Happy Easter!
Ephesians 1:18-20: "I pray that...you may know the hope to
which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance...and His
incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the
mighty strength which He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated
him at His right hand in the heavenly realms..."
Praise God! Jesus rose from the grave! He rose having paid
the price for sin, once for all! He went to the cross willingly, having offered
Himself up as God’s perfect sacrifice for our transgressions. The wages of sin
is death but the gift of God is eternal life! (1) Christ has given eternal life
to us who believe upon Him and received Him as savior. It is by grace you have been
saved through faith, it is gift of God, not by works, lest any man should
boast! (2) He came unto His own but His own did not receive Him, yet to as many
as did receive Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God. (3)
We are thankful every time we think of what grace and mercy
God has given us, that through faith in Christ we have redemption and eternal
life. We who have believed upon Christ and received Him as Savior have been
made children of God. His resurrection power also lives in us through the Holy
Spirit!
We were blessed to see that resurrection power moving so
gloriously as the Holy Spirit poured out over the meetings we just did in
Canada as we ministered in Victoria and Vancouver.
We did meetings at Salvation House and Miracle Café, as well
as home meetings, and the Spirit of God filled and empowered many people as
well as brining healing and deliverance. We saw that the Holy Spirit was
breaking chains over people’s lives and setting them free and healing them. The
Lord was also equipping people to “do the stuff” as John Wimber used to put it,
equipping people to minister the works of Christ!
We felt blessed to be ministering there once again and
rejoice that Christ’s resurrection power continues to move with such strength
and grace! Hallelujah!
