Exo 34:14 (for you shall worship no other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God)......
......
Isa 42:8 I am the LORD; that is my name; my glory I give to no other, nor my praise to carved idols.
.......
Act 4:12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."

Thank you LORD, Redeemer, King, for this great Salvation.
Thank you that you never stop your Kindness or your Love or your intention to Save us to the uttermost.
Bless those who have cried to you today and save the perishing who know not your Name.
Bring them one who will tell them of your Saving Love and finished Work.
I ask this with Hope and Joy,
In the Matchless Name of JESUS.

Heb 7:25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

Man of Sorrows! what a name
For the Son of God, Who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Guilty, vile, and helpless we;
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
“Full atonement!” can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Lifted up was He to die;
“It is finished!” was His cry;
Now in Heav’n exalted high.
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew His song we’ll sing:
Hallelujah! What a Savior!

You stand there, Lord, looking small, forlorn
Before the haughty Roman judge,
Beneath the twisted crown of thorn
Bloody and beaten, Your face a smudge

Ecce Homo!

Looking at the gathered crowd
As You lift your bloodied head
You see them crying, hungry, loud
longing to see You dead.

Ecce Homo!

No self-pity touches you there,
Standing beaten, carrier of sin,
But love and grief at what you bear,
To save their souls within.

Ecce Homo!

What depth of care under bloody crown
Shows softly in your eyes,
Not cry or blow or anger's frown
Can hide the love that within you lies.

Ecce Homo!

Lord, I am not worthy to meet your eyes,
The love that lingers there for me
Have I not, like Peter, told my lies,
Then longed to hide where you could not see?

Ecce Homo!

Or like Judas, have I not betrayed you?
Reached out my hand for some fool's gold
In the dark of my heart, by what I chose to do,
With love grown empty, life grown cold.

Ecce Homo!

And yet here you stand with loving heart
pouring yourself out like a drink offering,
letting the cup be drained, your death the start
of an undeserved rebirth, a unexpected spring.

Ecce Homo!

Help me to know the truth you show,
The ways of love deeper than the sea,
God's gift of life that I might grow
Into the child you want me to be.

Ecce Homo!

I just love how He, the Living God, speaks the same word to all of us His Children simultaneously, even while it remains very personal! If you have the time, or any interest, go read my morning meditations which I posted to my homepage (before reading any of my pings on FR!) I even thought of pinging you when I pinged others to it on another thread, but - silly me! - opted not to. I see now it is perfectly appropriate to invite you to peruse my thoughts: you already have them!
