As A Christian Easter is the most important, meaningful and special Holiday! Some of you may wonder what about Christmas? Well of course Christmas is super important and special too it's all about that beautiful baby being born in a manger who came to save us from our sins. Without the Birth of Jesus none of the prophecies could be fulfilled.
But Easter oh Easter! We have Passover and Good Friday! All of Easter week is so important it’s such a Holy week leading up to Jesus being crucified on the cross. It all starts with Palm Sunday when Jesus entered Jerusalem. The road was paved with palm leaves, and he rode in on a donkey just like the prophecy said!
Can you imagine the excitement.
They all thought he was there to save them from the Roman Empire, but little did they understand he came to save them from their sins and to give them a chance at eternity.
Oh, it gives me the chills!
Holy Monday Jesus shows that he has human emotions including anger when He freed the sacrificial animals and cleansed the temple!
Holy Tuesday Jesus taught at the temple that week leading up to his death, he sure loved people.
Holy Wednesday breaks my heart. One of Jesus own disciples whom he loved and called a friend betrayed him by promising to kiss Jesus in front of the soldiers who would lead him to his execution. He did this for some measly silver. Jesus knew he would but still ate dinner with him at the last supper and even said as he kissed him to do what he came to do. Jesus knew it had to occur for the result, and he chose suffering for us when he could call hundreds of thousands of angels to rescue Him!
Maundy Thursday was the last supper with Jesus, and He had already known Judas had made a deal with the soldiers and still sat and ate and loved him! Man, if we could only be like Jesus in that regard. Jesus even washed his disciples’ feet! Can you imagine!!
This takes us to Good Friday the day Jesus was crucified on the cross and bore the sins of the whole world! But don’t worry Sunday is coming!! The second Jesus died the whole world was covered in darkness. I love the part of this day where one of the criminals on the cross next to Jesus told him he believed and in that very moment Jesus forgave him and said he would see him in paradise! Amazing, just amazing!
On Holy Saturday Jesus rested in the tomb.
And Easter Sunday the show above all shows the wonderfulness we’ve all been waiting for all week!! Jesus has risen!! All our sins were washed away by the blood of the lamb! Death cannot destroy us now; it no longer has a sting!! The Devil at that moment is forever defeated!
Friends no matter what you’re going through how low you feel, how insignificant we can feel at times, remember that you were important enough, loved enough and cherished enough for Jesus to suffer, be beaten, spit on, tortured and finally killed to save you from death and sin.
He gave you a clean slate to be able to spend eternity in heaven with him! Hallelujah Easter is a BIG deal, wouldn’t you agree???
Have a blessed Easter this month!
