Compelled by the Fear of Men

John 19

Inspired thots

Pilate had the power to release Jesus; yet, he shrunk back from exercising his authority and did not execute judgment righteously. He gave in to crowd pressure ~ the fear of man and a lackadaisical attitude although he repeatedly proclaimed no crime on Jesus.

It is very easy to succumb to man's pressure when one feels intimidated but God is in control. He sees things we cannot see or understand. Many a time we just have to walk by faith; how important to hear His voice clearly to live this life victoriously in His sight!
