Jesus Marched Forward to Face Trouble 


Think on this verse today, being amazed at the fearlessness of Jesus Christ. 

4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, "Whom are you seeking?" (Joh. 18:4). 

Jesus knew of the six mock trials that were coming, the beatings, the spitting, the betrayal of Judas, the forsaking of all the apostles, the denial of Peter, the scourging of the Romans, and the crucifixion. What did He do? He went forward and encountered the ones who were going to begin the whole terrible process. Let us be like our Lord, knowing that we are in the right and go forward to meet the troubles that face us.
