John 19:28  After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, “I am thirsty.” On this Good Friday we are reminded of God’s extravagant love for us. When Jesus cried “I Thirst” from the Cross, He wasn’t declaring His physical thirst; instead, He was revealing the true nature […]

Every believer is in Christ but every believer does not abide in Christ. To restfully and radically surrender to His life and to draw from His life and power to live the Christian life, is to abide in Him. He said that He has overcome the world; and your life is hidden with Christ (the

Jn.14:1-3, “Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. 3 If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and

Col. 3:1-4, Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. 3 For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When

Jn.19:28, Jesus knew that His mission was accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said: “I am thirsty.” 30When He had sipped the sour wine He said, “It is finished, My bride!” 34But one of the soldiers took a spear and pierced Jesus’ side, and blood and water gushed out! When Jesus said “It is

2Cor.4:6 , For God, who said, “Light shall shine out of darkness,” is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. Ex.33:18 Then Moses said, “I pray You, show me Your glory!” 19 And He said, “I Myself will make all

Mark 15:37 And Jesus uttered a loud cry, and breathed His last. 38 And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 39 When the centurion, who was standing right in front of Him, saw the way He breathed His last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of

Heb.12 :1-3, Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the
