Today's Devotion:
"PASSION WEEK FRIDAY"
In the USA, and many countries, the
Friday before Easter is called:
Holy Friday, Good Friday, and
Black Friday.
_______SCRIPTURE____________
Matt. 27:35-37
35 And they crucified Him, and parted
his garments, casting lots: that it might
be fulfilled which was spoken by the
prophet, They parted my garments
among them, and upon my vesture did
they cast lots.
36 And sitting down they watched him
there;
37 And set up over his head his
accusation written,
This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.
KJV
_______THOUGHT______________
It is called:
*Holy Friday, because innocence
surrendered to immorality;
*Black Friday, because the created
crucified the Creator;
*Good Friday, because Jesus was
crucified for man's GOOD!
Before God created all things by His
WORD, the PLAN was made.
The ONLY "Lamb of God" would be
sacrificed to PAY for mankind's sin!
Jesus is the "Lamb slain before the
foundation of the world!" (Rev. 13:8)
The omniscient God KNEW that man
would sin against Him, and NEED a
Savior!
Jesus is the "Lamb of God, which
taketh away the sin of the world."
(John 1:29)
THAT Friday was the day the Hebrew
nation sacrificed a lamb for the sins
of the people.
But God's PLAN included the OFFER
of REDEMPTION.
At 3pm, Jesus died physically on the
cross, and His Holy Spirit SPLIT the
vail in the temple, making the way
OPEN for ANYONE to come in
repentance to God through what
Jesus did.
It is BLACK that the created would
crucify the innocent CREATOR!
But it is GOOD that the CREATOR
would offer Himself for the created!
And THAT is why it is called:
HOLY FRIDAY!
Love ya!
