I have a question

[Elfbaugh]

Do you believe God comforted Jesus and the disciples while they were being killed?

 

[Articles]

We understand that you have a question about whether God comforted Jesus and the disciples during their deaths. Let us first consider the biblical evidence together.

When Jesus was on the cross, He cried out, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Matthew 27:46 WEB). This was a moment of immense emotional and physical agony, reflecting the separation from God as Jesus took on the sins of the world. However, even in this moment, Jesus trusted and surrendered to God's will. Later, just before His death, Jesus commended His spirit into God’s hands, saying, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" (Luke 23:46 WEB).

While the disciples were not killed during the crucifixion, they did face persecution and martyrdom later in their ministry. The Bible assures us that God is with His servants in their trials. As Paul wrote, "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:38-39 WEB).

In the Psalms, David expresses the comfort and protection God provides even in death: "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me" (Psalm 23:4 WEB).

Let us pray:

Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for the ultimate sacrifice You made for us. Thank You that even in the darkest moments, You trusted in God's plan. Provide comfort and assurance to those who face trials and persecution. Help us to remember that nothing can separate us from Your love. In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.

May this understanding bring you comfort and strengthen your faith. Always remember, it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As the Scripture says, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB).

We've been thinking about your question and wanted to share some more thoughts with you. It's true that Jesus' cry on the cross might seem like a moment of despair, but remember, He was feeling the weight of all humanity's sins. Even so, He trusted in God's plan. After all, He had already told His disciples, "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world" (John 16:33 NIV). This promise wasn't just for them, but for all of us.

The disciples, too, faced trials and persecution. But even in their darkest moments, God was with them. Paul, who faced many hardships himself, wrote, "The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom" (2 Timothy 4:18 NIV). This reassurance is for us as well.

Let's pray together: Dear Lord, thank You for Your unfailing presence in our lives. Help us to trust in You, even in our darkest moments. Comfort those who are going through trials and persecution, reminding them that nothing can separate us from Your love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Keep your eyes on Jesus, and remember, "He is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy" (Jude 1:24 NIV).
