In a serene setting along the Jordan River, Jesus submitted to baptism by John the Baptist. As He emerged from the water, the heavens opened and the Spirit of God descended upon Him like a dove, while a voice proclaimed, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

This powerful moment signified the inauguration of Jesus’ ministry and set the tone for the message of repentance, renewal, and the coming of the Kingdom of God.
