Day1
Mark16:5-8
“And as they stepped into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, dressed in a long white robe. The women were startled and amazed. But the angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid. I know that you’re here looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He isn’t here—he has risen victoriously! Look! See the place where they laid him. Run and tell his disciples, even Peter, that he is risen. He has gone ahead of you into Galilee and you will see him there, just like he told you.” They staggered out of the tomb, awestruck, with their minds swirling. They ran to tell the disciples, but they were so afraid and amazed, they said nothing to anyone.”
Mark 16:5-8 TPT
Not A Word
How could they be quiet about such wonderful news?
When you experience something wonderful, don’t you go and tell everyone about it? The best meal ever, the most beautiful sunset, your kid did the funniest thing, etc.
We usually have a hard time keeping our mouth shut.
Why did they say nothing?
I suspect that they were afraid. They didn’t see proof. They didn’t have the Bible to read so they didn’t know the answer. They didn’t know the man in white was an angel. He told them not to be afraid, but until now they only knew how to walk by sight, not by faith.
Are we still walking by sight after everything we have seen and experienced?
Do your circumstances look scary?
Faith says Jesus is alive!
Faith says Jesus is the Word made flesh.
Faith says Jesus is the answer, every answer to every question is found in Jesus, in The Word.
Build up your faith today through prayer, study and speaking faith.
Go and tell someone about what He has done for you!
