John 19
Inspired thots
Forgive us, Lord for crucifying You for we truly do not know what we did.
Man can be so obnoxious and scary that others are easily intimidated from standing up for what is true.
The Jews in this chapter could influence Pilate into crucifying Jesus when the latter found no wrong with Jesus. Yet, He was flogged and ridiculed and crucified.
Pilate feared... yes, he did fear God when he heard that Jesus was the Son of God; yet, he feared man more. The Jews threatened him with proclamation of Caesar as their only king. People can be so blinded when their hearts have become callous.
What was the cause that turned the tide so suddenly, when all the while they could not lay a finger on Jesus and suddenly they were emboldened to push forth their deepest agenda?
Only the HAND of God... He allowed it. Thus, better to fear God than to fear Man.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
