Good Afternoon Facebook!!
I’m so excited... It’s Friday but not just any Friday, it’s GOOD FRIDAY! The day that Jesus went to Calvary, was crucified and died for all of our sins. You’re probably thinking, if this is the day that Jesus died, then why am I excited??
I’m happy because when they mocked Jesus, whipped him, nailed his hands and feet, placed the crown of thorns on his head and pierced his side, they thought that that was it but, it wasn’t!!! On the third day he rose again with ALL power!! 🙌🏾
What does this mean for us you ask??? It means that we have access to God, Jesus said “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (I John 14:6).” It means that by every stripe that he took, we are healed. It means that he took our punishments for us, he paid the price for our sins and prayed that we’d be forgiven and that’s a debt that we can never repay.
Today, remember Jesus! Thank Him for not being selfish. Thank Him for sacrificing His life so that WE can live. Praise God for giving us his only begotten Son so that we can have eternal life and when you lay down to rest tonight, give the Lord all of your worries, burdens, imperfections, faults, shame, hurt and uncertainties so that they can be buried in the tomb with him. Pray on those things for the next two days and when you awake on Sunday, Resurrection Sunday, give God the glory because those things that you symbolically buried will be left in that tomb just like Jesus’ grave clothes; and when you arise, just know that you’ve been forgiven, set free, made whole and adorned with new grace and mercy!
I love ya’lll ❤️ It’s Good Friday and I’m excited about it!! 🙏🏾🙌🏾
