*CONSCIOUS EFFORT TO FULFILL SCRIPTURE!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst."* (John 19: 28 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Jesus' statement "I thirst" may seem like a simple physical request, but it holds profound theological significance. By expressing His physical need, Jesus demonstrated His humanity and vulnerability. At the same time, this statement also underscored Jesus' deliberate and voluntary sacrifice on the cross. He was not just a victim of circumstance, but the willing Lamb of God, who gave Himself up for the sins of humanity.
This verse also highlights Jesus' conscious effort to fulfill Scripture. By saying "I thirst," Jesus alluded to Psalm 22:15, which prophesied that the Messiah would experience extreme thirst during His crucifixion. This detail reinforces the idea that Jesus' death was a meticulously planned and executed event, orchestrated by God Himself to accomplish humanity's redemption.
The lesson from this verse is that even in the midst of extreme suffering and vulnerability, Jesus remained focused on fulfilling His divine mission. His statement "I thirst" serves as a poignant reminder of His humanity and His willingness to endure the ultimate sacrifice for our sake. As followers of Jesus, we are called to emulate His selfless example, putting the needs of others before our own, and trusting in God's sovereign plan, even in the midst of adversity.
