Bible Readings: Ephesians 1:18-20; Philippians 4:13

¹⁸ I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.^[a]

¹⁹ I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power ²⁰ that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms.

¹³ For I can do everything through Christ,^[a] who gives me strength.

Introduction: A Resurrection Shaped Life

Do you wish sometimes you could put some of the stuff that goes on in your life to death? I wish I could throttle my impatience sometimes. I could do with putting my sarcasm to death, too!

Paul reminds us that we can have the power to put these things to death and to life a resurrection shaped life.

The Power of Resurrection

Resurrection is not just about life after death; it’s about life after life after death. It’s about the power that brings us into a new existence, one where we experience the fullness of God’s promises.

As we journey beyond the grave, we’re empowered to face our own spiritual deaths—the death of sin, the death of old habits, the death of everything that separates us from God—and to embrace the resurrection life that Jesus offers.

Embracing Resurrection Life

Why not take a few moments today to reflect on the areas of your life where you need resurrection power. Maybe it’s a sin you’re struggling with, a relationship that needs healing, or a situation that seems dead.

Ask God to bring resurrection life into these areas today. The power that raised Jesus from the dead is available to you to live a resurrection shaped life too.

Reflection Question

In what ways do you need to experience the resurrection power of Jesus in your life right now?
