The Triumph of Easter
Q. How did Thomas respond to Jesus after the resurrection?
A. Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” (John 20:28)
What are some things that might help you on a treasure hunt? You certainly would need a map or clues along the way, wouldn’t you? Our devotionals have been leading us on a treasure hunt. Our Bible readings for today were past clues that help us know that we have found our greatest treasure in Jesus. In fact, his resurrection from the dead explains all the clues we have been picking up. His resurrection is the temple rebuilt—the Old Testament time of rebuilding the temple was the clue. He is the returning person from exile—the Old Testament returning people were the clues. His resurrection is proof that he is the King of kings who will reign forever—King David is the clue. And his resurrection is the fulfillment of God’s promise to bless all the families of the earth—the promise to Abraham was the clue. In Jesus’s resurrection we find God’s greatest treasure!
Reflection and Interaction:
How does the resurrection help you to praise God?
Praise God for his surprising, necessary, and triumphant plan for salvation in song and in prayer.
