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! (Romans 8:11 - The Message) JESUS IS ALIVE...CELEBRATE TODAY! Celebrate the fact that the real, living Jesus... ..the outspoken, passionate, confrontational, provocative, liberating, counter-culture, strong and brave and totally secure-within-Himself, fully integrated Jesus... ..the Word made flesh who became Jesus, the Christ...Jesus in the now... ..the One who embodies the "I Am," the God who defies definition and description... ..the manna or the "what is it?" that came down from heaven... ..the One whose humanity is every bit as beautiful and intriguing and wonderful as is His divinity... ..the God-man who cannot be bound or limited in any way by religion or philosophy or doctrines or dogma... ..the firstborn among many siblings in the family of God who live in the 21st century is alive!! JESUS IS ALIVE...CELEBRATE TODAY! Sponsor Ad Celebrate that, because He lives, you can be fully alive in your life! Allow your natural senses to be quickened by God so as to heighten your awareness of His beautiful creation surrounding you! Hear, by the Spirit, the trees of the field clapping their hands in adoration to the Most High, and declare with the Psalmist, "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord"! (Psalm 150:6). Don't be afraid when you walk through the valley of the shadow of death. Know that He is with you, and that His rod (to protect) and His staff (to guide) will aid and equip you to walk out of that valley, to successfully climb the mountain of the Lord! Celebrate that He is alive in the earth! JESUS IS ALIVE...CELEBRATE TODAY! Listen for the word of the Lord to you, specifically. You cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds (present tense) out of the mouth of God, so make every effort to find your rhema word in the now. His words will create an eternally living fountain within you, producing an effect that will be obvious to all who come into contact with you, including the ones who have no spiritual sensitivity. Even the heathen will sense that there is something different and life-giving about you! The living word in and to you will re-create you to be a living epistle written on their human hearts, and you will become a manifested confirmation to them that the Word works! Because He lives, the spirit of death is rebuked, so allow the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus to continually make you free from the law of sin and death! Celebrate resurrection today, and celebrate that He is alive in you! Bishop Jim Swilley O.
