The Power of Resurrection

The Power of Resurrection

Hello Sisters and my brothers,

I am in the process of learning that I must have faith in God, believe in his word and do not live in fear. Fear consumes us and over time fear will destroy us if we allow it. I have been in a place in my life for the past 2 years that is new to me, and I have felt like I am walking alone and there is no one that understands the way I truly feel. I feel like I do not want to burden anyone with my feelings, not even God, and I have carried that burden with me for 2 years fully knowing that God said, “(Ps 55:22) “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain you: he
shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.” (Matt 11:28) “Come unto me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” (Matt 11:29-30) “Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (All NKJVerses).

Today is resurrection day and I have learned that today not only was Christ resurrected but when I gave my all to Christ, when I became a new woman in Christ, God said give all your burdens to me and I will give you rest, you are a new woman in Christ, now you must walk it, declare it, and bask in it. I was sitting at home after church service today and these scriptures came to me…

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the daylong;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
—Romans 8:31-39 ;)


God is showing me that none of us are perfect and that we each have a story, a testimony to share with one another. The goal we each miss is that we are striving for perfection; we strive to be Christ-like, to remain and walk a Christ like path. We must remember that we never walk alone and that God is always with us, Jesus left the comforter (the Holy Spirit) here with us to guide us. (John 16:7-16). Sometimes it is easy to be discouraged when walking a Christ filled life because others who do not know God do not understand us. Sometimes circumstances get in the way of what God is showing us but I had to learn the scripture Psalm 46:10, “Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” :)

This scripture has taught me that I need to stop letting things and people bother me and …Ask, Believe, and Receive ( Mark 11:24) God is letting me know that HE is God, not my circumstances, not my situation, and not my burdens. HE is GOD not the bills, not the car repairs, not my husband, not my stepchild, not my family, and not my finances. HE is GOD!

Sometimes that is not the easiest thing to do for me, easier said than done, it is not easy when your bills are due, when you spouse or children are beside themselves, or things are not going well in school, on your job, or it may seem like your life is handing you lemons. I used to read a quote that read, “When life gives you lemons...make lemonade!” There are times when that lemonade is still sour and we wonder why things are not going well. That is the time we need to stop what we are doing and listen to the voice of God. We need to ASK…Believe…and Receive (Mark 11:24- “Therefore I say unto you, what things so ever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them”, KJV )

We must remember there is No fear in God’s love…his love is perfect and we can rest in him knowing that we are safe within his arms. (1 John 4:18- “There is no fear in love; but perfect love castes out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feared is not made perfect in love”, KJV).
The past two months I have re-examined my heart and my mind and I have learned that I have been in a place in my life that is new to me. I have begun to walk in new territories that I have never experienced. A place of higher faith which brought more trials and tribulations and I thought that I could not maintain and that I was weakened by these spiritual attacks.

This new place brought fear into my heart, fear into my soul, and fear into my being. It tried to consume me and it tried to tear me apart but I know it was the blood of Jesus who saved me; he preserved me, he picked me up, turned my life around, and planted me feet on higher ground. There is nothing that I cannot conqueror because I know that God is for me, he is my fortress, and he is my stronghold in times of trouble and peace. :)

In examining my heart, my soul, and my being…I thought there were times I would not make it but God’s still, peaceful and quiet voice said unto me… (2 CORINTHIANS 12:9 KJV “And he said unto me, my grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”)

If God is for me…WHO can be against me? :)

So I have laid my fears aside and I have decided to continue to embark upon God’s high calling. I must continue to climb higher in my faith and know that spiritual attacks await me because I AM a child of God, and those attacks cannot break me because I know that I can ask, believe, and receive God’s will and whatever God has planned for my life.

I am seated in first class…there is no need for me to pilot or co-pilot, God told me to be still and know that HE is God! That means I am to remains quiet, stop whining, complaining, and be still, move out of God's way and let his perfect work begin! :)

Today is resurrection day and it allowed me to learn that today was my resurrection day as well… my fears, worries, pain, and burdens have all been cast down, rebuked, buried, and never to be regained, because I have Heaven to gain! :)

In closing,
Remember to examine yourself and ask God if you are following his path.

If not… ASK…BELIEVE… and RECEIVE his will and his direction for your life. (Mark 11:24). :)

I hope my testimony will inspire you all to cast your burdens on God, allow him to carry you through the valley of death, and allow his perfect works to continue in your life.

Know that you all are blessed and highly favored my sisters and brothers!

You all are in my prayers daily!
Love you !
