He Is Risen! This Easter Sunday, we gather to celebrate the greatest victory in history—the resurrection of Jesus Christ. His triumph over sin and death is the foundation of our faith and the source of our eternal hope.
In 2 Corinthians 5, the Apostle Paul reminds us of the life-transforming power of the resurrection. Because Christ died and rose again, we no longer live for ourselves but for Him (v. 15). Through His sacrifice, we are made new—“If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation” (v. 17). This is the miracle of Easter: God, in His mercy, has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ.
The empty tomb is more than proof of Christ’s power over death; it is an invitation to new life. Paul declares that we have been given the ministry of reconciliation (v. 18), called to share the good news that God no longer counts our sins against us because of Jesus. In a world filled with brokenness, this message of reconciliation and renewal is more needed than ever.
As we celebrate Christ’s resurrection today, let us reflect on what it means to be a “new creation.” What areas of our lives need His renewing power? How can we live as ambassadors of His grace, proclaiming the victory of the risen King?
This Easter, may we rejoice in the hope we have in Christ, embrace our identity as God’s redeemed people, and proclaim with confidence: He is risen indeed!
