Easter is such a beautiful time. It’s when we remember how much God loves us. But sometimes, life gets so busy that we don’t take time to slow down and truly think about what Easter means.
This 4 week devotional plan is a gentle way to do just that—slow down, reflect, and spend time with Jesus. Whether you’re a teenager, a parent, or someone just wanting to feel closer to God, this plan is for you.
Let’s walk together—week by week—toward Easter, with open hearts.
Week 1: Remember God’s Promise
Theme: God keeps His word—even when we don’t.
Read: Isaiah 53:4–6, Genesis 3:15, John 3:16
From the very beginning, God promised to send a Savior. And He did. Jesus came because of love. His love is not something we earn. It’s something He freely gives.
Let It Sink In:
Think about a time someone made a promise and didn’t keep it. Maybe it hurt. Now remember: God never breaks His promises. That’s a big deal.
Pray From the Heart:
“God, thank You for loving me even when I don’t deserve it. Help me trust Your promises.”
Week 2: Walk Beside Jesus
Theme: Jesus didn’t run from pain—He faced it for you.
Read: Matthew 21:1–11, Luke 22:39–46
Imagine being in the crowd as Jesus rode into Jerusalem. People cheered, waved palm branches, and shouted “Hosanna!” But just a few days later, He was alone, praying in a garden, knowing what was coming.
Let It Sink In:
Jesus could’ve walked away. But He didn’t. He walked right into suffering—because He loves you.
Pray From the Heart:
“Jesus, thank You for choosing love over comfort. Help me follow You, even when life is hard.”
Week 3: Sit at the Foot of the Cross
Theme: Jesus died so you could live.
Read: John 19:1–30, Romans 5:6–8
This week is heavy. It’s when we face the cross. The pain. The sacrifice. The unfairness. But it’s also when we realize just how deeply Jesus loves us.
Let It Sink In:
Jesus didn’t die just for “the world”—He died for you, personally. That’s how valuable you are to Him.
Pray From the Heart:
“Jesus, thank You for dying in my place. I don’t fully understand that kind of love, but I want to know it more.”
Week 4: Celebrate the Empty Tomb
Theme: Jesus is alive—and so is our hope.
Read: Luke 24:1–12, 1 Corinthians 15:20–22
The sadness of Friday turned into joy on Sunday. Jesus beat death! And because He lives, we have hope—even in our darkest days.
Let It Sink In:
Resurrection means your story isn’t over. God is still writing it. And it’s going to be beautiful.
Pray From the Heart:
“Jesus, thank You for rising again. Fill my heart with joy and remind me that nothing is too broken for You to heal.
