"The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity" (Psalm 94:11). "Then saith Pilate unto Him... Knowest Thou not that I have power to crucify Thee, and have power to release Thee? Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against Me, except it were given thee from above... Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst... When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, He said, It is finished" (John 19:10-30).
How
blindly does humanity
Discount
the knowledge of our Lord!
The
thoughts of man are vanity
When
truth is willfully ignored.
When
Pilate spoke with arrogance,
He
did not know that Jesus knew
His
vain and willful ignorance
So
evident from heaven's view.
When
Jesus had accomplished all,
He
knew one prophecy remained:
He
had refused the bitter gall,
But
vinegar was yet ordained.
O
Lord, our hearts are surely thrilled
To
hear Your voice victorious,
When
You knew all had been fulfilled,
Say
"It is finished!" then for us!
