He Is Not Here

In this Resurrection Sunday devotional, we celebrate the moment that changes everything: the tomb is empty and Jesus is alive. When the angel declares, “He is not here; He has risen,” it becomes a victory announcement over sin, death, and despair—and a promise that our pain and past don’t get the final word. This episode highlights both the power and tenderness of the resurrection, including Jesus calling Mary by name, reminding us that the risen Christ is personal and present. Easter’s message isn’t “try harder,” but “come alive,” as Jesus invites us into new beginnings, freedom, and hope.
