LADIES FIRST
Matthew 28:5-10 (KJV) And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for HE IS RISEN, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And GO QUICKLY, and tell his disciples that HE IS RISEN from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word. And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, all hail. And they came and held him by the feet and worshipped him. Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: GO TELL MY BRETHREN that they go into Galilee, and THERE SHALL THEY SEE ME.
GLORY TO GOD!!!
Yet, even after witnessing all that Jesus had said and done, and having heard Him prophesy about His resurrection, the brethren still did not believe the message Jesus sent forth by the women (Even then, a sister couldn't seem to catch a break).
Luke 24:11 (KJV) And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
Nevertheless, especially to this generation of women entering into ministry, I say: Even if absolutely no one else believes nor receives you; when God says go, you GO girl; and whatever He commands you to do; do it. For as it is written:
John 14:21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.
Thank You LORD
After first appearing to the women, Jesus appeared to the brethren, that the ministry not be hindered because of doubt . . .
Mark 16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the Word with signs following. Amen.
HALLELUJAH!!!
Recommended Reading & Final Thought: 1 Corinthians 2 (My favorite passage). Indeed I began this assignment (this ministry) with the following question, in demonstration of the Holy Spirit, for which I received much rebuke. But, again I ask, not in the wisdom of man, but in the wisdom of the Spirit of God . . .
HAVE YOU SEEN HIM?
HAPPY EASTER
