Lenten Devotional - Happy Easter
Happy Easter!
Luke 24:6-7, He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Remember what he told you back in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and that he would rise again on the third day.
Matthew 28:5-6, Then the angel spoke to the women. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying.
Now, sing with joy and passion as we praise our risen Savior today!
