TEXT: Matthew
27:11-26
TOPIC: ACCUSED
BUT NOT GUILTY
Today, the world prefers
evil people more than the good and righteous ones. Out of envy and jealousy,
Caiaphas accused Jesus before the leaders of the day (vs. 11), yet He did not
utter a word (vs. 13-14).
Pilate, after
cross-examining Jesus, was never convinced that He was guilty of the
accusations leveled against Him. But his attempt to exonerate Jesus was
thwarted by the mob.
Even when Pilate
succumbed to their demand by releasing a notorious prisoner, the people still
wanted Him to be crucified. At last, Pilate gave in to the pressure.
What a wicked world! This
is what we see in our churches and society today.
QUESTION: Have
you sometimes succumbed to doing evil because of pressure?
PRAYER: O
Lord, I ask for the boldness and strength to resist evil and uphold good, no
matter the pressure put on me, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Remain
Blessed
