thus far and he touched his ear and healed him then Jesus said unto the chief for East and the captains of the temple and the elders which will come to him but you come out against a thief with swords and staves when I was dealing with you in the temple you stretch forth No Hands against me but this is your hour and the power of Darkness Jesus told him this is your hour this is the the hour of the power of Darkness let's keep reading it says then took they him and let him and brought him to the high priest house and Peter followed afar off and we know that Peter went on to deny the Lord and that's when the mocking and the beating of Jesus began to happen and then he was taken from there and crucified for our sins now I want you to understand something that and I said this in the introduction this is a Biblical principle that we have to see Jesus never sinned now anybody who tells you that Jesus said they're a liar and a Deceiver Jesus Christ the son of the Living God God manifested In the Flesh never sin he was the sinless Spotless Lamb of God he came to be a sinless perfect sacrifice for our sins and we must believe on him we must confess him and we must make him Lord Of Our Lives to be saved to have our sins washed away and to know that we can inherit eternal life so Jesus never did anything wrong and yet his mission there would be a point in his life when Satan and the powers of Darkness would have their moment in his life this is what he said remember in another place I believe it's in John when he said you know what I think it's John chapter 11 or 12 when they came to get him and he said you know this no man you couldn't do this unless it was permitted to be done and you have to understand something in your life any of you that's lived as a Christian for any amount of time you ought to know that there's times when you're kind of uh feeling like the devil's winning right there's a season there's an hour where the powers of Darkness are allowed to come in and attack you steal from you hurt you and it's in those Seasons when we are attacked when it appears that Satan is allowed to have his way it's in those Seasons that we feel like where is God why doesn't God answer my prayer what you know why doesn't God do a miracle here why do

I have to go through this pain and suffering but we have to remember something that we forget as Christians and I'm talking to Christians today and maybe this will help you if you're not a Christian but I'm talking to Christians today the Bible says if we're going to be Christians if we're going to be Disciples of Jesus Christ the servant is not greater than the master meaning if he walked through it then we're going to have to walk through it he said if they persecuted me they're going to persecute you if they crucified me they'll crucify you if they kill me they'll kill you they hate me they'll hate you now we don't like to talk about that as Christians because we've been fed a gospel in America for years now that we're supposed to always be prosperous we're supposed to always be full of joy we're supposed to always have everything we want everything we need and nothing bad supposed to happen if you're a Christian I mean that is that is one of the biggest lies that the devil's ever told that if you're a Christian and walking with Jesus nothing bad will ever happen to you if you're doing it just right foreign but I'm sorry folks if you're going to truly be a disciple of Jesus if you're going to deny yourself at some point and take up the cross and say I'm a sinner I need salvation I know Jesus is my salvation he is the way the truth and the life I must have my sins washed away I don't want to die and go to hell I want to go to heaven if you ever if you ever realize that you've got to understand that taking up that cross means that I am going to be hated rejected persecuted not saying there won't be seasons of joy and peace I'm not saying there won't be seasons of blessing and prosperity I'm not saying there won't be Seasons where you see Miracles and good things but you can't just expect that you will only go through in good times and good things let me see good things you got to understand that there is an enemy who is after your soul he wants to take you to Hell Satan and the demon Spirits the Fallen Angels they want to take you to hell and sometimes God to knowing in his great wisdom that we need to be strengthened he will allow Satan to come in and test us and for everybody it's different you know what bothers you might not bother me if it bothers me might not bother you but as a Christian Satan's going to come and he's going to have an hour where the power of Darkness whether it's allowed to wreak havoc in your life and then what are you going to do
