Judges 5, Isaiah 63, Luke 4:1-13, 1 Timothy 2:8-15, Psalm 22: Do you remember some of Jesus’ last words from the cross? They come from Psalm 22.
Psalm 22:1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
If you did not know this Psalm you would think that Jesus felt forsaken by His Father in Heaven, but that is not at all the case. God had not left Jesus. He was there with with His Son the entire time. Yes there was a point where it was too much to look upon His sinless Son taking on all of our sin, but God was still right there. As Jesus spoke these words He was pointing us back to this Psalm. Keep in mind it was written much before Jesus’ lifetime and crucifixion was not even a form of punishment before the Romans used it in Jesus’ time. So when these words were written the Psalmist had no idea what he was penning, but the Father did.
Psalm 22:11 “Be not far from me,
for trouble is near,
and there is none to help.
12 Many bulls encompass me;
strong bulls of Bashan surround me;
13 they open wide their mouths at me,
like a ravening and roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water,
and all my bones are out of joint;
my heart is like wax;
it is melted within my breast;
15 my strength is dried up like a potsherd,
and my tongue sticks to my jaws;
you lay me in the dust of death.
16 For dogs encompass me;
a company of evildoers encircles me;
they have pierced my hands and feet—
17 I can count all my bones—
they stare and gloat over me;
18 they divide my garments among them,
and for my clothing they cast lots.
19 But you, O Lord, do not be far off!
O you my help, come quickly to my aid!”

Even as I read this over again I am just so grateful to Jesus for going through this and paying for my sin so that I can live forever with You. Thankful for God’s amazing grace!
