The religious leaders wanted to arrest Jesus because they realized he was telling the story [about the vineyard and the tenant farmers] against them — they were the wicked farmers. But they were afraid of the crowd, so they left him and went away.
—Mark 12:12 NLT
Key Thought
Sadly, rather than repenting when they heard Jesus' story, the leaders resolved more intently to arrest and kill Jesus (Mark 3:6, 11:18). Their problem, however, was that Jesus was incredibly well-liked among the people. So the leaders left Jesus and went away. How sad! Salvation, redemption, love, grace, and power were within their grasp, and they turned away. Unfortunately, many people do the same thing today.
Today's Prayer
God, my Abba Father, please help me never to leave Jesus. Please help me never to move away from him because I don't want to change my lifestyle, my beliefs, or my comforts to follow him. Give me a heart that seeks after you and your truth no matter the costs. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
