“Now Jesus was going up to Jerusalem. On the way, he took the Twelve aside and said to them, “We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!” Matthew 20:17-19, NIV
Jesus knew it was coming. He knew this was the big task He was to complete. Although He knew what was to come, He walked willingly towards death, in our name, and conquered it three days later when He rose again. Take a moment to soak that in.
As we meditate on this great sacrifice this month, may we be reminded of the personal and willing sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave His life for our ransom. Personally– for you.
