Indestructible Life!

Pastor Leon’s SOAP: Scripture, Observation, Application, Prayer

October 13: Nehemiah 9-10; Acts 2

Scripture: Acts 2:22 "Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.
23 This man was handed over to you by God’s set purpose and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross.
24 But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.

Observation: Jesus was the theme of Peter’s message. The worst that wicked men could do to Jesus (putting him to death) became the basis for the greatest demonstration of his indestructible life (his resurrection). “It was impossible for death to keep its hold on him!”

Application: With Christ living in me, I need never fear what man can do to me! The worst that man can do to me simply becomes the basis for a great demonstration of that Indestructible Life living in me!

Prayer: Lord, please help me to remember. The life you live in me has already been proven to be greater than death. Amen.
