The Daily Devotional by Vince Miller

Speak Life | Mark 16:5-8

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day.

Today’s shout-out goes to Rob Kilgour from Ontario, Canada. Thank you for your generosity and partnership in Project 23. This one's for you today.

Our text today is Mark 16:5-8:

And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe, and they were alarmed. And he said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has risen; he is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.” And they went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had seized them, and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid. — Mark 16:5-8

Through the angel’s gentle words—“Do not be alarmed” and “He is risen”—we catch a glimpse of a profound reality: God’s peace and power dispel our deepest fears. In crushing sorrow, his presence transforms our despair into awe and gives birth to unshakeable hope. This isn’t a distant miracle but a living promise that Christ’s resurrection redefines our world, lifting us from grief into new life, anchored not in fleeting emotions but in the steadfast truth of his victory over death.

Transform your daily routines into moments of faith: when anxiety rises—before a challenging meeting, a tense conversation, or the midday slump—pause and declare aloud, “He is risen, and I need not fear.” Place a sticky note by your mirror or schedule a daily phone reminder at 3 pm to speak, “Do not be alarmed,” as a mid-afternoon reset. Let each spoken truth redirect your focus from stress to scripture, turning every ordinary moment into an opportunity to worship and trust Christ’s victory.

I am going to do this. Try it with me.

#EmptyTomb #Mark16 #NewBeginnings

ASK THIS:

  1. Which fear or doubt do I need to surrender to the risen Christ today?
  2. How has God’s past faithfulness strengthened my trust in his present work?
  3. Who in my life needs to hear the message “He is risen,” and how can I share it?
  4. What difference does it make to live each day under the reality of Christ’s victory over death?

DO THIS:

Write out and speak aloud the phrases, “He is risen” and “Do not be alarmed” each morning to ground your day in Christ’s victory.

PRAY THIS:

Lord Jesus, breathe your resurrection power into my fear and doubt, and remind me daily that you go before me. Amen.

"Living Hope."
