Luke 23 ~ Praying God's Word

Please read Luke 23.

Meditate on verse 21.

But they kept on calling out, saying,

 “Crucify, crucify Him!”

How do you respond to Jesus? Are you like the people in Luke 23:21? Does your lifestyle betray Jesus and treat Him as if you wish He were dead?

Or are you like those in Galatians 5:24? “Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.”

Have you crucified your sinful passions and desires? Do you live in Christ?

Luke 23 recorded what Christ offered to all mankind and the various ways people responded to Him. The gracious Savior said, “Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing” (v. 34). Some responded by mocking, sneering, and hurling abuse. Others responded by beating their breasts, praising God, and asking Jesus to remember them.

What is your response to the forgiveness of Christ?

Pray Luke 23:34, 42, and 47 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“Father, thank You for Your undeserved forgiveness. 

Remember _______ and me in Your Kingdom

May we live to praise You. 

In Your name, Jesus~”
