What a mighty God we serve! Two thousand years ago, He conquered death, hell, and the grave; and won the victory over our enemy. As we see the green leaves begin to form on the trees and hear the birds singing outside our windows, our hearts should jump for joy knowing that the Mighty Conqueror will soon call us away from the cares of this world.
We pray that the Lord gives each of you an Easter that is rich in the blessings of our Lord Jesus Christ.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
I Thessalonians 4:14-17
