Mark 14
CHAPTER OUTLINE
OVERVIEW
Falling Away
You will fall away. Not maybe but definitely. The time will come when temptation will come around and will tempt you to fall away.
Fall away – departing, or gradually decrease in number
Jesus is warning his disciples that the falling away will soon appear.
“everyone of his disciples will fall away, or least tempted to fall away. “ – Gospel of Mark 14
Peter ONE of Jesus’ closest disciples declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.” ( vs 29)
Peter was overcome with pride and pride ruled his actions.
Jesus knew the outcome before Peter knew the outcome. He was filled with his pride to think he could not be deceived. Don’t think you can’t fall away, the elect can be deceived
the BIBLE tells us in Matthew 24:24
“ For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.”

But even if you and I are tempted, God gives us a way of escape. He provides a way out of our temptation for us
– when we are tempted to fall into pride.
– when we fall into fear.
or allow discouragement to rule our actions.
insecurity, jealousy, greed and pride.
Do not be surprised
If Peter one of Jesus closest disciples, falls away, you and I have a chance to fall away too.
but even if we do, or when we do,
let us remmember,
Proverbs 24:16 states, “For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again; but the wicked stumble in time of calamity,”
Illustrating the resilience and perseverance of the righteous in the face of adversity.
God always provides a way of escape for his chosen ones.
the BIBLE tells us in 1 Corinthians 10:13
“ No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.”

Mark 13
Betrayal
“ONE of the Twelve betrayed Jesus“ – Gospel of Mark 14
In the GARDEN of Gethsemane
Jesus in his last moments, prayed to the FATHER
- to pass this cup for him. To take away the pain, to not procceed with the plan.
However,
in the end, Jesus was obedient to God’s Plan.
not my will but yours be done
“Abba, Father,” he said, “everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.“ ( vs 36 )
Arrest of Jesus
While they were speaking Judas the betrayer acknowledged Jesus with a KISS. ( brotherly love)
One of you will betray me. Psalm 41:9
Mark 14:20 AMP
“And He replied, “It is one of the twelve [disciples], one who is dipping bread in the bowl with Me. ” Mark 14:21-22 AMP
The enemy will use anyone that is willing to be used. Judas allowed the enemy to tell him lies, and that deception ruled his actions. Peter the closest disciple was filled with pride, and pride ruled his actions, Pride also worked in Judas heart and he decided to go forward with his plan.
To betray JESUS and to give him UP as a ransom for MANY
” Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.“ ( vs 38)

Pray and Apply
Read 2 Corinthians 12:7-10. Reflect on what it means to find strength in Christ. Where do you need strength in your faith at the moment? Are you relying on your own abilities without trusting in the power of the Holy Spirit to strengthen you? Spend a few minutes in prayer, acknowledging weak areas in your life and asking God for the strength you need to do His will.
Your Story is important to someone else. The details of your testimony are life to someone else. I couldn’t have spoken into strangers life, if I myself did not go through the battles. I can only speak because I know the pain, the hurt, and confusion. I pray God comforts us, and gives us the grace to tell our story, no matter how small the details are.
Let’s not hesitate to share our testimonies and help each other walk through the valleys, and reach our destinations together. With a sense of fulfillment, and helping others get there can be a rewarding and satisfying experience, because when we lift each other up, we don’t just reach our destinations, we thrive in them.
I’d love to share your Story on my SITE!
