Most High will cover you with his shadow so the boy will be called the son of God nothing is impossible for God I am the servant of the Lord may everything happen According to his will Mary was engaged to Joseph a righteous and hardworking man when he found out that Mary was expecting a baby he was very worried and not wanting Mary to be defamed he decided to leave her secretly but that night While he was sleeping an angel appeared in his dream Joseph Don't be afraid to marry Mary said the angel what is happening is the work of God the baby she is expecting is the Savior and you must call him of Jesus take good care of them when Joseph woke up he decided to trust in God he looked for Mary and said Mary I had a dream an angel told me everything let's raise this boy together As God asked us Thank you Joseph I knew you would understand some time later the Emperor ordered all the people to return to their hometowns for a recen so Joseph and Mary were working as Joseph was a Carpenter Joseph turned to Mary who was about to give birth and said Mary according to Caesar's decree we need to go to Bethlehem to enlist is the city My family's okay, I know it will be difficult but God will be with us the journey was long and tiring Maria was sitting on a donkey and José was along walking by her side it was not at all easy it was four days of walking until arriving in Belém when they got there the city was full of people José knocked on the doors of several inns please do you have any rooms available are they not all occupied replied the owner of each inn finally tired they knocked on another inn the place was already full but the owners of that place took pity on them and I said I don't have any more room available but you can use my stable it's not very comfortable but it's clean and protected Joseph looked at Mary who nodded it will be enough Thank you very much that night among the animals Jesus was born Mary wrapped him in swaddling clothes and placed him in a manger Joseph looked at the baby with emotion he's so small but he's already so special yes Joseph he's the son of God meanwhile in the fields near Bethlehem some shepherds were taking care of their sheep suddenly the sky lit up and an angel appeared don't be afraid he said the Angel seeing that the shepherds were scared I bring good news that will cheer everyone today in Bethlehem

not to return to Herod they obeyed by leaving another way after the visit of the wizards King Herod became restless he did not like the idea of another king being worshiped even if he was a baby when he realized that the wise men would not come back to tell him where Jesus was Herod became furious in his great Throne hall He gathered his advisors and Generals these Magi deceived me they said they would return but they disappeared one of the advisors tried to calm him Majesty maybe we can send Spies to find them and find out where that boy is we don't have time for that this baby is a threat to

began to be instituted And you are right, God instituted Easter, it is a festival that Celebrates the departure of the Hebrew people from Egypt after 400 Years of Slavery . Hebrews left Egypt without time to let the bread ferment and bitter herbs remind us of the bitterness of the Hebrews' life under the rule of the Egyptians who made them work hard as you know all this Jesus my father taught me everything I know the boys looked at each other thinking that Jesus was talking about Joseph their earthly father but Jesus was referring to God their heavenly father and so they continued their journey a journey of five days walking during the day and at night they rested and the next day they continued their journey until they arrived in Jerusalem Look we are arriving We are arriving Mary and It's good that the journey was peaceful, yes Joseph coming to celebrate Easter here in Jerusalem is always a joy and the journey becomes light when we know that it is to worship God where you stayed we will stay at Zechariah's house and then we will meet at the party see you later friend so each one went their own way Mary Joseph and Jesus arrived at Zechariah's house who were your relatives but what a happiness to welcome you the happiness is all ours it's always good R the relatives it's your house you know you are always welcome in ours humble home thank you for welcoming us and Jesus Wow this boy is getting more and more beautiful and healthy as you always say Maria He is a different boy you can see just by looking at him yes as the Angel told us he grows with the protection and blessing of God good I have already prepared dinner let's eat maybe we are Hungry because of the trip and John the Baptist Where is your boy John is in the temple He is a boy consecrated to God we were graced by God with these two blessed boys It's true just thank you so na Next morning, everyone at the Easter festival Yes, let's celebrate with joy the day in which God freed our people from Egypt, then they left the house of Elizabeth and Zechariah and followed the road until they reached the temple, arriving at the temple. Jesus said, I'm going to walk around to follow the feast, you can go, my son, but be careful not to get lost, there were many people happy with the feast and Jesus walked among them, just watching, then Jesus entered the temple where there were doctors of the Law talking about the Bible, he sat and listened to them talk, brothers at Easter, we must sacrifice a healthy Lamb, roast it whole and eat it all together with bitter herbs and unleavened bread to remember the day that Moses freed the people from Egypt and also to remember that the Israelites placed the blood of the lamb on the doors of their houses so that the Angel of Death would pass over them and not reach them and Jesus sat down and watched attentively after finishing the meetings, everyone went to their homes and Jesus also returned but every day of the festival the baby Jesus returned to the temple to follow the conversation.
the days of the Easter festival Joseph and Mary said goodbye to their relatives Zechariah and Elizabeth, thank you for everything as you always welcomed us with great affection, imagine we are all brothers and we are together by faith in God whenever you need us you can come back look Joseph the caravan is already leaving well so let's go so as not to be left behind and Jesus where he must be I saw him leaving towards the caravan before then he must be together with the other boys well that's how it is then let's go then we continued on our journey spending a day traveling Mary said to Joseph Joseph let's look for Jesus since we left Jerusalem We haven't seen him Let's go Maria, let's go to the part of the caravan where Paul is, Jesus must be there talking to his boys, they went out looking for the caravan Because there were many people thinking, but they thought that Jesus was with his friends, they were looking among the relatives and acquaintances, so finding Paul, they asked Paul, Is Jesus with you, no, Maria, since we left Jerusalem, we haven't heard from Jerusalem anymore, what happened, Where is our son, Jesus, calm down, Mary, you forgot that he is the son of God, no harm will happen to him, let's go back and look for him, yes, let's go back immediately, good luck, friends, God. bless you and so Joseph and Mary returned to Jerusalem Elizabeth Zechariah but what happened Something did happen we don't know where Jesus is we're looking but we didn't find him in the calm Caravan Mary we're going to look for him I'm sure he's fine so let's go We can't waste time and they started looking for Jesus they went through various streets of Jerusalem they looked in various places until after THREE days They found him in the temple sitting among the doctors listening to them And questioning them then they were amazed because they saw Jesus in the midst of doctors speaking with authority and if my people who are called by my name humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their evil ways then I will hear from heaven and I will forgive their sins and I will heal their land boy where he learned all these things about the holy scriptures my father taught me everything I know and the doctors of the Law were astonished by the intelligence and wisdom of Jesus so after the end of the conversation Mary said to Jesus my son why did you act like this towards us your father and I were they were in anguish looking for you because they were looking for me, don't you know that I have to be in my father's house and they didn't understand the words I was saying to them but they were amazed to see Jesus speaking boldly in the midst of doctors of the Law so after finding him he returned with them and they went to Nazareth and Jesus was submissive to them. spirit in stature and full of wisdom for the grace of God was upon him then time passed and Jesus grew and it happened that while the people were waiting, they thought in their hearts whether it would be the Christ John answered everyone saying I truly baptize you with water but Behold, he who is more powerful comes than I, who am not worthy to untie the straps of his sandals from his feet, he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire, he has a fan in his hand and he will clear his threshing floor and gather the wheat into his barn but he will burn the straw with fire that never goes out and thus admonishing us if he was baptizing, Jesus from Galilee came to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him but John said to him I must be baptized by You and you come to me Jesus, however, answering, John said to him, leave it at this time, for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness, so he allowed him to be baptized .
40 days and 40 nights [Music] [Music] there in the desert Jesus went to pray for 40 days without eating he won he showed the power [Music] next door nothing will fear oh Jesus of John in the desert he had faith in his heart evil he defeated Jesus je juão in the desert he had strength and trust in the Lord the enemy tried to deceive but Jesus knew what to say only the word of God is good it is what feeds my heart Jesus fasted in the desert he had faith in his heart he defeated evil Jesus fasted in the near future [Music] he taught us to have strength and trust in the [Applause] Lord when we pray and leave the l alone Jesus helps us to always trust with love in the chest and strength to fight the victory comes just [Music] believe oh Jesus you deserted Jesus the desert remained in your heart the evil he poured out on you Jesus fasted Jesus fasted in the desert remained deserted he taught us to have strength and trust in the Lord [Music] [Music] after fasting 40 days and 40 nights he did not eat anything and when the days were over he was hungry then when the tempter came to him he said if you are the son of God command that these stones become bread but he answered and said it is written Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God then the devil took him to the holy city and placed him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him if you are the son of God cast yourself from here below because it is written that he will command his angels concerning you and will take you in his hands so that you will never strike your foot against a stone . and when the devil had finished, all temptation left him for some time and behold, the angels arrived and served him after these things by the power of the Spirit Jesus returned to Galilee and his fame spread throughout all the lands around him and he taught in their synagogues and was praised by everyone and arriving in Nazareth where he was raised he entered on a Sabbath day according to his custom in the synagogue and stood up to read and was given the book of the prophet Isaiah and when he opened it the book found the place where it was written the spirit of the Lord is upon me because he anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor he sent me to heal the brokenhearted to preach freedom to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind to set at liberty the oppressed to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord and closing the book and giving it back to the Minister he sat down and the eyes of everyone in the synagogue were focused on him then he began to tell them today whether this scripture has been fulfilled so that the word may reach their ears and they all bore witness to him and marveled at the words of grace that came out of his mouth and said, Isn't this the son of Joseph the carpenter, how does he know all these things and he said to them? Without a doubt you will tell me this medical proverb, heal yourself, do also here in your country all that we heard was done in Capernaum and I said to them again, truly I say to you, no prophet is well received in his land, truly I say to you, many widows are extinct.
