2 Samuel 14-15:22
John 18:1-24
18:11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?”
John - Jesus had made the decision to do what His Fathers will was for His life, this is the thing we MUST decide, will I do what Gods will for my life is?
Psalm 119:97-112
Proverbs 16:8-9
16:8 Better is a little with righteousness,
Than vast revenues without justice.
9 A man’s heart plans his way,
But the LORD directs his steps.
John - We have a part, the Lord knows we plan the way of our lives by our choices, BUT the Lord has prepared "good works" in advance for us and He directs our steps to accomplish them!

John 18:11 Just who will be god in my life, will it be God or will it be another? Jesus knew his mission and purpose for being. Though Peter did not, Christ still resisted the temptation to be a follower of a different vision than that he knew was of the Father.Peter was about to slay a man when Christ came to be slain for man.
ReplyDeleteProv. 16:8 Better is a little with a lot of self-control than a lot with little to no control.All we seem to ever want is more; give us more God,we say,increase our boarders,enlarge our tents,make us a great nation.I believe what the Lord really wants to hear us say is,make us more God,help us to do more and to live more in you.Seek ye FIRST the kingdom of God...and all these things shall be added unto you.

ReplyDeleteShall I not drink the cup my Father has given me? - Jesus knew God ordained the things he was going to go through.
John 19:7-8 When Pilate heard that saying (Jesus proclaimed to be the son of God) he was more afraid. --Pilate thought literally this could be the son of God. Pilate could see Jesus was different, and he felt the restraint inside about what he allowed in this situation.
2 Sam 15:15 David entrusted his well being to God. He trusted God so much even to deal with him in a way that could potentially be unpleasant. He believed God would take care of his life even through being disciplined. "let Him do to me what seems good to him".
