Philippians 3:10 "that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection..." NAS
The power of His resurrection from the dead is assurance that we also will be resurrected and spend eternity with Him. But the power of His resurrection also means to me that we have been joined to God. We were once separated from God, dead in our transgressions and sins and far from God. Unable to hear His voice and unable to commune with Him. But the power of His resurrection changed all of that. When Jesus was resurrected and went to be with the Father in heaven, He sent another, the Comforter to dwell inside of us. His resurrection provided the Spirit of God who came and walks with me, talks with me and enables me to have sweet communion with my Lord.
His resurrection power has resurrected me from the dead - the dead place of living according my carnal nature - and has made me alive with Him. ( Ephesians 2:1-6) His resurrection power has resurrected us from sin, from selfishness,from hatred, from darkness, and from the grip of demonic influence. The power of His resurrection demonstrates its power everyday in my life as I am filled with His life, His joy, and His love.
