DAY SIX
Because of my death - He died. Because He’s alive - I live.
Daily Introduction:
Each day, begin by slowly declaring the truth below aloud. Let the words shape your heart before you move on. Sit with the statement and carry it as your declaration for the day. Then prayerfully read the Scripture passage. Read it more than once. Notice a word or phrase that stands out and linger there with the Lord. Finally, respond to Him through the reflection questions. Journal your honest responses. Invite the Holy Spirit to speak His heart and reveal where this truth meets your real life today.
Truth:
He took my hopelessness and gave me His resurrection hope. I am empowered.
Verse:
Ephesians 1:18-20
“I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope He has given to those He called—His holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe Him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated Him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms.”
Reflection:
Where in my life do I feel weary, discouraged, or powerless, and how does Jesus want to give me courage, hope, and power?
What does it mean that the same power that raised Jesus is now working for me and in me?
Since God floods my heart with light, what can I confidently understand about situations that feel hopeless?
