Whom are You Seeking?
By Robert Schaetzle

Jesus therefore, knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to
them, “Whom are you seeking?” John 18:4 NKJV


The night of His betrayal Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane with His
Apostles, all except the one who was to betray Him. It was to be the last precious
moment alone with His disciples. Judas was to come later with the officers from the chief
priests and Pharisees to arrest Him; with torches, lanterns, and weapons, there was to be
no mistake whom they were planning to arrest.

Imagine yourself being there that night in the garden with our Lord. A night when these Jewish leaders reacted, by falling to the ground. Did they not recognize or understand they were confronting God Himself?
The Jews would not accept or recognize the prophecies of old in what Jesus did, demonstrating His deity as being God in human flesh. Jesus revealed Himself as the ‘I AM’ seven times in the Gospel of John; such as “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.” John 6:35 NKJV

Visiting Gethsemane in those last days of our Israel tour; we gathered together in the garden during a special time of worship and communion. In still quiet, asking ourselves, in our own way the same question; “Who are you seeking, is my life given over to Him with a completely surrendered heart?” How Jesus wept for His people Israel riding on a donkey entering Jerusalem. Search your own heart throughout the year, consider daily; He who is in you is far greater than all the world.
