Hi, this is Victoria. Thank you so much for downloading this podcast. I believe God has amazing

things in your future. I hope you enjoy this message.

Jola and I were at a restaurant having a lovely dinner one evening. We had been sitting there for a

while chatting, but we were ready to go. So we called the waiter over to asking for our check.

And he said, oh, I'm sorry, I should have been over here earlier. He said there was a man in the corner

booth right there. And he already paid your bill. He paid the tip and all. He said, you guys are

free to go. Jola and I looked at each other and we thought, man, that's awesome. That's good news.

Somebody paid our bill. But can I tell you today there's a man who has already paid your bill.

He's already canceled your debt. It is paid in full. And his name is Jesus Christ. See,

we've been talking about it all day. It's the Easter message. It is finished. It is done. He has

already created you in his righteousness when you are found in him. He has given you the power

of the resurrection. Jola quoted it earlier, the same power that raised him from the dead is a

live in you. You see, you've got resurrection power. God has given you mercy and grace so that you

can go in this resurrected life. You are free to go. How do we live this resurrected life?

We don't want to just talk about it. We don't want to just come in here on Easter and say, yes,

Jesus is alive. We want to live the life that he died to give us. We want everything that Jesus

died to give us. Can you imagine if you did something for someone, you labored for someone,

you gave it, you're all and they weren't interested. You see, Jesus gave it his all because he

wanted me and you. He wanted us to be interested. He wanted us to walk in power. So we have to take

hold of everything that he took hold for us. The Apostle Paul said in Philippians, he said,

I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold for me. He said, I have to press.

You see, sometimes it's hard to take hold of the things that are right there in front of you
