Matt. 27

Pilot interestingly heeded the cry of the crowd, “Crucify Him,” when asked what to do with Jesus.

We supposedly live in a democracy where the will of the people is the ruling voice. People vote on their leaders and the issues that affect their lives. My point is this; the will of the people is not always reasonable, but in the case of Jesus’ crucifixion, it was the will of the Father. Their voice, although seemingly harsh towards Christ, accomplished God’s eternal plan.

In a day when the officials we have elected seem to be so against God and His ways, God can and will use them to ultimately fulfill His purpose and will.

We pray for our elected officials.
