Thursday, March 25

[Christ] was favorably heard for his godly fear.—Heb. 5:7.

 

 

On the yearly Day of Atonement, the high priest had to burn the incense before he could offer up the sacrifices. In that way, he made sure that he would have God’s approval when offering up the sacrifices. While on earth, Jesus had to do something important—something more important than providing salvation for mankind—before he could offer up his life in sacrifice. What was that? By living a life of integrity and loyalty, Jesus had to prepare the way for Jehovah to accept his sacrifice. In that way, Jesus would prove that doing things Jehovah’s way is the right way to live. Jesus would vindicate his Father’s sovereignty, or way of ruling. Throughout his earthly life, Jesus maintained perfect obedience to Jehovah’s righteous standards. No temptation or trial could weaken his desire to defend his Father’s way of ruling.—Phil. 2:8. w19.11 21 ¶6-7

 

 

Memorial Bible reading: (Daytime events: Nisan 11) Luke 20:1-47

[Sister Twister]

We can try to imitate Jesus by doing our best to live a life of I loyalty to Jehovah , we can't do this in our own strength and need to ask Jehovah in preyer to help us to keep integrity , as we see even Jesus a perfect man had to pray fervently to keep his integrity . his integrity to Jehovah and his ability to do his will and give his life as a sacrifice was his main focus in life , he didn't settle in this world or try to make a place for himself , he knew what his life on earth needed to accomplish and kept faithful to that goal.

[Vinnie]

Even though we are imperfect and make mistakes on purpose, or through bad judgement, we can still be heard by God. When we fall, we get up and keep trying hard to follow Christ's example and we look up to the heavens and say in our hearts," I want to do things your way, please help me." Jehovah himself encourages us not to give up in doing what is fine, for we shall reap is we don't tire out.

Jesus gave his life by being obedient to Jehovah. He desires to defend his Father's way of ruling, the most important issue - the vindication of Jehovah's sovereignty.
