Hey there, wonderful kids! Easter Sunday is a super special day for many people around the world. It’s a time when we celebrate the amazing story of Jesus and His resurrection. To help you understand this beautiful event a little better, I’ve gathered 8 Bible verses that are perfect for Easter Sunday. Let’s dive in and discover the joy and hope these verses bring!
John 11:25-26
“Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?’”
This verse reminds us that Jesus is not just a person; He is the source of life! When we believe in Him, we have the promise of eternal life. How cool is that?
Matthew 28:5-6
“The angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.’”
Imagine being one of those women at the tomb! The angel’s message is filled with hope. Jesus has risen, just like He promised. This is the heart of Easter!
Luke 24:6-7
“He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’”
These verses encourage us to remember the words of Jesus. He knew what would happen, and He fulfilled His promise. That’s why we celebrate!
Mark 16:6
“‘Don’t be alarmed,’ he said. ‘You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him.’”
Once again, we hear the great news that Jesus has risen. It’s a reminder that even when things seem sad, there is always hope because Jesus is alive!
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
This verse shows us just how much God loves us! He gave us Jesus, and through Him, we can have eternal life. That’s the best gift ever!
Romans 6:4
“We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.”
When we follow Jesus, we get to start fresh! Just like He was raised from the dead, we can live a new life full of hope and joy.
1 Corinthians 15:55-57
“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
These verses remind us that death is not the end. Because of Jesus, we have victory over sin and death. How amazing is it to know we can celebrate life forever?
Revelation 1:18
“I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.”
Jesus is alive forever! He conquered death and holds the keys to life. This verse is a powerful reminder that we can trust Him completely.
Easter Sunday is a time of joy, hope, and celebration! These 8 Bible verses remind us of the incredible love Jesus has for us and the amazing gift of eternal life.
