Rev. Mawuli Tsikata, Radio Pastor for Citi FM and Lead Pastor of Grace Centre Church, has urged Christians to reflect on the resurrection of Jesus Christ as a reminder of God’s power to fulfil His promises.
Preaching on Channel One TV’s Easter Special programme on Easter Sunday, he said the resurrection stands as the greatest assurance of God’s faithfulness to believers.
Drawing from Matthew 16:21, Rev. Tsikata emphasised the resurrection should strengthen Christians’ confidence in the fulfilment of scripture.
“This morning as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, there is an announcement that is greater than any other announcement for your life, and that announcement is that God fulfils His promises over your life,” he said.
He noted that the resurrection was unexpected to many who witnessed it, yet it confirmed what Jesus had earlier said about rising on the third day.
Rev. Tsikata encouraged Christians to hold on to their faith and the message of Easter as a declaration of hope and fulfilment.
“Maybe you have read God’s word and you have faith and you are trusting but it looks so impossible in your eyes. The disciples went through the same, these women went through same. You are not the only person who is going through a time or a season where things look difficult to believe but that which is sure is that, even in our unbelief, even in what looks like doubt in our hearts, God still looks upon his word and he fulfills it in our lives,” he said
As Christians marked Resurrection Sunday, he prayed that believers would remain assured of God’s promises in their lives.
