On the Christian calendar, Good Friday is more than just another day. It serves as a reminder of the Lord Jesus’ great love and sacrifice.
According to the Bible, Jesus’ perspiration turned into drops of blood in the final hours before His crucifixion (Luke 22:44). Imagine the anxiety, suffering, and burden of knowing what was about to happen. Nevertheless, he dealt with everything. The greatest victory turned out to be what appeared to be the final defeat.
Once a representation of pain and humiliation, the Cross has evolved into a representation of redemption, hope, and fresh starts.
Life won’t always be simple just because you believe in Jesus. However, it does imply that He supports us through all of our hardships, offering us calm when life seems overwhelming, strength when we feel weak, and direction when we feel lost.
Every miracle that Jesus worked required faith. Instead of waiting for things to happen, people went to Him, had a connection, and had faith.
The Good Friday Of, ‘My Family at the Foot of the Cross’
Families are welcome to attend the “My Family at the Foot of the Cross” event at the Universal Church this Good Friday, April 3, at 10 a.m. It’s a unique chance to get your loved ones together and present your concerns, aspirations, and prayers to God.
Families from all throughout the nation will gather to pray for protection, harmony, and peace in their homes.
Each visitor will get a little gratis bottle of consecrated olive oil as part of the event, which was organized by bishops and pastors. Simply said, consecration is the act of removing something from regular use and dedicating it to a higher purpose. The fact that the oil was blessed in Israel’s Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus gave up His will and triumphed, adds even greater significance to this.
It’s not about the oil itself when families use this blessed oil in prayer to anoint their homes and loved ones; rather, it’s about putting faith into practice and having faith that you too can overcome life’s obstacles, just as Jesus did.
Come to the foot of the Cross with us, where forgiveness, healing, and the start of a new tale are all possible.
Everyone is welcome, regardless of background or beliefs. Bring your loved ones, extend an invitation to your friends, and include anyone who is looking for direction and hope. Sometimes all it takes to change your life and your house is a tiny act of faith.
Disclaimer:
*The bottle supplied will have a small amount of blessed oil combined with olive oil. Please keep in mind that the oil itself has no magical abilities, but it can be utilized to strengthen your faith and resolve in order to overcome obstacles. The Universal Church’s spiritual advise should be viewed as a supplement to any scientifically established treatment you are taking. Always take your doctor’s advise. The Universal Church does not profess to be able to heal people, but it thinks that God can do so through faith.*
