Focus Passage: Mark 14:1-2 (NCV)<\/div>
\r\n

1\u00a0<\/sup>It was now only two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The leading priests and teachers of the law were trying to find a trick to arrest Jesus and kill him. 2\u00a0<\/sup>But they said, \u201cWe must not do it during the feast, because the people might cause a riot.\u201d<\/p>\r\n

Read Mark 14:1-2<\/a> in context and\/or in other translations on BibleGateway.com!<\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n

Leading up to Jesus\u2019 crucifixion on the cross, several of the gospel writers include a short transition statement that is worth us paying attention to. In most cases, this transition statement would simply be skimmed over when reading it, but if we pause long enough to let these verses sink in, we can see something incredible in what was planned vs. what actually happened.<\/p>\r\n

Mark\u2019s gospel tells us that \u201cIt was now only two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. The leading priests and teachers of the law were trying to find a trick to arrest Jesus and kill him. But they said, \u2018We must not do it during the feast, because the people might cause a riot.\u2019\u201d<\/strong> (v. 1-2)<\/p>\r\n

In these verses, we can see a clear contrast between two different ideas. The first is that the religious leaders were set on finding a way to trick and arrest Jesus with the ultimate intent of killing Him. However, the second idea is that the leaders know that they must do this when not many others are around because otherwise it might cause a riot. Because of the fear of rioting among Jesus\u2019 supporters, the leaders decide to wait and not look to arrest Him during the feast.<\/p>\r\n

However, Jesus has told the disciples that He was going up to Jerusalem and would be killed. Jesus knew the exact time and exact way these events would happen \u2013 and specifically that His death would be during the feast.<\/p>\r\n

In our passage, we see a growing conflict between God\u2019s plan and our human plans. Looking at what happened during that Passover-crucifixion weekend, we can easily conclude that whenever our plans conflict with God\u2019s plan, God\u2019s plan always takes precedence.<\/strong> While this doesn\u2019t mean that we cannot pray and ask God to adjust His plan, knowing this detail should prompt us to always frame our requests by asking for God\u2019s will to be done.<\/p>\r\n

Sometimes God will change His plans based on our requests, but even if He doesn\u2019t, we should trust that He knows what is best from eternity\u2019s perspective.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n
