Once again we meditate on an Old Testament passage that is all about Jesus Christ. When we read "
5
The Lord God has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious; I turned not backward.
6
I gave my back to those who strike, and my cheeks to those who pull out the beard; I hid not my face from disgrace and spitting.
7
But the Lord God helps me; therefore I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame."
We realize that Christ humbled Himself in so many ways, even giving His cheeks to His tormentors. Chad meditates on this and the meaning of "Word of the Father".
Lynn sings "Step by Step".

Lyrics to "Step by Step"
Though I walk through darkness
And my eyes they cannot see
Your voice has been my light.
With every step guiding me
Word of the Father
You speak to me
You offered Yourself
For Your enemies
Morning by morning
Awaken me I pray
Not by my own light
And not in my own way
Lord you will help me
With every step, every hour
Day by day
With every step, every hour
Day by day
You are the Word
You didn't hide Your face
From hate and disgrace
You brought light to the darkness
To the whole human race
Word of the Father
You speak to me
You offered Yourself
For Your enemies
Morning by morning
Awaken me I pray
Not by my own light
And not in my own way
Lord you will help me
With every step, every hour
Day by day
With every step, every hour
Day by day
You are the Word
You gave Your back to those who strike, and Your cheeks to those who pulled out Your beard; You did not hide Your face
You did not hide Your face from all of this disgrace
You sustain me and remain with a word
All who are weary
And Your sacrifice was not in vain
You carried all our shame
I hope in Your name
The name without shame
The mighty name of Jesus
You are the Word
