Description
JERUSALEM, ISRAEL :: This is a close-up of what many believe is the chamber where Messiah Yeshua Jesus was buried and gloriously resurrected. The actual place is secondary to the fact that His powerful resurrection that First Easter Morning has been recorded in no less than four places in the Bible:: Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, and John 20.
When I made my pilgrimage to the Holy Land, one of the highlights of my life was stepping into this very chamber and experiencing first hand the incredible love and power of the Risen Lord Himself. As I stood right next to the floor of His empty grave, I was healed physically and emotionally though His powerful love that I can only describe as an atomic explosion. It was truly an experience I will never forget.
Walking in the literal footsteps of my Master, Savior and Messiah in the Land of the Bible is an incredible encounter which makes the Scriptures come to life. Things I read about in the Bible literally come alive in living color.
Visiting Israel served to strengthen my faith and brought me even closer to the One Who gave His all so that I could live with the peaceful assurance of having my eternal destiny secure.
If you would like to experience that same incredible love that cannot adequately be described in earthly terms, I invite you to say out loud from your heart these life-changing words which I also have said many years ago::
"FATHER GOD, PLEASE FORGIVE ME OF MY SINS.
YESHUA JESUS, I INVITE YOU TO COME INTO MY HEART.
MAKE ME THE KIND OF PERSON YOU WANT ME TO BE.
THANK YOU FOR SAVING ME TODAY."
If this is the first time you said these words and meant it from your heart, I want to personally congratulate you and welcome you to the Family of God! I encourage you to read The Bible, God's Love Letter to you, daily as spiritual nourishment (start with the Book of John), pray to God daily like talking to your best friend, find a good Bible-teaching church, and share with others the Good News of your most important decision in life to follow Christ. Place your trust in Yeshua Jesus.... He will NEVER let you down! And please let me know via e-mail about this most important decision you have made, so that I may celebrate with you!
God bless you, have a super day, and a terrific forever!
"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." Matthew 28:5-6, KJV
