From God’s Word
Jesus lives and all of His redeemed ones have hope! Peter explains this in 1 Peter 1:3. In our culture, “hope” means a possibility that we would really enjoy. In this passage the word “hope” is something that is certain, something that we can absolutely count on. God’s people have salvation and with that salvation future promises and blessings that we can count on at all times for all eternity. The “hope” mentioned in this passage is also described as a “living hope” made possible because Jesus rose from the dead. What this means is that we have a hope that powerfully impacts our lives in the service of the Lord. It results in fruitful living instead of wasted living. How sad it would be to try to navigate this life without the “living hope” that comes from the Risen Savior. My prayer is that many will receive this “living hope” as we preach God’s Word this Easter Season.
