Philippians 3:10a (NIV)
I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection . . .

The resurrection continues to provide fuel for life for those who receive its power.  

While the resurrection is an historical fact, we sell it short if we leave it in history.

1 Peter 5:6-11(NIV)
6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings. 10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
Four Actions for Emotional Readiness:
1. Humble Yourself.
One of the biggest roadblocks we face in handling our emotions in a healthy manner is our pride.

2. Cast Your Anxiety.
God equipped you with emotions so that you could live your life with stability and honesty.  

3. Be Self-Controlled and Alert.
As His child, God cares for you; as God’s child, the devil considers you prey.  

True faith is founded on trust in Jesus as your Lord, not on highlights of spiritual experience.
Isaiah 30:15 (NIV)
This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says:
“In repentance and rest is your salvation,
    in quietness and trust is your strength,
    but you would have none of it."

4. Resist Satan (by Standing).
In your journey of faith, you will encounter times when you need to harness all the power of your emotions and take a stand of resistance against the attack of the devil.
