Rev. Curtis Deterding, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Fort Myers, FL joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Matthew 26:1-35.
Jesus is working the ground to prepare everyone for the cross. He calls everyone to faith, like the woman anointing Jesus’ head for burial. The comfort of Jesus’ preparation that He doesn’t just give words but Himself, His body and blood, to give us forgiveness and a taste of heaven today. We are reminded again that “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.” Peter confessed that he would NEVER deny Christ, but he did. We pray that the Holy Spirit will keep us steadfast in Him and find comfort in all that He has done for us. “O Holy Spirit, fill us with faith and prepare us to confess Jesus as Lord and stay steadfast in Him. Give us the right understanding of Your precious supper that we may receive Your benefits and trust in Your promise of forgiveness. In Your name, Amen”
