Resurrection of Jesus
Christ is risen. What a privilege to be identified amongst the body christ. The power that raised Him from the grave Now works in us to powerfully save. He frees our hearts to live His grace; Go tell of His goodness.
Wishing you all, a beautiful Easter celebration. Do not forget the reason for the season.
Jesus Christ is risen today, Alleluia,
our triumphant holy day; alleluia,
who did once upon the cross; alleluia,
suffer to redeem our loss; alleluia!
Hymns of praise then let us sing; Alleluia,
unto Christ our heavenly king; alleluia,
who endured the cross and grave; alleluia,
sinners to redeem and save: alleluia!
But the pains which he endured; Alleluia,
our salvation have procured; alleluia,
now above the sky he's King; alleluia,
where the angels ever sing: alleluia!
From "Surrexit Christus hodie", anon., C14, trans. John Baptist Walsh in Lyra Davidica, 1708

This playlist is to remind you that Jesus was Scourged and Crucified for your sake. The meaning of Easter is Jesus Christ's victory over death. His resurrection symbolizes the eternal life that is granted to all who believe in Him. The meaning of Easter also symbolizes the complete verification of all that Jesus preached and taught during His three-year ministry. If He had not risen from the dead, if He had merely died and not been resurrected, He would have been considered just another teacher or Rabbi. However, His resurrection changed all that and gave final and irrefutable proof that He was really the Son of God and that He had conquered death once and for all. Keep reading.

Good Friday is a Christian holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus and his death at Calvary. Most people are aware that good Friday is observed during the Holy Easter Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, and Black Friday. Members of many Christian denominations, including the Anglican, Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran, Methodist, Oriental Orthodox, and Reformed traditions, observe Good Friday with fasting and church services.
Since good Friday happens to be a holiday, here are things you can do on this special Easter holiday.
Pray and Fast:
Well, as Christians we are to watch and pray and this is a good time to pray and connect with the heavens.
Worship:
Easter is a Christian holiday that celebrates the belief in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus already did it all and that is enough reason to soak yourself in worship today.
Praise:
To praise is to express respect and gratitude. You can praise God for the opportunity of seeing another Easter Friday and for all he has done for you.
Show Love:
You can show love on Good Friday, by visiting charity homes, street beggars, and the less privileged. Remember Jesus showed love even on the cross of Calvary.
Reconcile:
I believe that when special months and days that celebrate Jesus come around God pours out blessings to his people. What more can hinder your blessings if not sin. This is the best time to reconcile and let go. Today, Jesus died that you might be saved, leave your burdens at the cross and he will bear them for you.
Stay blessed.

What does it commemorate?
Maundy Thursday commemorates the Last Supper, which Christians consider the institution of Holy Eucharist, also known as the Lord's supper or communion.

Polka dots are most commonly seen on children's clothing, toys, and furniture, but they appear in a wide array of contexts.

Nigeria is in a bad state at the moment; we can hardly hear about military or force power abuse to a Nigerian citizen each week. Nigeria is the only country where you cannot ask a police officer to show you his identity card without getting beaten. Luxury has suddenly become a crime in Nigeria.
The Nigerian government has set up a body to fight against internet fraud and crimes (the Special Anti-Robbery Squad), a unit of the Nigerian police. As we speak, the lives of the citizens of Nigeria are not sure; they are currently abusing and misusing power, stealing from the citizens, and harassing them. The Nigerian government has been turning deaf ears to its citizens. iPhones have suddenly become a crime in Nigeria. SARS officials accuse and beat up iPhone users, asking them why they carry such expensive phones.
The Nigerian police are one of the most corrupt systems in the world, with the maximum number of illiterates who cannot read or write and are asked to protect the people of Nigeria, not even knowing the law. Weeks ago, as seen on Instablog Naija, a police officer shot a man who had just returned from abroad, stating that he looked overdressed and should be questioned, which led to his being killed. The Nigerian police are full of brainless men who do not understand the law and, as such, cannot protect the people. It is a shame that our government has decided to ridicule Nigeria and allow these men to threaten the people of Nigeria with a state of sadness. We are not free to move around in our own country.
My cousin visited Nigeria, and just when his brother stopped his car, Sars officials arrested them and took them to the station, asking their parents to pay the sum of 20,000 naira without stating any crime. This happens so often in Nigeria and is being overlooked by our so-called government after all their families are not affected.
We are asking the government to speak out and stop these heartless killings and misuse of guns among Nigerian citizens, or we will start fighting back. We cannot be slaves in our own country and act in fear every day. #peroid
