What He Gave
“Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree” (1 Peter 2:24).
“He hath poured out His soul unto death: and He was numbered with the transgressors; and He bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors” (Isaiah 53:12).
“Father, into Thy hands I commend My spirit: and having said thus, He gave up the ghost” (Luke 23:46).
What did the Lord Jesus give on our behalf? The Lord Jesus gave Himself for us in nothing less than His body, His soul and His spirit. He suffered as no one else has ever suffered, in all three aspects of His being, all at once, and for all time.
The realization of this should, and will, fill our hearts with praise and worship for Him today.
Worship Him for who He is,
Praise Him for the work;
Thank Him for the blessing given,
Through that finished work.
