God Does Not Abandon His Work
When a new king comes to power, those who oppose the temple construction convince him to stop Judah’s rebuilding efforts. Later, another king is in power and the Lord turns his heart so he aids God’s people in their work (Ezra 6:22).
In John 18, Jesus faces trial. Despite finding no cause to have Jesus killed, Pilate gives in to the Jews’ demands to crucify Him. John shows that even Jesus’ trial and death fulfills Scripture and is part of God’s plan.
Where have you hit opposition doing what God called you to?
