Matthew 26:1-16 - Better to be Betrayed

Life Lesson (verse Matthew 26:2)

Jesus desires for you to know biblical precepts and have spiritual knowledge.

Life Lesson (verse Matthew 26:5)

Sometimes your betrayal will be what God ordains for Jesus to be most glorified.

Life Lesson (verse Matthew 26:16)

It's better to know you will be betrayed for standing with Jesus than to stand against Him in betrayal.

Jeremiah 33:2-3 NKJV

2 "Thus says the LORD who made it, the LORD who formed it to establish it (the LORD is His name): 3 'Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.'

John 15:15 NKJV

"No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you."

Isaiah 29:14-16 NKJV

14 Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work  Among this people,  A marvelous work and a wonder;  For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,  And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden." 15 Woe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the LORD,  And their works are in the dark;  They say, "Who sees us?" and, "Who knows us?" 16 Surely you have things turned around!  Shall the potter be esteemed as the clay;  For shall the thing made say of him who made it,  "He did not make me"?  Or shall the thing formed say of him who formed it,  "He has no understanding"?

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NKJV

4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

Psalm 18:30 NLT

God's way is perfect. All the LORD's promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.

Isaiah‬ ‭28:12-13 NKJV

12 To whom He said, “This is the rest with which You may cause the weary to rest,” And, “This is the refreshing”; Yet they would not hear. But the word of the LORD was to them, “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little,” That they might go and fall backward, and be broken And snared and caught.”
