May 21, 2025 – God Already Knew
John 6:71
Sermon: 2023 Why Did Jesus Choose Judas?

Pray Over This

“He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve.”
John 6:71

Ponder This

We are so limited in comparison to God. Where man rules, God overrules. What we see one point at a time; God sees all at one time. God knew exactly precisely what Judas would do before Judas did it. Did Judas have a choice? Absolutely! Did God know it? Yes! Did God know it before time? Yes! Is God still in charge? Yes! It’s an amazing thing—human responsibility and divine sovereignty. You and I dwell in time. God dwells in eternity—the past, the present, and the future are alike to Him.

Nothing is out of control. God knows exactly everything that will happen, and He is on the winning side. There will be people who say, “Hey, don’t put that stuff on me, I’m going to live. It’s my life. Not Thy will, but mine be done.” God gave you a choice to respond that way. You can hear about God’s sovereignty and insist on your own way but that is not the way to true life. The best life is in submission to Him.

  • What amazes you about God? How can His sovereignty help us trust Him?
  • When have you responded to God, “Not Thy will but mine be done”? What happened? How can we submit to Him even when we want our own way?

Practice This

Thank God for His complete control.
