Willing to Submit

John 18

Inspired thots

Jesus was willing and ready to submit to God's will. So, when the time came for Him to be arrested, He willingly had it done; whereas at other times, He managed to slip away. At the right time, He allowed Himself to be arrested to fulfill the will of God. Jesus really put God before self.

Such a difference with the Jewish leaders who thought only of themselves; they did not enter the Praetorium as it is deemed unclean and they wanted to partake the Passover. They didnt want to disrupt their comfortable slave lifestyle to the Romans with their own set of rules and religious structure. Unwilling to submit to God despite worldly circumstances do not bring about God's intended blessings and glory.
