TOPIC: Don’t Be A Pilate (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 28 September 2021)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 2, Luke 2:29-52

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 27:15-24

15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.

16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?

18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.

22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.

23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

MEMORY VERSE: “Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.” – Proverbs 23:23

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
A compromising life is unstable and insecure, liable for eternal destruction.

PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
I PRAY FOR YOU TO RECEIVE THE DISCERNING POWER TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE VOICE OF TRUTH AND THAT OF DECEIT AND DESTRUCTION, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:
The gospels recorded the story of Pilate, particularly in relation to the trial of our Lord Jesus Christ and the release of a prisoner, according to the Jewish laws at that point in time. This man knew the truth, was warned by his wife, saw no justifiable reasons for declaring Jesus guilty, yet he yielded to the pressure from the people. He sought the favour of men against his conscience and the Truth. He was close to being saved, but he missed it. If only he realised that he was writing eternal history, even his own destruction

There are still many Pilates around, even in the church. Christians that get easily manipulated, such that they fall into compromise. Men-pleasers, fame and popularity seekers, forgetting that it is God that promotes and celebrates a man. Unfortunately, in his ignorance, Pilate washed his hands! An outward show of, “my hands are clean”. He had forgotten or was ignorant of the fact that God does not look at the face of a man, but his heart. No amount of washing of hands can cleanse anyone from guilt or the consequences of his or her sins. Only the blood of Jesus can!

The problem here is the conscience! What is that other voice that is louder than your conscience? Watch it! It is a distraction and a destroyer. Your conscience is the police of your mind, telling you what is good or bad. Listen to it! Refuse to yield to the voice of sin and temptation. Don’t be a people-pleaser, but a God seeker and pleaser. You are created to do that which is pleasing unto Him.

Are you afraid of people as against God? Pray for boldness to stand for the truth at all times, even when you may need to stand alone. Stephen did. He was stoned to death, but he saw Jesus. The truth is naked, but lies wear many coats to cover up. Embrace the truth and experience peace and the fullness of all that is in Christ. Fear has torment! How long will you stand against the truth and die in torment?

Either in church, in your family or at work place, stand for Christ and for the truth. Those who hailed you today will pull you down tomorrow. Jesus is the only friend that will never forsake you!

PRAYER POINTS:

MORNING

Every spirit of compromise, lose your grip upon my life, in the name of Jesus.
Power to live above human pressures, come upon my life, in the name of Jesus.
I shall not be a victim of evil compromise, in the name of Jesus.

EVENING

Satanic trap, prepared to catch me and rubbish my salvation, catch fire, in the name of Jesus.
O God, arise and set me above the evil entanglements of this world, in the name of Jesus.
I shall stand for Christ alone all the days of my life, in the name of Jesus.
Holy Spirit, enable me to discern correctly and live a godly life, in the name of Jesus.
