Luke 22:31-46
“Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”
But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”
Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”
He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
On reaching the place, he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”
“Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.”
Why?
Jesus reminded us to Get up and pray so that we will not fall into temptation.
Jesus knew everything but face the crucify, Jesus for the fresh body, his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. Jesus knows this way to cross is a hard way to bear.
Jesus obeyed the command of the Lord and went on the way to the cross. Because of his great love to us.
Peter was chosen by Jesus, and Jesus knew peter would deny him three times, but encouraged him to strengthen his brothers, and other disciples. Peter went on the way of Jesus and died on the cross either.
Most of us come to death unexpectedly, but Jesus knew it this way is more difficult to face, and this way pain and hard to walk.
Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment: Issiah 53:12 because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors. Jesus is the Savior is written in Isaiah.
How?
So as we go on the way of Jesus to love others. Jesus is love.
