Ask Doc: How does Christ’s resurrection empower me to live victoriously? - Martha

The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of the Apostles’ Creed and our faith. It declares that death does not have the final word; Christ’s triumph over the grave gives believers assurance of eternal life. This power is not only future hope but present reality, enabling us to live in newness of life, free from the bondage of sin. By His resurrection, Jesus imparts divine strength, encouraging us to walk faithfully amid trials, knowing that our lives are hidden with Christ in God. This is a living hope that fills us with courage and perseverance.

PRACTICAL APPLICATION
- Begin each day meditating on Romans 6:4 to remind yourself of the new life in Christ.
- When temptation comes, declare the power of Christ’s resurrection over sin.
- Engage regularly in prayer and Scripture reading to deepen your experience of resurrection power.
- Serve others with the confidence that Christ’s life flows through you.
- Share the hope of the resurrection with someone struggling to believe.
