Jesus is our preeminent example of the One Who was enticed with a huge price but did not consent nor let His knee be bent to the wicked devil's torment, but He was content with His Father's intent – He did His Father's will to any extent even to the descent of the humiliation of the cross so that He Who did not consent has made the greatest assent to the right hand of God the Father almighty!
Jesus was enticed by the devil after 40 days without food when He was very hungry, but He did not consent!
Jesus was enticed by the devil to test God and throw Himself down from the temple heights, but He did not consent!
Jesus was enticed by the devil to worship the devil and promised all the kingdoms of this world and their splendor, but He did not consent!
Jesus was enticed by Peter not to suffer many things and be killed, but He did not consent and told Peter: "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man."
Jesus was enticed by Peter not to humble Himself and wash His disciples' feet, but He did not consent!
That's my King! Do you know Him?!
Jesus was enticed in the Garden of Gethsemane not to go to the cross, but He did not consent! And said to His Father: "Not My will, but Yours be done!"
Jesus was enticed and tempted in every respect as we are, yet without sin because He did not, would not, and shall not consent!
He did not consent so that we might be saved from all our consenting!
He did not consent so that we might be forgiven!
He did not consent so that we might be adopted as the children of God!
He did not consent so that we might inherit every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places!
He did not consent so that all things work together for our good!
He did not consent so that all our needs might be met according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus!
He did not consent so that we might be totally satisfied in Him alone and have Him as our all in all!
He did not consent so that we might be made into the image of Christ!
He did not consent so that we might die to sin and not live in it any longer!
He did not consent so that we might not consent and say no to sin!
He did not consent so that we might love one another deeply!
He did not consent so that we might love our enemies, bless those who curse us, and pray for those who persecute us!
He did not consent so that we might enjoy fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore one day where there will be no more death, no more sin, no more tears, and no more pain!
He did not consent, but oh how He let Himself be ambushed by the wicked!
Oh He is the most innocent One, yet He allowed Himself to be ambushed by the greatest evil to ever cross the horizon of this world, so that He might die on that cross and rise again to save sinners from all evil forevermore!
That's my King! That's my King!
