After He was found in [terms of His] outward appearance as a man [for a divinely-appointed time], He humbled Himself [still further] by becoming obedient [to the Father] to the point of death, even death on a cross.
PHILIPPIANS 2:8 AMP
Glory and honour be unto God for this beautiful day. Hallelujah to the King of Kings!
The Son of God became a ransom for us. He sacrificed His life for us so that we might live. Thanks be to God for this great sacrifice, Jesus became obedient all the way to Death on the Cross so that we may have eternal life. He made himself of no reputation so He could save us. Jesus came as a bond servant to take our place.
We should always remember that our Lord Jesus Christ had to go through this suffering to make room for us to be saved.
The scripture says that He humbled Himself even unto death, it is not an easy thing, let us think about a little sacrifice we may have made for someone. Can it be compared to this great sacrifice of leaving His mighty throne and Glory and coming to die a shameful death on the cross?
Father we say a very big thank you for giving us your only begotten son. Thank you Jesus Christ for being obedient to die to save us. May these significant landmarks propel us to live completely for Christ. Amen.
