Mark 14:38
We generally assume that Jesus is speaking of his spirit and his flesh here. And that is possible. However, we need to consider the possibility that he is speaking of Peter and the other disciples. Though they would forsake him, this did not prevent him from giving them good advice to the contrary. He taught them to do well, even when he knew they wouldn’t.
They were willing in their spirit to remain with him no matter what, but in the flesh they were prone to weakness , failure, and disloyalty.
Heavenly Father, you always give us just what we need. As Jesus was showing mankind how to properly submit to your will, he also was warning his disciples about the weakness of the flesh. Thank you for the good instruction we find in your Word! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
