SCRIPTURE: Mark 16:6 “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.
7 But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.’” (NIV)
OBSERVATION: The ladies came looking for a dead body in a sealed tomb. They found an open tomb with a living messenger telling them that Jesus was alive! They came prepared to anoint a dead body, but they were sent away with a message! They were sent to remind Peter that Jesus would do just as Jesus had told Peter. (Mark 14:28)
APPLICATION: How important it is for me to remember what Jesus has told me. Sometimes I need Jesus to send people my way to remind me of what He has said to me.
But He already knew I would need help remembering S0… He sent the Holy Spirit who lives inside me—He is always that close. AND He speaks to me. He helps me remember the words of Jesus. (John 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14 He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you.)
PRAYER: Lord, you know how quickly I can forget what you have said to me. Thank you for the scriptures; thank you for the Holy Spirit; and thank you for people you use to remind me of what You have said! Amen
