The Book Of Matthew Chapters 27 and 28 The Crusifixion

 I have to be honest — I’ve been procrastinating on these last two chapters of Matthew. My spirit gets uneasy, because when I read them I try to slow down and hear every voice, every moment. What hits me the hardest is the portion about Yahushua’s crucifixion and the mocking by the people and the soldiers. I’ve seen many movies portray this part, and even though Scripture isn’t nearly as graphic as what it must have truly looked like, still the scenes from “Jesus of Nazareth” from the 70s come back to me.

In my own life, on this spiritual walk, I’ve faced persecution many times — though none of it compares to what Yahushua endured. Even recently, I’ve been persecuted again. But still, it’s nothing like His suffering. Father’s will be done. This is why we go through trials: because the servant is not above the Master. When I read these chapters and then look at my own struggles, it reminds me that enduring hardship is part of staying on this path, no matter how unfair or painful it feels. Father sees. He knows. Even the disciples faced persecution and death, and still today many around the world suffer for their faith.

In a way, I’m glad these chapters aren’t more descriptive — I would be crying nonstop. And while the world gets busy preparing for Christmas 🎄, I wonder how many are actually opening Scripture with a heart posture of understanding that the servant is not above the Master. How many realize the world has become so dark that you’re now “guilty until proven innocent,” and almost everything feels backwards?

As much as I dislike persecution, it reassures me that I’m on the right path. Praise be to Abba Yahuah 🙌 — He is faithful. Yahushua has already gone ahead to make a way for those who follow Him.

Here’s my encouragement to you: Don’t give up on Yahushua. The end of a matter is better than its beginning. One day you’ll realize you’ve been led along the narrow path because you are of heaven — and you’ll be Home soon. I don’t believe in a rapture, but I do believe I will enter heaven if I continue walking this path, never giving up, and trusting Father’s will above all.

Much 

love,

Ruth
