Every Believer Would Be Resurected

1 Corinthians 15:22-23 (NET)
For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.
But each in his own order: Christ, the firstfruits; then when Christ comes, those who belong to him.

Because Gloria understood the teaching about the resurrection, she didn’t mourn like the rest when her grandmother slept in the Lord. She knew she was going to see her grandma again, and this time they would see to part no more.

Jesus died and his disciples mourned Him and were depressed, but when he resurrected, their joy became full again. They saw Him, touched Him and ate with Him. The difference this time was that they knew that the new body he now had could never die again.

So it would be for every believer who dies in the Lord. They will resurrect with glorified bodies and be reunited with their loved ones who would also resurrect with glorified bodies that can never die, so long as their loved ones are also believers in Christ.

Go into today remembering that just as Christ was resurrected, you too would be resurrected into glory and honor. You would resurrect into everlasting life in the glorified body.

Prayer: give the Lord thanks for giving you the privilege of the resurrection. Pray for your loved ones who are not yet in Christ; that the Lord would have mercy on them and cause them to be saved so that you would spend the rest of eternity with them as resurrected human beings.
