“SHARE AND SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS”





Happy Easter! The Feast of Easter gives millions of people who live in bondage a hope to live and look to the future. The people who are held captive by addictions, whose lives are bent and twisted by events and circumstances can long for freedom from risen Lord Jesus. So we the resurrected people who have gained freedom need to go out and share the good news with those who are struggling to gain freedom. We have found truth in the life of our Lord Jesus that has changed our lives, share it with others. Let us go forward to carry to others the glorious message of the resurrection which gives us the possibility of a spiritual awakening. The spiritual awakening involves an understanding of life that begins with the realization that we live our lives as an expression of God’s will.
Let us strive for the recognition that we are powerless and God is all-powerful. Our lives will have meaning, purpose and significance if we allow Him to control our lives. The power of God can revolutionize and revitalize our drooping human spirit. The spiritual awakening that the resurrection of Jesus can cause will make us to realize and revaluate our lives in our community. The spiritual awakening will help us to understand that things will be different if we let in the power of God.

Sharing and spreading the good news will strengthen your foundation as committed person while encouraging others to experience the same spiritual awakening. There are millions of people who are longing and desiring to have spiritual awakening, so go out to share the good news with them which will help to rescue them from lives of confusion and desperation. Help these unfortunates to build their lives on a spiritual foundation who are trying to build up lives without any real foundation.

It is common experience of committed people that a life that is built on a spiritual foundation is lived with the attitude of surrender and simplicity. A life is lived with the attitude that wherever we go, whatever we are doing, ‘God is blessing us now.’ It is true that God blesses those who are spiritually awakened. So hasten to be spiritually awakened by the power of resurrection and be blessed by the all powerful God.

The brother who has had a spiritual awakening will know that the hand of God is in whatever is going in his life. And he has the assurance and hope that God wants only the best for him. At the moment many pleasant and unpleasant things may be going on in our lives, but we have to believe and understand that God is loving and blessing us. But don’t get me wrong that God caused all those unpleasant and negative things to happen in our lives. If we will look for His guiding and consoling hand in our affairs and matters we will see His blessings in our life. The power of resurrection can turn even the most trying situations to our advantage as it happened in the lives of scared and frightened apostles and disciples.

Let us allow God to take control of our lives and thus get into the spiritual awakening which will redirect our aims and goals toward things that are of real and lasting value. Let us not be held captive by our basic instincts and needs but free to be other-centered and God-centered people through the power of resurrection. Gradually move towards this spiritual awakening which helps us to look at our lives and see that we have a different attitude than we used to have. The spirit of resurrection helps us to think about things in a different and positive way. Many walls that encamped and surrounded us will begin to crumble to allow us reach out in love to those around us.

Let us not look at difficult past which has become part of God’s blessing, because all that has happened to us in the past has brought us to where we are today. The difficult past that was totally without direction and foundation has brought us to God. This is good news! This is the power of resurrection! This is spiritual awakening! Go out to share and spread! All our darkness, turmoil and disappointments in our relationships with others have made us the persons we are and brought us to the place where we are today. We have a mandate to talk to others who are where we were.
