Betrayed…

 Betrayed…

When the word “ betrayed” comes to mind, I immediately think of Judas and Jesus, but there are so many more stories of betrayal in the Bible…David and Bathsheba, Joseph and his brothers, Daniel and the other leaders at the time,  Esther for instance….

David and Bathsheba lost their child, but God forgave and blessed him exceedingly….Joseph forgave his brothers with “ 

God used it for good”….the other leaders with Daniel lost their lives…Esther’s uncle was honored while his accuser died… different endings of betrayals….

Jesus betrayal was foretold, it had to happen…for the consequences were for all mankind…Jesus died on the cross for all..to the ends of the earth…so that he could show his power over a horrible death…God was betrayed, but it was forgiveness…Jesus rose that we might have life….

1 Peter 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. 

Thank YOU….

“If there is anyone who can relate to us about betrayal, it is God. Despite all who betrayed Him, He still found it in his heart to help, forgive, and rebuild relationships. Through scripture, we can find the strength to do the same. Use these Bible verses to help you overcome the pain of betrayal and encouragement to forgive.”
