John 18:32 This took place to fulfill what Jesus had said about the kind of death he was going to die.
Jesus fulfilled many Old Testament prophecies, and many such as this one, were ones that he as a human had no control over. But God had spoken in advance and said what must happen to Jesus as he became a sacrifice to take away the penalty and guilt of our sins. This was all according to God's plan and nothing of it happened by accident. Jesus knew what his mission was and he fulfilled it to the end.

Jesus, I thank you that you loved us so much that you were willing to plan and participate in your own painful death! I do not deserve your love, but I thank you for your mercy on me, a sinner!
