Risen With Christ

Do you know that you have been raised up with Jesus Christ?

Colossians 3:1 says, “Since you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.”

You have risen with Christ. The debt is paid, and your sins are forgiven. And now God exalts you to a very high place of honor—risen with Christ. Christ’s victory over sin and death is your victory over sin and death. When Christ arose from the tomb and conquered death, you conquered death with him.

The enemy was defeated and is defeated. Assume the role of a victor because of who you are in Christ. You are valuable to God!

Romans 8:32 says, “He that spared not his own son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?”

How do you measure value? Is it by how much money you have? By the number of followers you have on social media. All of those things perish.

You are so valuable to God; He has sent His only Son to die and redeem you so you can spend eternity with Him.

God loves you so much that He sent Jesus to be made sin with your sinfulness, grieved with your grief, sick with your sickness, and tormented with the punishment you deserved.

Rejoice! You are risen with Christ!
