Jesus said unto them


"Jesus said unto them, 
If ye seek me, let these go their way."
John 18:8

Mark, my soul, the care which Jesus manifested even in his hour of trial, towards the sheep of his hand! The ruling passion is strong in death. He resigns himself to the enemy, but he interposes a word of power to set his disciples free.

 As to himself, like a sheep before her shearers he is dumb and opened not his mouth, but for his disciples' sake he speaks with almighty energy. 

Herein is love, constant, self-forgetting, faithful love. But is there not far more here than is to be found upon the surface? Have we not the very soul and spirit of the atonement in these words? The Good Shepherd lays down his life for the sheep, and pleads that they must therefore go free. The Surety is bound, and justice demands that those for whom he stands a substitute should go their way. 

In the midst of Egypt's bondage, that voice rings as a word of power, "Let these go their way." Out of slavery of sin and Satan the redeemed must come. 

In every cell of the dungeons of Despair, the sound is echoed, "Let these go their way," and forth come Despondency and Much-afraid. Satan hears the well-known voice, and lifts his foot from the neck of the fallen; and Death hears it, and the grave opens her gates to let the dead arise. Their way is one of progress, holiness, triumph, glory, and none shall dare to stay them in it.

 No lion shall be on their way, neither shall any ravenous beast go up thereon. "The hind of the morning" has drawn the cruel hunters upon himself, and now the most timid roes and hinds of the field may graze at perfect peace among the lilies of his loves. 

The thunder-cloud has burst over the Cross of Calvary, and the pilgrims of Zion shall never be smitten by the bolts of vengeance. 

Come, my heart, rejoice in the immunity which thy Redeemer has secured thee, and bless his name all the day, and every day.

"In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit."


"In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit."
Luke 10:21

The Saviour was "a man of sorrows," but every thoughtful mind has discovered the fact that down deep in his innermost soul he carried an inexhaustible treasury of refined and heavenly joy. 

Of all the human race, there was never a man who had a deeper, purer, or more abiding peace than our Lord Jesus Christ. "He was anointed with the oil of gladness above his fellows." 

His vast benevolence must, from the very nature of things, have afforded him the deepest possible delight, for benevolence is joy. There were a few remarkable seasons when this joy manifested itself. 

"At that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth." Christ had his songs, though it was night with him; though his face was marred, and his countenance had lost the lustre of earthly happiness, yet sometimes it was lit up with a matchless splendour of unparalleled satisfaction, as he thought upon the recompense of the reward, and in the midst of the congregation sang his praise unto God. 

In this, the Lord Jesus is a blessed picture of his church on earth. At this hour the church expects to walk in sympathy with her Lord along a thorny road; through much tribulation she is forcing her way to the crown. 

To bear the cross is her office, and to be scorned and counted an alien by her mother's children is her lot; and yet the church has a deep well of joy, of which none can drink but her own children. 

There are stores of wine, and oil, and corn, hidden in the midst of our Jerusalem, upon which the saints of God are evermore sustained and nurtured; and sometimes, as in our Saviour's case, we have our seasons of intense delight, for "There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of our God." 

Exiles though we be, we rejoice in our King; yea, in him we exceedingly rejoice, while in his name we set up our banners.

And he went a little farther


"And he went a little farther, 
and fell on his face, 
and prayed."
Matthew 26:39

There are several instructive features in our Saviour's prayer in his hour of trial. 
It was lonely prayer. 
He withdrew even from his three favoured disciples. 
Believer, be much in solitary prayer, especially in times of trial. 

Family prayer, social prayer, prayer in the Church, 
will not suffice, these are very precious, 
but the best beaten spice will smoke in your censer in your private devotions, 
where no ear hears but God's.

It was humble prayer. 
Luke says he knelt, but another evangelist says he "fell on his face." 
Where, then, must be thy place, thou humble servant of the great Master? 
What dust and ashes should cover thy head! 
Humility gives us good foot-hold in prayer. 

There is no hope of prevalence with God unless we abase ourselves that he may exalt us in due time.

It was filial prayer. 
"Abba, Father." 
You will find it a stronghold in the day of trial to plead your adoption. 

You have no rights as a subject, you have forfeited them by your treason; 
but nothing can forfeit a child's right to a father's protection. 
Be not afraid to say, "My Father, hear my cry."

Observe that it was persevering prayer. 
He prayed three times. 
Cease not until you prevail. 
Be as the importunate widow, whose continual coming earned what her first supplication could not win. 

Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving.

Lastly, it was the prayer of resignation. 
"Nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt." 
Yield, and God yields.

 Let it be as God wills, and God will determine for the best. 
Be thou content to leave thy prayer in his hands,
 who knows when to give, and how to give, 
and what to give, and what to withhold.

 So pleading, earnestly, importunately, 
yet with humility and resignation, 
thou shalt surely prevail.
