Easter: Be Hopeful Things Will Get Better -Osinbajo Encourages Nigerians
Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo has urged Nigerians to have great hope that things would get better for the nation.
The Vice president stated this on Sunday while briefing newsmen after the Easter service at the Aso Villa Chapel.
Osinbajo in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande, prayed that Nigeria will experience the grace and mercy of God.
Osinbajo added that the message of Easter is a message of the special and exceeding love and grace of God.
“I just want to thank God for our nation, and pray that our nation will experience the grace and mercy of God in so many different ways that we are expecting His grace and mercy. All will be well in Jesus name.
“God’s plan for humanity was that Christ will die and will resurrect. The resurrection is evidence of the fact that those who believe would be saved eternally and would live eternal joy and peace with the Almighty. And that promise is open to every single person.
“Whoever you are, that promise is open to you. That is, if you subscribe to that plan, if you accept that Christ died for you and rose again, and that the plan is fulfilled in the resurrection.”
Osinbajo further stated that the Easter season was “of great joy because we celebrate the evidence of the plan of God. In some way, God has given us a receipt of our salvation and it’s really exciting.”
