*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))

*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.

*DAILY DEW 20/FEBRUARY/2025*
*BEHOLD THE MAN!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find... *DAILY DEW 20/FEBRUARY/2025*
*BEHOLD THE MAN!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man! When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him."* (John 19: 5-6 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Jesus' appearance before Pilate and the crowd is a poignant moment in the Passion narrative. The crown of thorns and purple robe, symbols of mockery and ridicule, contrast starkly with Jesus' true identity as the King of kings. Pilate's declaration, "Behold the man!" (Ecce homo!), is a haunting invitation to gaze upon the battered and bruised Jesus, highlighting the shocking disparity between His divine nature and His humiliating circumstances.
The crowd's response, however, is a chilling reminder of human depravity. Despite Pilate's declaration of Jesus' innocence, the chief priests and officers cry out for His crucifixion. Their bloodlust and determination to eliminate Jesus demonstrate the depths of human sin and rebellion against God. This episode serves as a stark warning about the dangers of unchecked ambition, jealousy, and hatred.
The lesson from this passage is that true justice and righteousness are often obscured by human sin and corruption. Pilate's attempt to absolve himself of responsibility by declaring Jesus innocent ultimately proves futile, as the crowd's clamor for crucifixion prevails. This episode highlights the need for divine intervention and redemption, as human systems and institutions are inherently flawed and prone to injustice.
_MEDITATION:_
*"The praises of the crowd is soon buried in their passionate rejection & denouncement. Take the crowd's cheer to heart at your own peril. The cancel culture didn't start today & won't end until the end of time"*

*EXCEPT FROM ABOVE!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin."* (John 19: 11 (KJV))

*EXCEPT FROM ABOVE!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin."* (John 19: 11 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Jesus' response to Pilate's authority is a profound statement about the nature of power and responsibility. By acknowledging that Pilate's power comes from above, Jesus underscores the sovereignty of God over all human affairs. This perspective recognizes that even the most seemingly powerful individuals, like Pilate, are ultimately subject to God's authority and providence.
Jesus' statement also highlights the accountability of those who abuse their power or authority. By saying that the one who delivered Him to Pilate (Caiaphas, the high priest) has the greater sin, Jesus emphasizes the gravity of Caiaphas' actions. This serves as a warning to those who would misuse their power or position to harm others, particularly those who are innocent or vulnerable.
The lesson from this verse is that true power and authority come from God, and those who wield power must acknowledge and respect this divine sovereignty. Furthermore, this passage emphasizes the importance of accountability and the consequences of abusing power or authority.
_MEDITATION:_
*As followers of Jesus, we must recognize the limits of human power and authority, and instead, look to God as the ultimate source of wisdom, guidance, and strength.*

*DAILY DEW 22/FEBRUARY/2025*
*THAT THE SCRIPTURE MIGHT BE FULFILLED!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did."* (John... *DAILY DEW 22/FEBRUARY/2025*
*THAT THE SCRIPTURE MIGHT BE FULFILLED!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did."* (John 19: 24 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
The soldiers' decision to cast lots for Jesus' garment rather than tear it apart may seem like a minor detail, but it holds significant theological importance. By doing so, they unwittingly fulfilled Psalm 22:18, which prophesied that Jesus' clothes would be divided among His executioners. This event demonstrates the meticulous fulfillment of Scripture, underscoring the divine sovereignty and providence that governed the events surrounding Jesus' crucifixion.
This verse also highlights the intricate web of prophecy and fulfillment that underlies the narrative of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. The fact that the soldiers' actions, though seemingly random and driven by chance, actually fulfilled an ancient prophecy underscores the idea that God is working out His purposes, even through the actions of those who may not acknowledge or understand Him.
The lesson from this verse is that God's sovereignty and providence are at work in every detail of our lives, even when we may not recognize or acknowledge it. This passage encourages us to trust in the meticulous care and guidance of God, who is working out His purposes in and through us, often in ways we may not fully understand.
_MEDITATION:_
*It is a terrible thing to be part of the fulfilment of scriptures in a negative way. Be sure to fulfill God's words positively by obeying the teachings of scripture.*

*WOMAN, BEHOLD THY SON!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home."* (John 19: 26 - 27 (KJV))... *DAILY DEW 23/FEBRUARY/2025*
*WOMAN, BEHOLD THY SON!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home."* (John 19: 26 - 27 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Jesus' final act of love and care before His death on the cross was to ensure the well-being of His mother, Mary. By entrusting her to the care of the beloved disciple, John, Jesus demonstrated His deep concern for those He loved. This act of provision and responsibility highlights Jesus' character as a loving and selfless Son.
This passage also underscores the importance of family and community in the life of a believer. Jesus' instruction to John to care for Mary as his own mother emphasizes the value of adopting and caring for one another as members of God's family. This principle is echoed in Galatians 6:10, where believers are encouraged to "do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers."
The lesson from this verse is that our love and care for one another should extend beyond our biological families to include our spiritual family. As followers of Jesus, we are called to demonstrate His love and compassion by caring for one another, especially those who are vulnerable or in need. By doing so, we reflect the character of Christ and fulfill our responsibility as members of God's family.

_Key Bible Text:_
*"After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst."* (John 19: 28 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Jesus' statement "I thirst" may seem like a simple physical request, but it holds profound theological significance. By expressing His physical need, Jesus demonstrated His humanity and vulnerability. At the same time, this statement also underscored Jesus' deliberate and voluntary sacrifice on the cross. He was not just a victim of circumstance, but the willing Lamb of God, who gave Himself up for the sins of humanity.
This verse also highlights Jesus' conscious effort to fulfill Scripture. By saying "I thirst," Jesus alluded to Psalm 22:15, which prophesied that the Messiah would experience extreme thirst during His crucifixion. This detail reinforces the idea that Jesus' death was a meticulously planned and executed event, orchestrated by God Himself to accomplish humanity's redemption.
The lesson from this verse is that even in the midst of extreme suffering and vulnerability, Jesus remained focused on fulfilling His divine mission. His statement "I thirst" serves as a poignant reminder of His humanity and His willingness to endure the ultimate sacrifice for our sake. As followers of Jesus, we are called to emulate His selfless example, putting the needs of others before our own, and trusting in God's sovereign plan, even in the midst of adversity.

*DO IT AFRAID!*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus."* (John 19: 38 (KJV))

_Key Bible Text:_
*"And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus."* (John 19: 38 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Joseph of Arimathaea's actions demonstrate a remarkable display of courage and devotion to Jesus. Despite being a secret disciple, Joseph risked his reputation and safety by openly asking Pilate for Jesus' body. This bold move highlights the transformative power of Jesus' teachings and the loyalty they inspired in His followers. Joseph's bravery serves as a testament to the enduring impact of Jesus' message.
This verse also underscores the theme of redemption and restoration. By taking Jesus' body and preparing it for burial, Joseph ensured that Jesus received a dignified and respectful treatment, even in death. This act of kindness and compassion foreshadows the ultimate redemption and restoration that Jesus would accomplish through His resurrection.
The lesson from this verse is that faithfulness and loyalty to Jesus often require courage and risk-taking. Joseph's example encourages us to be bold in our witness and to stand up for what we believe in, even if it means facing opposition or ridicule. As followers of Jesus, we are called to demonstrate our devotion to Him through tangible acts of love and service, just as Joseph did.

*"And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus."* (John 19: 38 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Joseph of Arimathaea's actions demonstrate a remarkable display of courage and devotion to Jesus. Despite being a secret disciple, Joseph risked his reputation and safety by openly asking Pilate for Jesus' body. This bold move highlights the transformative power of Jesus' teachings and the loyalty they inspired in His followers. Joseph's bravery serves as a testament to the enduring impact of Jesus' message.
This verse also underscores the theme of redemption and restoration. By taking Jesus' body and preparing it for burial, Joseph ensured that Jesus received a dignified and respectful treatment, even in death. This act of kindness and compassion foreshadows the ultimate redemption and restoration that Jesus would accomplish through His resurrection.
The lesson from this verse is that faithfulness and loyalty to Jesus often require courage and risk-taking. Joseph's example encourages us to be bold in our witness and to stand up for what we believe in, even if it means facing opposition or ridicule. As followers of Jesus, we are called to demonstrate our devotion to Him through tangible acts of love and service, just as Joseph did.

*TO THIS END WAS I BORN*
_Key Bible Text:_

*TO THIS END WAS I BORN*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice."* (John 18: 37 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Pilate's question, "Art thou a king then?" (John 18:37), is a pivotal moment in the conversation between Jesus and Pilate. Jesus' response is characteristic of His humility and willingness to clarify His mission. He says, "Thou sayest that I am a king" (John 18:37), acknowledging Pilate's statement while also redefining what it means to be a king.
Jesus then explains the purpose of His birth and mission: "To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth" (John 18:37). This statement highlights Jesus' role as a witness to the truth, which is a central theme in the Gospel of John. Jesus is not just a king in the classical sense, but a king who reigns through truth and testimony.
The phrase "Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice" (John 18:37) is a profound statement about the nature of truth and discipleship. Jesus is saying that those who are committed to the truth will recognize and respond to His voice. This is a call to discernment and obedience, emphasizing the importance of listening to and following Jesus' teachings.
The lesson from this verse is that true leadership and authority are not about power or prestige, but about testifying to the truth. As followers of Jesus, we are called to bear witness to the truth and to listen to His voice. By doing so, we can experience the freedom and transformation that come from embracing the truth, and we can become instruments of truth and light in a world that desperately needs it.

*STILL REJECTING JESUS✨*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber."* (John 18: 39-40 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Pilate,... *DAILY DEW 19/FEBRUARY/2025*
*STILL REJECTING JESUS✨*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber."* (John 18: 39-40 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Pilate, in an attempt to appease the crowd, offers to release a prisoner of their choice, as was the custom during the Passover (John 18:39). He presents Jesus, the "King of the Jews," as the potential candidate for release. However, the crowd rejects Jesus, crying out for the release of Barabbas instead.
The choice between Jesus and Barabbas is significant. Barabbas was a robber, a man who had broken the law and deserved punishment. In contrast, Jesus was the innocent Son of God, who had done no wrong. The crowd's preference for Barabbas over Jesus highlights their spiritual blindness and their desire for a leader who would satisfy their earthly ambitions.
The lesson from this verse is that humanity often chooses the wrong path, even when faced with the truth. The crowd's rejection of Jesus represents the universal human tendency to reject God's offer of salvation and instead choose our own way. This passage serves as a reminder of the importance of seeking God's wisdom and guidance, rather than relying on our own limited understanding.
Furthermore, the exchange between Jesus and Barabbas foreshadows the greater exchange that would take place on the cross. Jesus, the innocent one, would take the place of Barabbas, the guilty one, and bear the punishment for humanity's sins. This act of substitutionary atonement would demonstrate God's love and mercy towards humanity, offering us forgiveness and redemption through faith in Jesus Christ.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Ephesians 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."*
*God's forgiveness is NOW based on Christ's atoning death. See that you don't miss it for anything. Let's learn from those rejected Jesus when they had the opportunity to choose him.*

*A KINGDOM NOT OF THIS WORLD*
_Key Bible Text:_

*A KINGDOM NOT OF THIS WORLD*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence."* (John 18: 36 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
In John 18:36, Jesus is responding to Pontius Pilate's question, "Art thou a king then?" (John 18:37). Jesus' answer is profound: "My kingdom is not of this world." This statement highlights the nature of Jesus' kingdom, which is not a physical or earthly realm, but a spiritual one.
Jesus explains that if His kingdom were of this world, His servants would fight to prevent His arrest and delivery to the Jews. However, Jesus' kingdom operates on different principles. His servants do not rely on violence or human strength to achieve their goals. Instead, they trust in the power of God and the wisdom of His plan.
The lesson from this verse is that, as followers of Jesus, we must not confuse God's kingdom with the kingdoms of this world. We must not rely on human strength, wealth, or power to achieve our goals. Instead, we must trust in God's sovereignty and provision, and seek to advance His kingdom through humble service, love, and obedience. By doing so, we can experience the joy and peace that come from being part of God's eternal kingdom.

_Key Bible Text:_
*"Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way."* (John 18: 8 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
In John 18:8, Jesus responds to the temple guards and Roman soldiers who have come to arrest Him. He reiterates His earlier statement, "I am he" (John 18:5), affirming His identity as the Messiah. By doing so, Jesus takes responsibility for His actions and acknowledges that He is the one they seek.
Jesus' next statement is remarkable: "If therefore ye seek me, let these go their way" (John 18:8). He asks the guards and soldiers to release His disciples, demonstrating His concern for their well-being and safety. This request also highlights Jesus' willingness to sacrifice Himself for the sake of others, foreshadowing His ultimate sacrifice on the cross.
The lesson from this verse is that Jesus prioritizes the needs of others, even in the face of adversity. He shows selfless love and concern for His disciples, asking that they be spared from harm. As followers of Jesus, we are called to emulate this selfless love and prioritize the needs of others, just as Jesus did. By doing so, we demonstrate our commitment to His teachings and reflect His character in our lives.

*I AM*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them. As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground."* (John 18: 5-6 (KJV))

*I AM*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them. As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground."* (John 18: 5-6 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
The scene in John 18:5-6 is a dramatic and pivotal moment in the narrative of Jesus' arrest.
When the temple guards and Roman soldiers ask Jesus to identify Himself, He responds with a simple yet profound statement: "I am he" (Greek: "Ego eimi"). This phrase is more than just a casual affirmation; it is a declaration of Jesus' divine identity, echoing the name of God revealed to Moses in Exodus 3:14.
The response of the guards and soldiers is telling. As soon as Jesus utters these words, they "went backward, and fell to the ground" (John 18:6). This reaction suggests that Jesus' statement was not just a claim to human identity but a manifestation of His divine power and authority. The guards and soldiers, though armed and intent on arresting Jesus, are suddenly overwhelmed by the weight of His presence.
The lesson from this verse is that Jesus' identity and authority are not to be underestimated. When He declares Himself to be the "I Am," He is asserting His divinity and sovereignty over all creation.
This scene serves as a reminder of Jesus' power and majesty, and it challenges us to respond to Him with reverence, worship, and obedience. As we reflect on this passage, may we be awed by the majesty of Jesus and may our hearts be drawn to worship Him as the one true God.
