"So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples." Matthew 28:8
FIERCE FEAR & JOY mingle as the angels deliver the message, HE IS NOT HERE! He is risen from the dead! JUST AS HE SAID WOULD HAPPEN. Come and see...
Today the call is still the same, Come and See. Jesus is no longer in that grave, He did exactly what He said He would do! He is now seated at the right hand of God Almighty interceding on my behalf, on your behalf. Jesus, the one who holds all things together by His powerful hand desires to hold the hands of those He came to rescue and deliver from the effects of sin and death.
Lesson Five: FIERCE FEAR comes when our minds can't comprehend what our eyes are beholding. FIERCE JOY follows when we believe by faith Jesus is exactly who He claims and He did exactly what He said, and He will continue to do what He has spoken. The day will come when the clouds will part and Jesus will step across the veil and all eyes will see Him. Jesus will return King of Kings and Lord of Lords to live forever with His Beloved. Now that will be unspeakable FIERCE JOY!!
