Jeremiah 29:12-13
Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Make the call. Sometimes you have to get to the lowest point before you’re willing to call on God. And Israel was no different. They were at their lowest point when God gave them these words of encouragement. But you don’t have to wait until you’re at your lowest point to call on God, you can do it anytime!

Psalm 51:7
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

If you’ve ever gotten an oil stain on your favorite shirt, you know it’s impossible to completely get rid of the stain. Yet when it comes to stains, God’s not interested in the ones on our shirts, but the ones on our hearts. And in order to get those clean, He had to use the deepest, richest, purest cleaning agent: the blood of His Son.

Matthew 11:28-30
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

Make the switch! When Jesus was on earth, He gave people the opportunity to make the switch: their heavy burdens for His light burden. And thankfully, He still offers that opportunity to you today. The question you have to ask yourself is: am I willing to make the switch?

1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.

To do well in fishing, you first have to learn how to cast your line. They say, the deeper you cast, the bigger the fish. And it’s the same with life. To live it well, you have to learn to cast your worries, your fears, and your troubles on God. And the cool thing is, the deeper you cast them, the smaller they look.

Psalm 147:4
He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name.

When you have a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day–take a moment to remember this: God has given a name to each and every star in the heavens. And if He cares about them, you can be certain that He cares even more for you!

Hebrews 13:14
For this world is not our home; we are looking forward to our everlasting home in heaven.

Good news! God isn’t going to keep you on earth permanently. He’s not going to make you stay in a place that’s filled with wars, natural disasters, and where evil is rampant. Instead, He’s preparing a place for you that’s filled with beauty, joy, and peace. A place you’ll never want to leave.

Mark 16:6
But he said to them, Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.

The proof was in the empty tomb. The angel might’ve been proof enough, but after all the disciples experienced, they wanted their human eyes to see in order to believe. And what they found was exactly as the angelic being proclaimed, Jesus was not there. He had done the impossible, He’d risen from the dead!

Romans 6:9
We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.

It’s hard to believe at times that the power or the sting of death is no longer something you must fear. But Jesus, He endured that power, and He graciously took that sting. And then He crushed death underneath His resurrected feet so that it would never be able to have power again. And the amazing thing is, He only had to do it once!

Mark 16:3-4
And they said among themselves, Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us? But when they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away—for it was very large.

Don’t you just love the women who were walking to the tomb? They had no idea who would move the stone for them, but they were going there anyway. An impossible task was before them, fear was all around them, but their love for God drove them to face it with faith. And God provided! Take a lesson from these courageous women today and choose to face your impossible tasks with faith.

Luke 24:6-7
He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, saying, The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

Jesus gave many hints to His followers about the suffering He would face, but at the time, they didn’t quite understand. And it wasn’t until they found the tomb empty that they started to remember what He said to them. Everything that happened from Judas’s betrayal to the crucifixion to Jesus’ resurrection happened exactly the way He predicted. He truly was the Son of God!

Matthew 21:9
Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

Deliver us! That’s what the crowd was proclaiming the day Jesus came through Jerusalem riding on the foal of a donkey. And if they would’ve just searched the Scriptures a little more clearly, they would’ve seen that delivering them was exactly what He was preparing to do. However, He would do it not as a conquering King, but as a suffering Servant.
