Spiritual Meaning of Crown of Thorns

• Thorn in the world because of sin . thorns is the result of a curse due to sin ( Genesis 3:8 ) . The curse of sin brings pain and suffering , as well as with thorns stuck in his head , even accompanied with the blows of bamboo .

The Bible says that Jesus became a curse to die on the cross for us so that the blessing of Abraham comes to us ( Galatians 3:13-14 ) . All the pain and suffering caused by sin has been restored so that we bear .

• Thorns used to hold the head of a lamb for the sacrifice of Abraham ( Genesis 22:13) . Jesus sacrificed to replace us . There is the principle of change of position in the cross of Christ . Jesus was rejected so we are accepted by the Father in Heaven . Jesus suffered so that we might be healed . Jesus insulted and demeaned so that we glorified . 

• Thorns plug to drain the blood that carries the anointing and blessing of the head to the bottom of the robe ( Psalm 133:2-3 ) . On the cross with Jesus' shed blood clod down to earth from injuries from thorns on his head .

His head may not be enforced because of the crown of thorns that stuck in his head . Because of that he always looked to us to pour out blessing and anointing earthshaking for us .

• Thorn is a tool to bring the pain that we are not arrogant . As experienced by Paul ( 2 Corinthians 12:7 ) . The crown of thorns , is an insult to Jesus . He humbled that we elevated or glorified where our strength is not working anymore but the power of God at work within us , that's true glory .

Look at what happened in Exodus 3:3-6 , God appeared in the middle of a thorn bush before Moses . Amid the thorns that you have passed , there will come the glory of God for your life , because his power will work perfectly . So the crown of thorns must be received by Jesus that we are given the Crown of Glory .
