Quit being afraid
Mark 10:32-34
Once again the disciples are walking with Jesus and they are following him and not really knowing what is going on. They are following but completely lost. So Jesus takes them aside and is describing to them what they are about to experience as they are following him. He clearly lays out the process by which he is going to be crucified. Betrayed, condemned, delivered, mocked, scoured, spit on, killed. And then rising from the dead.
I’m not going to go in order, but I want to draw a few things about this scripture that we can get from it
Jesus always Goes before us
Its an interesting distinction that as the disciples are walking their way with Jesus that he is “going before them”That’s the heart of Jesus folks. That’s the heart of a leader. He goes before his disciples. He doesn’t ask of them more than he asks of himselfHe is the one who is going towards the cross- he is the one who is going to face death, and in this instance- they are afraid, and Jesus is going before them.Deuteronomy 31:8 And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed.”There are many times in scripture where you see God going before someone. They are able to see God before them, and know that they will be taken care of as they go.Lets be honest- who respects a leader who doesn’t go before them? Not many!A leader who is never willing to go before their people will never lead them. How can you lead from the back?Isaiah 45:2 ‘I will go before you And make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the gates of bronze And cut the bars of iron.

He’s not concerned with it. He’s not worried about it.Deuteronomy 1:30 The Lord your God, who goes before you, He will fight for you, according to all He did for you in Egypt before your eyes,This is why reading the Bible is so good!
