Jesus Didn’t Tap

“Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very natureGod, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very natureof a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself and became obedient to death– even death on a cross!”

Philippians 2:5-8

When Jesus stepped inside the cage of life to take on the cross, it was not human legs that kicked him.  It was not human hands that clenched his arm during the arm bar of adversity.  It was not a human fist that knocked him to the mat for our sins.  It was not a human that kept him inside the triangle choke of suffering.  It was not the fighter’s sent by Satan to tap him out that beat him.

God gave him strength while on his back being pounded in the face by the elbows of sin. Those same hands that formed the universe. Those same hands that held you and me before the foundation of the world.

Take a jog out to the mountain of the skull. Out to the cross where, with holy blood, the hand that placed you on the planet wrote the promise, “God would give up his only Son before he’d Tap Out on you.  Truly, Jesus Didn’t Tap! – Are you tapping out on him?

Remember, it is called a fight for a reason. However, we fight from victory not for victory.  Keep Fighting!
