Resurrected Life
Transformation requires transition. The word transition means death; dying to the old thing to embrace the new thing. The law of life is birth — the law of death is a new beginning.
Week 1: Follow Me
• Death is not the end, it’s a new beginning. God wants to separate you from sin to Him, from the system of the world to the kingdom of God. Read Luke 24:1–12.
• When Mary was trying to figure out who was going to roll the stone away, He had already moved it, and metamorphosis had taken place.
• The temporary tomb is a womb for your new resurrected life.
• Jesus said all the prophets, wisdom writers, and sages wrote about Him. Read Luke 24:25–27.
• Understand that the modern Pharisees are getting angrier and angrier. They want to crucify those of us who believe in the fullness of the Spirit.
PRAYER POINTS
• Ask God to search your heart and reveal old things, hidden sins, and anything that separates you from Him. Make a decision to let them go and lay everything fully at His feet.
• Pray for God to remove every “stone” that has made you stuck or blocked you from moving forward — fear, doubt, unbelief, unforgiveness, anger, sin, or disappointment toward God or others — and ask Him to open the way for you to encounter Him again.
• Are you going through challenges or situations that make you feel hopeless, discouraged, or confused because you do not know what else to do? Ask the Holy Spirit to position your heart in full surrender to the Father’s will and plan, like Abraham, Moses, and Samuel, and respond to Him: “Here I am, Lord.”
• Ask the Holy Spirit to strengthen your faith and help you trust God fully, even when you do not understand and cannot yet see the full picture of His plan.
• Praise Him for the empty tomb and the victory of Christ. Declare victory over every giant, obstacle, opposition, or assignment from the enemy that is trying to hinder you from walking in God’s purpose and calling in your life. Declare that you will walk in the new resurrected, victorious life God has given you through Christ.
Week 2: He Is Risen
• “He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.” (Matthew 28:6). The greeting “He is Risen!” / “He is Risen Indeed!” is more than tradition — it is a declaration of the central hope of the Christian faith.
• The early Church could not keep silent about the resurrection — neither should we. This truth empowered them to suffer, witness, and even die for Christ. (Read 2 Corinthians 4:10–12.)
• Resurrection power requires total submission to God. Paul had to go through that — trusting that only God can raise up what is dead.
• We are co-crucified with Christ and we are co-risen with Christ.
PRAYER POINTS
• Pray in thanksgiving for the resurrection of Jesus — that death has been defeated and we can live in His resurrection power. Let the power that raised Jesus from the dead fill your life today, turning every “dead” situation or dream into a living testimony. Declare divine restoration over broken dreams and relationships.
• Pray for God to empower you by His Spirit and give you courage and boldness to share the Good News, bring hope to others, heal the brokenhearted, and set the oppressed free. (Isaiah 61:1; Luke 4:18–19)
• Pray for God to give you strength in every trial, challenge, and hardship so that you remain anchored in His Word and stand firm in faith.
• Resurrection power requires surrender, just as Jesus surrendered His life completely to the Father’s will. Decide to fully surrender every area of life — your plans, fears, and struggles — to God and ask Him for deeper trust in His power to bring life and restoration to what seems dead or hopeless.
• Ask the Holy Spirit to help you break free from the bondage of sin and from old habits, mindsets, attitudes, identities, and insecurities. Pray that you will walk daily in His newness and in who God is calling you to be.
• Pray that Christ’s resurrection power, His great love, and His faithfulness will be revealed to others through your living testimony. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you live boldly for Christ every day so that your life reflects His character, truth, and love.
Week 3: Renewal and Transformation
• “If then you were raised with Christ…” Read Colossians 3:1–4.
• The need to set our minds on things above and to put to death earthly desires.
• The dangers of consumer Christianity and the misconception that grace gives a pass to sin.
• The theological concept of death, burial, and resurrection is the process of transformation.
• The importance of getting rid of anger, wrath, malice, and other ungodly behaviors, and clothing ourselves with the new self.
• Cultivate compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, patience, forgiveness, and love as key attributes of the new self.
PRAYER POINTS
• Pray for God to reveal any stronghold that has taken a foothold in your life — unforgiveness, anger, bitterness, abandonment, rejection, compromise, or ungodly beliefs — and come to Him in repentance. Ask the Father to heal any wounded place in your heart or life.
• Pray for the breaking of strongholds. Declare that every chain of bondage and every generational curse be broken in Jesus’ name. Renounce the spirits of fear, frustration, oppression, and confusion. Declare that they no longer have a foothold in your life, because you are redeemed and set free by the blood of Christ.
Ephesians 1:7 (ESV): “In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace.”
• God’s grace is divine power to overcome sin, not a pass to continue in it. Ask the Holy Spirit to transform your earthly desires so His grace truly transforms your heart, empowering you to walk in righteousness and not fall into cycles of sin.
• Pray that you will put off your old self and put on the new self in Christ, walking in faith, strength, compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, patience, forgiveness, love, power, and authority — in alignment with God’s Word and His ways.
• Pray for strength and courage to face adversity, break cycles of fear and frustration, and submit your life to God’s will so you may resist negativity and walk in victory.
• Ask the Holy Spirit to fill you with power, love, and a sound mind. Ask for courage and strength to refuse earthly desires and any form of intimidation from the enemy. (2 Timothy 1:7)
Week 4: Inner Journey to Transformation
• Read Ephesians 4:24 and Colossians 3:10–14.
• The whole story in Exodus is a story of separation. Before God does what He is about to do, He separates.
• Israel had to separate from Egypt and go down to the Red Sea, giving everything up with the risk that they might not get across.
• If they had not left Egypt, they could not have embraced the Promised Land.
• Unless you leave the world — unless you leave the sin of your old self — you cannot embrace the new self.
PRAYER POINTS
• God often brings transformation through separation, just like a caterpillar goes through a breakdown process during metamorphosis before becoming a butterfly. Pray for faith to step away from your “Egypt” (old patterns, sin, fear) and embrace the new beginning — the “Promised Land” God wants to bring you into.
• Pray for courage to separate from anything that draws you away from God and to move forward in obedience.
• Pray for God to remove doubt and unbelief when you face challenges, confusion, unexpected situations, or uncertain circumstances.
• Ask the Holy Spirit for deeper understanding of God’s Word and His heart. Pray that you will believe every promise He has spoken and that your faith will be strengthened to trust Him even when the future seems uncertain.
• Pray that God will help you walk daily in the new identity He has given you — His beloved son or daughter, redeemed by His blood, loved, forgiven, chosen, and called for a purpose. Declare that you are no longer defined by your past. Ask Him to teach you to live from that place of freedom, purpose, and calling.
• Ask the Holy Spirit to help you put on the new self and clothe you with compassion, kindness, humility, patience, and love (Colossians 3:10–12), so that your life reflects the character of Christ in everything you do.
