During my communion time with the Holy Spirit He emphasized with clarity and no uncertain terms that Jesus Christ is our Resurrection and our Life, and that our complete trust and reliance upon Him as the resurrection and the life is essential for us being raised out of every death-dealing venture, obstruction, or opposition that attempts to exalt itself above the knowledge of God.
The Holy Spirit reminded me that in the Presence of the Lord there is always a release of life. Romans.4:17 which tells us that God is the One who gives life to the dead and calls things that do not exist as though they are. We therefore as followers of Jesus are called to live daily in this resurrection life reality, by trusting that the Holy Spirit will raise us out of every dead place by imparting fresh life into every circumstance that shows up in our lives.
The Holy Spirit specifically reminded me that the Jesus I follow is not merely the One who died for our sins, but the One who was raised from the dead and now lives in glory with all authority and power at His disposal. We must realize that If Jesus had only died for us, then we would remain dead with Him. However what secures our life in Him is that He rose from the dead by defeating death, and now lives eternally, reigning in all power and dominion. Thank the Lord that Jesus is no longer in a tomb but raised into the place of ultimate glory above every other name.
This truth was declared by the angels at the empty tomb of Jesus, who asked the disciples this question in Luke.24:5: “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” Jesus is alive and possesses the authority to raise any human being that is dead back to life. This foundational truth must never be forgotten because it is our life because the Lord always gives life to the dead and calls nonexistent things into existence.
In Hebrews 2:15 this reality is presented to us as the anchor of our faith, which declares that Jesus destroyed the one who had the power of death that is the devil and then released humanity from our lifelong bondage caused by the fear of death. Through Jesus we know that death no longer reigns over us and as His followers we now live under the authority of resurrection life.
In John 11:25–26, Jesus makes His unparalleled declaration: “I am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die.” This statement distinguishes Jesus from all others. Many may surrender their lives to be killed and then die, but only Jesus has the inherent power to raise Himself and others from death. The central question remains for us all as Jesus asked Martha: “Do you believe this?”
Jesus’ supremacy is further affirmed and proclaimed in Acts 2:24, which states that God raised Him up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was impossible for death to hold Him. This truth forms the bedrock of our Christian faith because death man’s greatest enemy could not restrain Jesus, and therefore cannot ultimately restrain those who are in Him. What Adam surrendered to death, Jesus reclaimed through His resurrection.
The outworking of this truth is seen in action in Acts 4:33–35, where the apostles bore witness not merely to the cross, but to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. As they did this, great power was released and great grace rested upon all. This resurrection testimony transformed lives, liberated people from lack, reshaped their wrong relationship with material possessions, and redirected their resources toward the advancement of the Kingdom. Death was defeated, and life overflowed fully into every area of community living.
The Holy Spirit made it clear that the same Lord of the Resurrection Jesus Himself desires to raise us His followers today out of every dead situation around us whether it is spiritual, emotional, relational, financial, or physical. Just as in the early church, the living proof that Jesus is alive is still demonstrated through miracles, signs, wonders, and transformed lives.
My appeal to you today is that as a follower and lover of Jesus lay hold with all within you of the words of Jesus as the resurrection and the life and receive all the abundant grace of resurrection power imparted through these words. Then boldly rise out of every grave situation into experiencing in real terms a resurrection out of every death situation that has exalted itself above the knowledge of God.
Remember that this resurrection power is not limited to physical death of the body alone because it extends to reach out even to the driest of bones in impossible situations, by calling forth life to them and raising them up into a mighty army to serve God’s purposes on the earth, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Ezekiel.37:1-14.
The final call is for you to step forward out of the grave of negativity and into a new season of life, where you are living fully in the resurrection power of the Lord, filled with miraculous things happening that tangibly prove who Jesus is in every area of your life.
In the mighty Name of Jesus Christ, I declare that Jesus is your Resurrection and your life. Therefore every death-dealing situation confronting you now is broken by the power of His resurrection. I declare that no grave, no obstacle, no threat of death can hold you down, because it is impossible for death to prevail where Jesus reigns.
I decree that the Holy Spirit raises you out of every dead place, first spiritually, emotionally, physically, and circumstantially. Whatever was dry in your situation receives life and what had been buried rises as what was impossible to happen is restored.
I declare that the fear of death has no authority over you and the power of the enemy is destroyed concerning you as resurrection life now governs your path, your future, and your Godly inheritance.
I decree that you come forth out of the grave into a new season of life, filled with victory, purpose, triumph and much abundance. From now you will walk in resurrection power, by bearing visible proof that Jesus is alive and reigning in your life.
Now arise out of nothingness and live in the power of Jesus’ resurrection power, as you let your life testify to His glory, in Jesus’ mighty Name. Amen.
