DAY 16

Chasing Jesus - Day 16

Day 16 Scripture:
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth. By oppression and judgement he was taken away; and as for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living, stricken for the transgression of my people? And they made his grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.
Isaiah 53:7-9

Prayer Prompt: Redeem Our Words
He was mocked, beaten and spit on. He struggled to breath from being beaten. Yet did not open his mouth, for he had a mission. A mission to save you and me, to give us a chance to speak relationally to His Father in Heaven. Praise him for his faithfulness. That while he had the power to spare himself unimaginable suffering, he let himself be led to the cross in your place. May our words be redeemed by the silence of Jesus.
