In celebration of the Easter marking the resurrection of our Saviour Lord Jesus Christ, Joyce Meyer took to social media to give a short powerfulo message of the Easter.
In her Easter message, Joyce meyer said:
When Jesus rose from the dead, grief departed, and His suffering—so wrenching and complete—became a thing of the past.
At the moment of Christ’s resurrection, His focus, and ours, turned to the future.
The miraculous lesson of Easter is this: Through Jesus’ death on the cross, we have been granted a second chance.
We have permission to leave our old lives behind and focus on the new day, with all its potential for joy and choices that honor God.
Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior? If not, Easter is the perfect time to ask Him into your heart and your life.
Stop reliving the past and beating yourself up over all the mistakes you’ve made. The slate has been wiped clean!
Make a decision to paint a new life for yourself, bright with the colors of redemption, grace and renewal.
Jesus loves you. Happy Easter!

Now, we don’t just go from Friday to Sunday. We have to learn to endure Saturday, which I think is sometimes the hardest to do. We’ll call it the middle. In everything, there’s a beginning, an end, and a middle. The beginning is sometimes a little bit exciting because it’s a new thing. And the end is certainly exciting because it’s where we experience the victory. But, oh…that middle! The Saturdays may be even harder than the Fridays because on Saturday, we’re in the grave and we’re not sure what’s going to happen next.
Most of the time, we don’t know how long the middle’s going to last, and although God knows…He’s not telling. (Isn’t He great at keeping secrets?) So we need to remember that when we’re going through the middle of something, we can be assured Sunday always comes after Friday. But we have to endure Saturday—we have to outlast the devil, remain steadfast and not give up or quit. When we do, we will enjoy the resurrection benefits and blessings that come on Sunday.
