THE TRUE MEANING AND PURPOSE OF MYRRH

Psalm 45:8 New King James Version
8 All Your garments are scented with myrrh and aloes and cassia,
Out of the ivory palaces, by which they have made You glad.

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!!

Of all the ironies, as we see in this passage of scripture, each of these gifts had a significant meaning and value and I believe God wanted us to know that. Gold in particular represents royalty. It was acknowledging Jesus’ as the king of kings. Frankincense represented divinity. It purposely highlighted Jesus’ divine nature and His role as our high priest. So now we come to the last gift, which is myrrh. Do you know what the significance is of that particular perfume? Well, in case you didn't know, myrrh had a very important purpose back in biblical times, because it was a type of embalming fluid/ointment that was used to prepare dead bodies with.
I pondered the meaning behind these gifts, especially the gift of murder, but also some of the things that I was reading in this morning's scripture, and to say I was blown away by what God showed me, would be an understatement. I was especially in deep flood the questions from this morning’s devotional, I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to you through them as well.

How do you feel when you ponder the truth that Jesus was born to die for you?

Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from this passage of scripture, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you causes you to think about the significance not just behind these gifts, but what it means for Jesus to have given his life for you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn the true purpose and meaning of myrrh! 😊

So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it gets you to deeply thinking about what Jesus did for you, and that you'll want to live your life in gratitude over it.

How does His resurrection inspire you?

I pray tonight my friends, that as you think about this day of Epiphany, as you think about these wise men, and the joy that they had in finding the true king of kings, and Lord of Lords, the resurrected savior, and that you take that joy and boldly live it out, not just today but every day. Live out the last words of the song, “We Three Kings of Orient Are”, when you say “Alleluia, Alleluia,/sounds through the earth and skies.” Most of all, I pray that you are not afraid to let the Holy Spirit help you live your life in gratitude every day, for Jesus giving his life for you, and that you share that good news with others.
UNTIL SUNDAY:

HAVE A RESTFUL, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
