Good Friday: Jesus was given vinegar instead of water to drink

-

Every day of our lives when we drink a glass of water especially when we are thirty, let us be reminded how much our Lord Jesus sacrificed for us on that day.

On the day our Lord Jesus was crucified, it was a very hot day.  As he suffered in the heat assuredly he needed a drink of water; however, “They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink” (Matthew 27:34).

  In our lifetime where we will have days in the wilderness of struggles, setbacks and stresses we must keep our heads up knowing that GOD has given us a SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST(John 3:16-18). Our Lord JESUS CHRIST says: “[THE WORLD CANNOT HATE YOU; BUT ME IT HATETH], because I [TESTIFY OF IT, THAT THE WORKS THEREOF ARE EVIL]” (John 7:7). “[IF THE WORLD HATE YOU, YE KNOW THAT IT HATED ME BEFORE IT HATED YOU]” (John 15:18). “He that [HATETH ME HATETH MY FATHER ALSO]” (John 15:23). “He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it” (John 8:44). “He that loveth his life shall lose it; and [HE THAT HATETH HIS LIFE IN THIS WORLD SHALL KEEP IT UNTO LIFE ETERNAL]. If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be” (Matthew 12:24-26). “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. [IN TH...

“[I WILL PRAISE THEE; FOR I AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE]: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well” (Psalm 139:14).   “Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness” (Psalm 107:8-9). “For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods. Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places” (Psalm 135:5-6). “Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen.

GOD has a place of REST FOREVER and ONLY JESUS knows the WAY to the place of REST FOREVER with GOD in the WORLD WITHOUT END in New HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH (Isaiah 65;17-18) (John 3:16, 14:6) (Revelation 21:1-5).

“[FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD MEN HAVE NOT HEARD, NOR PERCEIVED BY THE EAR, NEITHER HATH THE EYE SEEN], O God, beside thee, what [HE HATH PREPARED FOR HIM THAT WAITETH FOR HIM]” (Isaiah 64:4). “THE LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: [THE WORLD ALSO IS STABLISHED, THAT IT CANNOT BE MOVED].Thy throne is [ESTABLISHED OF OLD: THOU ART FROM EVERLASTING]” (Psalm 93:1-2). “For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation. [THIS IS MY REST FOR EVER]: here will I dwell; for I have desired it” (Psalms 132:13-14). DO NOT be overcome by the current and the SOON COMING events when life will get worst in this world. But, OVERCOME them with JESUS CHRIST! JESUS says: “[COME UNTO ME, ALL YE THAT LABOUR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST]. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and [YE SHALL FIND REST UNTO YOUR SOULS]. For my yoke is easy, and ...
