Luke 24:1-12
Jesus Is Alive
(Matthew 28.1-10; Mark 16.1-8; John 20.1-10)
24 Very early on Sunday morning the women went to the tomb, carrying the spices they had prepared. 2 When they found the stone rolled away from the entrance, 3 they went in. But they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus, 4 and they did not know what to think.
Suddenly two men in shining white clothes stood beside them. 5 The women were afraid and bowed to the ground.
But the men said, “Why are you looking in the place of the dead for someone who is alive? 6 Jesus isn't here! He has been raised from death. Remember that while he was still in Galilee, he told you, 7 ‘The Son of Man will be handed over to sinners who will nail him to a cross. But three days later he will rise to life.’ ”
8 Then they remembered what Jesus had said.
9-10 Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and some other women were the ones who had gone to the tomb. When they returned, they told the eleven apostles and the others what had happened.
11 The apostles thought it was all nonsense, and they would not believe.
12 But Peter ran to the tomb. And when he stooped down and looked in, he saw only the burial clothes. Then he returned, wondering what had happened.
Abba, Father,
Blessed are You, Lord Father our God,
Blessed is Your Son, Jesus.
We ask You to put Your Name,
"Jesus"
upon us
and say, "I will Bless them."
The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you
and give you peace.
Let Your Heavenly Kingdom come,
Let Your Will be done,
on earth
as in Heaven.
Thank You for Your Son's Life,
He has given us immeasurably more
than all we ask or imagine,
according to His power that is at work within us,
To our Father and Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit,
be the glory in the church and
in Christ Jesus throughout all generations,
forever and ever. Amen
