An insight survey;

[Apostle GOC. Ogaraku]

An insight survey; a Reflection into the deep meaning of resurrection of Jesus Christ unto the believers.

Brethren, loved and beloved,

Calvary greetings to you, to your family and the Church in Christ Jesus.
May the power of Christ’s resurrection overshadow you all in Jesus name. Amen.

Easter is not only the most single important celebration of the people of God and those saved through Christ Jesus, it is the most important celebration the world over. The death and resurrection of Christ is what set mankind free from eternal condemnation and into the eternal salvation.
Have you really reflected on this; that a man because of love of his community freely and voluntarily gave up his son to die as ransom?
Have you ever read that a son intentionally and willingly gave up his life for the love of the people of the community, the world?
Broaden it into the whole world and see the underlying substance and importance of this gesture.
Can you do that?
To give up you only son
To die for your enemies
Romans 5:7-8 (RSV) 7For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die…..8 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
In few days Easter shall be celebrated. I think it is time of a thought provocating reflection. It is also my desire to share with you the love and satisfaction that goes with it, the things keeping my mind busy.
What I going to share with you shall blow your mind and sweeten your heart with awe inspiring and reverence submission to God. Ephesians 1:19-23 (New International Version) 19 “and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, 20 which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church; 23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way”.
What a great power that rolled away the stones with a finger of God. What an incomparably power given to us who believe. We have this power which is like the working of his mighty strength in us. And we are given the right to be called children of God John 1:12. Therefore I say in this Easter be strong in the lord because mighty power works in you. Ephesians 6:10 finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Colossians 1:29 for this purpose also I labor, striving according to His power, which mightily works within me.
Please read also the power of God working in us.
The spirit of the lord (Holy Spirit) that raised Jesus from dead lives in us, in you and in me. This is whoa, this is awesome and this is great. Please shout Hallelujah. Romans 8:11 “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you; He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you”. Can you feel it? Can you feel the power, can you feel the spirit of God working in you.
Ephesian 3:7 of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of God's grace which was given to me according to the working of His power.
Ephesians 3:20 Apostle Paul said: “Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us Remember, He shares your joys as well your sorrows and he died for you that you may live. Think of these.
Your humble brother
