Day 1 UNLEASHED FOR MISSION! Know Jesus as Our Living Savior
John 17:3
“And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.”
OUR SAVIOR DIED FOR OUR SINS ON THE CROSS HOWEVER HE DID NOT REMAIN IN THE GRAVE HE ROSE AGAIN! THIS IMPELS US FOR MISSION EVEN IN LIFE THREATENING SITUATIONS
Revelation 1:17-18
“And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.”
Low in the grave He lay
Jesus my Savior!
Waiting the coming day
Jesus my Lord!
Up from the grave He arose
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes
He arose a Victor from the dark domain
And He lives forever with His saints to reign
He arose! (He arose)
He arose! (He arose)
Hallelujah! Christ arose!
Vainly they watch His bed
Jesus, my Savior!
Vainly they seal the dead
Jesus my Lord!
Death cannot keep his prey
Jesus, my Savior!
He tore the bars away
Jesus my Lord!
Acts 1:1-3
“The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, until the day in which He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.”
CHRIST’S RESURRECTION WAS IN FULFILLMENT OF SCRIPTURE
Luke 24:17-20
“And He said to them, “What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?” Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, “Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?” And He said to them, “What things?” So they said to Him, “The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a Prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to be condemned to death, and crucified Him.”
Luke 24:25-27
“Then He said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into His glory?” And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.”
Luke 24:32
“And they said to one another, “Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?””
KNOWING THE LIVING SAVIOR UNLEASHES ONE FOR MISSION YOU CAN NOT BE SILENT AFTER PERSONALLY MEETING HIM
Luke 24:33-35
“So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together, saying, “The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!” And they told about the things that had happened on the road, and how He was known to them in the breaking of bread.”
“Let’s pray that God would open our eyes to know Jesus is alive and present in our lives by the power of the Holy Spirit.“
