Ultimate Obedience: Jesus In The Garden Of Gethsemane

What do you do when faced with an insurmountable situation that requires intensive prayer and obedience to God's calling on your life? On this week's episode, Nic Affolter and Dale Walker sit down for a one on one conversation about the journey of Jesus and his disciples to the garden of Gethsemane.
The Final hours of his ministry reveal a Jesus we can all relate to. He was filled with emotions of anguish, fear, doubt, and physical pain. A deep feeling of isolation took over as his disciples fell asleep when Jesus needed them most. We have all been there at one time or another, praying to God to spare us from a situation we would rather not come face to face with.
In this moment, our Lord's example reveals to us that no matter what the situation, it is total obedience to God's will and giving it all to him in prayer that gets us through. Not just a quick plea to God to spare us, but discerning prayer that desires to reveal God's true purpose for our lives in any situation, no matter how long it takes. Ultimate obedience is achieved when we submit our hearts to his true purposes, and battle through the pain and suffering as long as it takes until He gives us victory over our enemies.
If you find yourself struggling to commit to God's word, this one's for you. If you have doubts that Jesus can relate to your fears and doubts, give this one a listen. Hang out with us for just a short while and be prepared to be in awe of His love for us. His sacrifice was our gift, and he doesn't ask for anything in return notwithstanding our love and obedience. Please share our podcast with a friend, a co-worker, or a loved one. Help us spread the word of God's great calling on our lives!
