Power in the Dark
In our darkest hours—when we feel alone, frightened, and powerless—Jesus shows us another way.
Join us in Luke 22:47–71 as we witness Jesus in His darkest hour. Though betrayed, denied, and condemned, He remains calm, courageous, and utterly in control.
The Betrayal
Judas betrays Jesus with a kiss. Yet Jesus, fully aware, steps forward, protects His disciples, heals His enemy, and confronts the powers of darkness.
The Denial
Peter denies Jesus three times. But Jesus, knowing all of Peter’s failures, still loves, prays for, and later restores him. The Omniscient One is denied, but never vindictive.
The Council
In a sham trial, Jesus refuses to play their game. Instead, He boldly proclaims Himself the Son of Man, seated at the right hand of God. Condemned, but never vanquished.
Takeaway:
It might look like the powers of darkness are winning.
But it is King Jesus who wields Power in the Dark.
