Scripture
John 5:21-26
For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it. Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him. “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life. Very truly I tell you, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.

The mighty oak was once a little nut that stood its ground. ~unknown
Application
Take a moment and give a big shout out, “THANK YOU GOD!” Go ahead, I will give you a second. Oh, wait, you are wondering why? Well, because you my friend have been raised from the dead. No, I am not talking zombies or anything. Your soul was dead. You were headed straight to hell, no chance at living. Jesus came to raise us up with him. He died so we no longer had to die. Remember, Satan can try to burry you, much like a squirrel buries nuts. Also, remember mighty trees come to life from those buried nuts!
Prayer
Lord, thank you for seeing in me what I never could. Thank you for loving me enough to raise me from the dead! ~Amen
