection!
