Come. See. Go. Tell.

Matthew 28:1-8 Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. 2 And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from Heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it. 3 His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. 4 And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like dead men. 5 But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. 6 He is not here; for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. 7 And go quickly and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead, and indeed he is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him. Behold, I have told you.” 8 So they went out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring his disciples word.
 
ON resurrection morning the Lord’s angel at the tomb commanded the women to do four things: “Come.” they invited. “See.” they encouraged. “Go.” they instructed. “Tell.” they insisted.
    Then note the women’s faithful response: So they went out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring his disciples word. They obeyed the angels with fear and great joy – with reverent worship and great wonder in their hearts, these first evangelists told the good news!
    Our Christ-centered life is about these four faith responses to the empty tomb, isn’t it? In the LORD’s choosing, Jesus invites all who are weary to “Come to me.” (Matthew 11:28) He urges us to see the Father care for you who are more valuable than the lilies of the field (Matthew 6:28). “Go,” he says, “and make disciples of the nations.” (Matthew 28:19). Tell the world he is risen.
    God’s plan is orderly and complete when you take four faithful steps.
 
Let’s Pray: Come, Holy Spirit. Help me come into the Father’s presence each day, so I will see the risen Lord’s power in my life. May I go in reverent joy each day to live and to tell of his salvation.
 
“He is risen!” Let’s go to the garden to see the empty tomb and celebrate Jesus is alive – (and so are you)
