Matthew 26:24 AMP
[24] The Son of Man is to go [to the cross], just as it is written [in Scripture] of Him; but woe (judgment is coming) to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had never been born.”
Hallelujah and Glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it. The 4th day of the Holy Week!
In today’s scripture Jesus speaks to His disciples about His betrayal when they were having the last Passover meal. The disciples were disturbed at that announcement and started questioning one after the other whether they were the one being referred to.
Jesus still confirmed that one of them who had dipped his hand into the bowl to eat with him was going to betray him. Jesus did add that woe to the one who betrays him and it would have been better if that person had not been born. We know how Judas Iscariot died a shameful death by hanging himself on a tree.
Do we also betray Jesus in our time by not obeying His commandments and living by His Word? Are we betraying Jesus by living our lives as if His death and resurrection meant nothing to us?
May the Lord help us to live completely for Jesus Christ so that we don’t betray Him with our haphazard way of life. May the death of Jesus Christ be our source of eternal life in Jesus Mighty name.
