Pilot has asked Jesus if He was the King of the Jews. Jesus answered, “Do you say this of your own accord or did others say it to you about Me?” Pilot answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed You over to me. What have You done?” John 18:34, 35
Lord, I am not sure if Pilot knew these answers and was trying to see what You would say or if he was really not sure why You had been turned over to him. The reason doesn’t really matter. What matters most is that You were innocent and were being blamed for something You did not do. You were not guilty and yet You were to be tried as someone guilty.
Thank You Lord for knowing how we feel when we are falsely accused.
Thank You for knowing our thoughts and motives.
Thank You for always being with us.
Oh how blessed we are Lord because You paid the price for us.
Thank You Lord.
