WORD 4 Today 6/24: And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man. 1 Corinthians 15:49 NKJV

Confess: We are BORN of the FLESH & we are REBORN in the SPIRIT!  We bear the IMAGE of ADAM, the first man, let’s BEAR the IMAGE of JESUS, the SECOND ADAM! We are REBORN to be LIKE JESUS!  AMEN! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/23: We follow this sequence in Scripture: The First Adam received life, the Last Adam is a life-giving Spirit. Physical life comes first, then spiritual—a firm base shaped from the earth, a final completion coming out of heaven. 1 Corinthians 15:45–47 (MSG)

WORD 4 Today 6/22: The seed sown is natural; the seed grown is supernatural—same seed, same body, but what a difference from when it goes down in physical mortality to when it is raised up in spiritual immortality! 1 Corinthians 15:44 MSG

Confess: My NATURAL seed will be TRANSFOMED into a SUPERNATURAL BODY!  My mortality will change to IMMORTALITY.  Wow God you are AMAZING!  Thank You JESUS! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/21: This image of planting a dead seed and raising a live plant is a mere sketch at best, but perhaps it will help in approaching the mystery of the resurrection body—but only if you keep in mind that when we’re raised, we’re raised for good, alive forever!... 1 Corinthians 15:42–43 MSG

Confess: That IMAGE is what I will be TRANSFORMED INTO, the IMAGE of GLORY.  I will be TOTALLY LIKE JESUS,  Amen! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/20: You get a hint at the diversity of resurrection glory by looking at the diversity of bodies not only on earth but in the skies—sun, moon, stars—all these varieties of beauty and brightness. And we’re only looking at pre-resurrection “seeds”—who can imagine what the resurrection “plants” will be like! 1 Corinthians 15:40–41 MSG

Confess: Wow God you are AMAZING!  My life is a SEED that will PRODUCE an incredible resurrection body.  I can’t wait to SEE what the LORD HAS DONE!  - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/19: We do have a parallel experience in gardening. You plant a “dead” seed; soon there is a flourishing plant. There is no visual likeness between seed and plant. You could never guess what a tomato would look like by looking at a tomato seed. What we plant in the soil and what grows out of it don’t look anything alike. The dead body that we bury in the ground and the resurrection body that comes from it will be dramatically different. 1 Corinthians 15:37–38 MSG

Confess: SPIRITUAL TRUTHS are found in something as simple as a SEED.  I PLANT the SEED OF THE WORD & RESURRECTION life will RESULT.  Amen.- P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/18: Some skeptic is sure to ask, “Show me how resurrection works. Give me a diagram; draw me a picture. What does this ‘resurrection body’ look like?” If you look at this question closely, you realize how absurd it is. There are no diagrams for this kind of thing. 1 Corinthians 15:35–36 MSG

WORD 4 Today 6/17: Think straight. Awaken to the holiness of life. No more playing fast and loose with resurrection facts. Ignorance of God is a luxury you can’t afford in times like these. Aren’t you embarrassed that you’ve let this kind of thing go on as long as you have? 1 Corinthians 15:34 MSG

Confess: I am COMMITTED & SUBMITTED to God. IGNORANCE can not be a part of my life. I am IN THE WORD & the WORD IS IN ME! I believe it will be as the WORD SAYS it will be. Amen! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/16: But don’t fool yourselves. Don’t let yourselves be poisoned by this anti-resurrection loose talk. “Bad company ruins good manners.” 1 Corinthians 15:33 MSG

Confess: Nope I’m not going to be FOOLED by those who DON’T BELIEVE!  I won’t allow their UNBELIEF to affect MY FAITH!  No, I BELIEVE JESUS rose from the dead and I WILL RISE FROM THE DEAD TOO!  My life is WITH CHRIST!  Hallelujah! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/15: …It’s resurrection, resurrection, always resurrection, that undergirds what I do and say, the way I live. If there’s no resurrection, “We eat, we drink, the next day we die,” and that’s all there is to it. 1 Corinthians 15:32 MSG

Confess: But the RESURRECTION of Jesus GUARENTEES the RESURRECTION of those WHO BELIEVE! I am a BELIEVER & I am also a RECEIVER of RESURRECTION LIFE! Amen! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/13:  But there is an order to this resurrection: Christ was raised as the first of the harvest; then all who belong to Christ will be raised when he comes back. 1 Corinthians 15:23 NLT

Confess: When the TRUMPET sounds the DEAD IN CHRIST will rise FIRST then those of us who are ALIVE at that time will be CAUGHT UP TOGETHER with them.  We will join them in the air & FOREVER BE WITH JESUS!  Glory to God! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/12: Just as everyone dies because we all belong to Adam, everyone who belongs to Christ will be given new life. 1 Corinthians 15:22 NLT

Confess: NEW LIFE, that’s what I have been GIVEN!  I have HOPE & A FUTURE because of the RESURRECTION of Jesus from the dead.  My FAITH is in a LIVING LORD today, AMEN! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/11: If all we get out of Christ is a little inspiration for a few short years, we’re a pretty sorry lot. But the truth is that Christ has been raised up, the first in a long legacy of those who are going to leave the cemeteries. 1 Corinthians 15:19–20 MSG

Confess: But truthfully I am INSPIRED & TRANSFORMED because of the RESURRECTION of Jesus.  He is the FIRSTFRUITS & the GUARENTEE that I will be RAISED FROM THE DEAD as well.  Hallelujah! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/10: And if Christ has not been raised, then your faith is useless and you are still guilty of your sins. 1 Corinthians 15:17 NLT

Confess: The RESURRECTION of Jesus from the dead is the MOST IMPORTANT belief that I can hold.  Otherwise my faith is WITHOUT MERIT & benefits NO ONE!  But Christ is RISEN, He is RISEN INDEED. - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/9: And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is in vain [it amounts to nothing] and your faith is devoid of truth and is fruitless (without effect, empty, imaginary, and unfounded). 1 Corinthians 15:14 AMP

Confess: I can’t imagine life without Jesus. If He did not rise from the dead my FAITH would be EMPTY & USELESS! Thank God I serve a RISEN LORD TODAY! Amen! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/8: And if Christ has not been raised, then all our preaching is useless, and your faith is useless. 1 Corinthians 15:14 NLT

Confess: But CHRIST IS RISEN from the dead. And my FAITH has EFFECT! He has SAVED ME & TRANSFORMED ME! I believe in the RISEN CHRIST today! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/7: But whatever I (Paul) am now, it is all because God poured out his special favor on me—and not without results. For I have worked harder than any of the other apostles; yet it was not I but God who was working through me by his grace. 1 Corinthians 15:10 NLT

Confess: God’s SPECIAL FAVOR is available to me today! The RESULTS of God in my life & my FAITH in Him are EVIDENT. God’s GRACE is sufficient of me today! He’s still WORKING through me as well. Amen! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/6: He (JESUS) was seen by Peter and then by the Twelve. After that, he was seen by more than 500 of his followers at one time…1 Corinthians 15:5–6 NLT

Confess: There is INCREDIBLE EVIDENCE for the RESURRECTION of Jesus from the dead! The TESTIMONY of so many SPEAKS TO ME today! And the fact that they went through fierce persecution shows the REALITY of the RESURRECTION of Jesus! Amen! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/5: I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me. Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said. 1 Corinthians 15:3–4 NLT

Confess: The MESSAGE of the RESURRECTION of Jesus is PARAMOUNT to our FAITH!  He really did FULFILL the SCRIPTURES.  I BELIEVE God’s WORD!  He is RISEN!  AMEN & AMEN! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/4: But all things should be done decently and in order. 1 Corinthians 14:40 ESV; But be sure that everything is done properly and in order. NLT

WORD 4 Today 6/3: When we worship the right way, God doesn’t stir us up into confusion; he brings us into harmony. This goes for all the churches—no exceptions. 1 Corinthians 14:33 MSG

Confess: The way we WORSHIP leads to HARMONY & PEACE & never confusion!  Our worship is to be GOD FOCUSED & not man oriented.  We always seek to LIFT UP the NAME of JESUS! Amen hallelujah! - P. Rick

WORD 4 Today 6/2: For God is not a God of disorder but of peace as in all the meetings of God’s holy people. 1 Corinthians 14:33 NLT

WORD 4 Today 6/1: Remember that people who prophesy are in control of their spirit and can take turns. 1 Corinthians 14:32 NLT; If you choose to speak, you’re also responsible for how and when you speak. MSG
