Sanctified Steps: Daily Devotional| When the Stone Was Rolled Away| Matthew 28:6 (KJV)

Scripture:

“He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.”Matthew 28:6 (KJV)

Reflection:

Sometimes, we stand outside the “tomb” in our lives—places where hope feels buried, prayers seem unanswered, and silence lingers. But Easter morning reminds us that God is always working, even when it looks like everything is over.

The stone was rolled away before the women arrived. The miracle was already in motion. Just because you don’t see the breakthrough yet, doesn’t mean it hasn’t begun.

God often moves while we wait. Resurrection doesn’t always come with trumpet blasts—it sometimes arrives in quiet light, early in the morning, when we’re still wrapped in mourning.

Daily Wisdom Insight:

God doesn't need your awareness to do His work.
Sometimes, the greatest victories happen behind the scenes—while you're still grieving, still praying, still waiting.

Application:

What “stone” have you been staring at—believing it’s immovable?
Take a moment to name it. Then remember: God rolled away the one at Jesus’ tomb. He’s still rolling stones today.

Prayer:

Lord,

 thank You for resurrection hope.
Even when I feel like I’m standing outside the tomb, help me believe You’re already at work.
Roll away every doubt, every fear, every lie that keeps me stuck.
Let me walk in the joy of Your risen presence.

Amen.

💬 Discussion Question:

  1. What “stone” in your life has God already moved, even when you didn’t expect it?
  2. How can you live today like the tomb is already empty?
