Then, taking the twelve aside, He said to them, ‘Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything will be finished that was written by the prophets about the Son of Man.’
Luke 18:31
This is a foretaste of the completion that Jesus would Himself announce on the cross not long after. He was headed to do the work laid before Him and He knew it would be finished. There was no question in His mind as to what He was about to do. He would fulfill what He had directed the prophets to write about Him so many years before.
Heavenly Father, thank You! Christ is the richest gift ever to be given, or that ever could be given. We are in awe of Your plan for our redemption. Nothing could make us worthy of it, though by it wea are given worth in Your grace. We will praise You forever! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
