Day 498 John 19:28-37

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Obedience, For Christ endured death upon the Cross to fulfill the Scriptures. I Thank the Lord that it is through death that we achieve the Calling given unto us. I Thank the Father daily for being the example of true Obedience over sacrifice.

It is Written, “Later, knowing that everything had now been finished, and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.” A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus’ lips. When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit. Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down. The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and then those of the other. But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water. The man who saw it has given testimony, and his testimony is true. He knows that he tells the truth, and he testifies so that you also may believe. These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken,” and, as another scripture says, “They will look on the one they have pierced.” John 19:28-37

Prayer: Father, I Thank you for sending your Son for being the greatest example of Obedience to your people. I Pray as we are called to die to the Flesh, that all your children the importance to die to this World, so we may live for eternity in the next! I Pray these things in Jesus Name, Amen!
