The Day Death Died

The Day Death Died.
I am sure the religious enemies of Jesus and even the Devil himself were quite satisfied with their work on Good Friday.  The had done it.  They killed Jesus, finally silencing him and his ragtag group of followers.  Saturday for sure was a celebration in the enemies camp.  They had called the bluff, if Jesus was really God then where is he?  He is in the grave, proving His claims to be absurd.  The disciples are even filled with doubt, grief and disillusionment.  What has happened?  They saw Jesus do incredible things, they were so sure of Him, they never experienced a love like His, but now, he lies lifeless in a stone tomb.  The irony of the third day is nothing short of divine ingenious.  What the enemy intended for evil, God used brilliantly for all of our good.  While the religious leaders and the Devil sought to put Jesus to Death, they actually assisted in putting death to death.  They were out to kill and destroy, but Jesus’s death and resurrection actually brought forth life.  Eternal life.  A beautiful real life drama straight from the heart of the Father, who scripted the entire thing, so that he may give man another way back to Him, forever.  The scriptures sing out the victory…  – Pastor Shawn

1 Cor. 15:54-55

54 Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled:

“Death is swallowed up in victory.

55 O death, where is your victory?

    O death, where is your sting?”
