Let’s read Matthew, chapter 27.
IMAGINE yourself at the cross, hearing Jesus’ cry from the cross, “My God, My God, Why have You forsaken Me?” Vs. 46
Why did Christ become sin? Even more personally, for whom did He do it? Who will benefit from His resurrection?
Quietly listen to His Spirit whisper the words to your soul:
“He did it for you. He did it for you!”
The One who knew no sin became sin. (2 Corinthians 5:21) If He did not need to die for any other person in the whole world, He would have died for you—and He did die for you so that you might embrace and live out your identity as “the disciple Jesus loves.”
Allow yourself to respond to this glorious truth. He was raised for you!
Now share your heart with Jesus. Give thanks for His initiative in manifesting His glory and presence to you. He laid down His life— and took it up again—for you!
“Lord Jesus, I am so grateful that ____________________________. Revive me and send me with a new identity empowered by gratitude.”
