Found - Luke 24 | CLCFTL

Found. Two disciples walked away from Jerusalem on the road to Emmaus, discouraged and defeated. They had hoped Jesus was the Messiah, but He was crucified. Their hope was dead. And then Jesus showed up. Luke 24:15 says, "While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them." They didn't find Him—He found them. If you've been walking away from hope, faith, or God Himself, this Easter message will show you that the risen Jesus finds you when you're lost.They didn't recognize Him at first. Jesus walked with them, listened to their pain, and explained the Scriptures. Then at dinner, He broke bread, and their eyes were opened. Luke 24:32 says, "They said to each other, 'Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the Scriptures?'" The resurrection wasn't just a historical event—it was a personal encounter. And immediately, they turned around and ran back to Jerusalem with the news: Jesus is alive. And He's looking for you.📖 Main Scripture: Luke 24:13-35Supporting: Luke 24:1-12, John 20:19-29, Acts 1:3, 1 Corinthians 15:3-8, Romans 10:9💡 Key Takeaways:→ You don't find Jesus—He finds you when you're walking away (Luke 24:15)→ Jesus listens to your pain before He reveals Himself (Luke 24:17-19)→ The risen Jesus opens the Scriptures and makes your heart burn (Luke 24:32)→ Encountering the resurrection turns you around immediately (Luke 24:33)📌 This is our Easter 2026 message revealing that the risen Jesus pursues us, finds us, and transforms us.If you've been walking away from God—disappointed, discouraged, or defeated—this message is for you.
