Day 70 Bible Reading: Numbers 15-16, Mark 15, Psalm 54 and Proverb 11:5-6
The time had come and the Magi came looking and asking for the King of the Jews. This stirred the city of Jerusalem and frightened King Herod. Then, thirty years later, Pilate did not recognize Jesus as a king and gave Him over to the maddening crowd. The soldiers struck him, spit on him, mocked him, stripped him, and then crucified him on a cross. Today, we worship this same Jesus as King of kings, and Lord of lords. Angels bow before Him and cry, “Holy, Holy, Holy!” One day, every knee shall bow and every tongue confess, that “He is Lord of all.” He is exalted above all things on earth and heaven above. What a mighty God, He is! Let us acknowledge Him as King and honour Him for He is worthy of praise and worship.
"And they began to salute him, 'Hail, King of the Jews!' And they were striking his head with a reed and spitting on him and kneeling down in homage to him. And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him. And they led him out to crucify him." – Mark 15:18-20 (English Standard Version)
"Glory to the King of kings. I worship You King Jesus and confess that You are Lord of all. I magnify Your Holy name and praise You. Be the Lord of my life and Let Your Will be done. Amen."
