ACTS 5:30
” The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.”
INSIGHTS
Though Jesus was always in complete control and laid down his life willingly, no man being able to take it from him by force and against his will, yet, Peter says that these wicked men “slew” (killed) Jesus and hanged him on a tree (the cross). Jesus submitted to allow them to do this to him. He could have stopped it at any time, but did not, in submission to His Father’s will. Who is your Father? Do you submit to the will of your Father or do you always want your will to prevail at all cost.
PRAYER
Thank You, Beloved Father, for showing your power over evil, sin, hate, jealousy, wickedness and death. In the name of Jesus, my Lord and Savior, I offer my praise and thanksgiving for Your Love and everything in my life and family. Amen.
