His flesh for ours? The essence of sacrifice transcends mere giving. Even outnumbered, we can still know a path to victory. Despite personal loss, hope always advance us. Sacrifice isn't just giving all; it's paving the way for triumph amidst adversity, even at the cost of one's life.
Think about it. The greatest day: When Jesus returns, we'll see His battle scars, proof of His fight to save us. Talk about sacrifice?
God’s Word tells us: “Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One; you are the one Israel praises. In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them.” (Psalms 22:1-8).
Upon the cross, Satan mercilessly assailed Jesus until His body writhed in hellish pain. Unarmed, Jesus endured to breach Satan's lines, sealing his fate. With swords in hand, we advance through the breach, victorious because Jesus was crushed for our triumph. This will be our greatest day! Jesus paved the way. All we need to do is follow. His flesh for ours.
We pray. “Heavenly Father, in Your agony on the cross, You bore the relentless assault of Satan, securing our victory. With swords of faith, we advance through the breaches You've opened. Your sacrifice paves our path to redemption. In Jesus name. Amen!”
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own” (Matthew 6:34)
