Cross in Crisis - Prevail in Prayer

 Hey there,

Crisis. It's a word that's been on everyone's lips lately. It's that moment when trouble hits hard, and everything seems to hang in the balance. And right now, it feels like the whole world is in the grip of one massive crisis. But here's the thing – we're not the first to face something like this.

Jesus himself went through an unimaginable crisis on the cross.

Think about it.

The crucifixion wasn't just a bad day for Jesus; it was the ultimate crisis. He wasn't just facing physical pain; he was taking on the sins of the world. And he did it all for us and as us (2 Corinthians 5:2). 

Imagine that – being whipped, beaten, and nailed to a cross for things you didn't do. That's what Jesus endured, not just for himself, but for his family, his friends, and yes, for all of us.

Seeing someone as pure and blameless as Jesus go through such a horrific ordeal was heart-wrenching for those who loved him. And even though it was all part of a bigger plan, let's not forget – Jesus felt every bit of that pain.

He was human, just like us. He cried, he hurt, he bled.

But here's where the real lesson comes in. Life isn't just about prosperity. It's also about facing the tough stuff – the pressure, the pain, and yes, the crises. And how did Jesus handle his crisis? He prevailed in prayer. He didn't wallow in self-pity; He prayed.

So, what's our takeaway? When we're in the thick of our own crises, feeling like we're nailed to our own crosses, we've got to pray. It's what Jesus did, and it's a powerful example for us all.
