Every day, we are faced with choices—some small, like what to eat for breakfast, and some life-altering, like choosing between right and wrong. But few choices in history have been as significant as the one made by the crowd in Jerusalem: to release Barabbas, a criminal, instead of Jesus, the Son of God. This moment was not just a tragic misunderstanding or a politically motivated decision—it was a direct illustration of the gospel message. The choice of Barabbas over Jesus is symbolic of humanity’s natural tendency to reject God’s ways. It forces us to ask ourselves: Are we making the same mistake in our daily lives? Are we choosing sin, comfort, or worldly desires over Christ? This devotional will take a deep look at this historic decision, the meaning of Jesus’ sacrifice, and how we, too, are given the choice to follow Him wholeheartedly.   Read More

Imagine a moment when you’ve disappointed someone deeply—a friend, a family member, or even yourself. Perhaps it was a promise you broke, a fear you let control you, or a decision that hurt someone you love. This is the story of Peter’s denial of Jesus, a moment of failure that could have defined him forever. Yet, Peter’s story didn’t end with his denial. Instead, it became a testimony of God’s grace, a tale of restoration, and an example for us to follow. Peter’s journey reminds us that even when we falter, God provides a way back to Him. Let’s dive deeper into the lessons we can learn from Peter’s denial, how it contrasts with Judas’ betrayal, and how these examples speak to us today.  Read More

This passage captures a pivotal moment in Jesus’ journey to the cross. It’s the night of His betrayal, and Jesus is in the Garden of Gethsemane, a place He often retreated to for prayer and fellowship with His disciples. The weight of His mission is bearing down on Him. Judas, one of His twelve hand-picked disciples, has chosen to betray Him, leading Roman soldiers and religious leaders to arrest Him. Historically, the Jewish leaders saw Jesus as a threat. His teachings, miracles, and growing following challenged their authority and disrupted the status quo. Judas, disillusioned and greedy, became the tool for their plans. This betrayal happened during Passover, a time when Jewish people celebrated God’s deliverance from Egypt. The irony is profound: while they celebrated deliverance, they prepared to arrest and crucify the ultimate Deliverer. The soldiers’ response to Jesus’ declaration, “I am he,” is equally telling. At His words, they fell backward to the ground, a physical manifestation of His divine authority. This event highlights Jesus’ sovereignty even as He willingly surrendered to fulfill God’s plan of salvation.  Read More

This story reminds us that no matter how trapped we feel—by circumstances, fear, or even our own mistakes—God’s power is greater. It invites us to trust Him, not only for deliverance but also for the faith and obedience needed to walk into the freedom He provides.  Read More
