Easter is about the demonstration of resurrection power

You remember that the disciples were with Jesus for about three years and they did not really know him until He breathe on them and their understanding was opened.

“To whom also He showed Himself alive after His passion by
many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of things
pertaining to the kingdom of God”.

Everything in life demands genuine desperation, thirst, and endearing supplication.

resurrection. It is by revelation. We can pray for revelation as we engage in the knowledge of God.
