Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the people to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. Matthew 27:20
Lord we wonder how those that were following You and loving You could be convinced by these elders and chief priests. Peer pressure! And we have it today…..peer pressure. We try to teach our children not to give in to it but often we don’t do much better ourselves. Our world seems to fall into this trap so often today. We want to be all things to all people instead of doing the ‘right’ thing.
Thank You Lord for giving us the backbones to stand up against peer pressure.
Thank You for giving us the wisdom to know the difference.
Thank You for giving us the strength to stand up and be counted as Your follower.
We need You Lord and we know You are always there to help us. Thank You.
Thank You Lord.
