Holy Week Scripture Reading Matthew 26:1-16 ESV

📖 Matthew 26:1–16 | The Plot, the Anointing, and the Betrayal

Hey Sis 🎙️
Welcome to Day 3 of our Holy Week scripture reading from the devotional series, "Holy Week. Pause. Ponder. Pray." by Thistlebend Ministries.

Today’s reading comes from Matthew 26:1–16. In this passage, we witness the weight of what is to come. Jesus foretells His crucifixion, a woman pours out costly perfume in a beautiful act of worship, and Judas begins to walk the path of betrayal. It’s a moment thick with tension, devotion, and divine purpose.

💛 Let this be a moment of stillness in your day.
No commentary. Just the Word.

👉 This episode pairs with the main devotional reflection for Episode 493 on Circle Time for the Soul. Be sure to listen to that full episode for deeper reflection and prayer.
