Pastor Lezou Dali preached the main sermon on Resurrection Sunday April 21, 2019 at Calvary Living Faith Church in Harlem. The title of Pastor Dali's sermon was "THE POWER OF RESURRECTION". Pastor Dali asked the congregation: "What does it mean to be resurrected?" Pastor Dali referenced Scripture MATTHEW 28: 5 - 8. (5) And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. (6) He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. (7) And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. (8)And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word." Pastor Dali noted they were afraid upon learning that Jesus had risen. "The Angel said don't be afraid because you came to see Jesus resurrected. No need to come with fear. Come with joy!" Pastor Dali preached the powerful 4 Words: "THE TOMB IS EMPTY!" Pastor Dali stated that today, the tomb of Jesus is still empty. "Resurrection is a Victory over death," the pastor preached. "Those who follow Jesus will also be resurrected. There is evidence of of resurrection for tomorrow. The power that of the resurrection of Jesus is still here today. THE RESURRECTION IS PROOF THAT JESUS IS ALIVE." Pastor Dali preached that the enemies of Jesus, and the religious leaders recognized Jesus was resurrected. Pastor Dali stated that today there are 2 sides of Resurrection:
1) Those who believe the Resurrection and 2) Those who don't believe Resurrection. Pastor Dali quoted Scripture ACTS 2: 22-32. "God resurrected Jesus. His body could now stay in the tomb," Pastor Dali preached. Pastor Dali preached that the Old Testament speaks of the last day of Resurrection in: ISAIAH 26: 19. This old Testament scripture recognizes there is life after death, Pastor Dali stated.
And The New Testament speaks of resurrection in Scripture 1 CORINTH. 15: 50-55. "This Resurrection concerns all of us," Pastor Dali preached. "All of those who die will be resurrected. JOHN 5:28-29. We will all be resurrected whether we are just or unjust. The only difference is that those who accept Jesus will go somewhere else from those who don't accept Jesus." Pastor Dali stated that Jesus was our Justice, the one who forgives our sins. "Those who follow Jesus will have eternal life and blessing. Those who don't follow Jesus will have eternal shame, and eternal damnation in the Lake of Fire," Pastor Dali preached.
DANIEL 12: 2-3. REVELATION 21: 1 - 8.
"THE WORD IS CLEAR. IF YOU ARE DEPRESSED, TEMPTED, SICK, RECLAIM AND PROCLAIM THE POWER OF THE RESURRECTION IN YOUR LIFE." PASTOR DALI.
AMEN BLESSED BY HIS HOLY NAME.
