*DAILY DEW 26/FEBRUARY/2025* *NICODEMUS!* _Key Bible Text:_ *"And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight."* (John 19: 39 (KJV)) _Bible Insight_ Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish ruling council, had previously come to Jesus at night, seeking answers about His teachings (John 3:1-21). Now, he boldly comes forward to show his respect and devotion to Jesus, even in death. By bringing a large quantity of expensive spices, Nicodemus demonstrates his love and appreciation for Jesus, and helps to prepare His body for burial. This verse highlights the transformation that had taken place in Nicodemus's life. Initially, he had come to Jesus in secret, afraid of being ostracized by his peers. However, as he grew in his understanding of Jesus' teachings, he became more confident in his faith, and eventually, he was willing to publicly identify himself with Jesus, even in the face of potential ridicule or persecution. The lesson from this verse is that true faith requires boldness and courage. As followers of Jesus, we are called to be willing to stand up for our beliefs, even if it means facing opposition or criticism. Nicodemus's example encourages us to be bold in our witness, and to demonstrate our love and devotion to Jesus, both in life and in death. _MEDITATION:_ *Like Peter, Nicodemus outgrew cowardice.
