June 11, 2026 1 Kings 7; Psalm 91:11–16; John 19:6–24 NLT

Pilate answered, “You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him.” John 19:6 (NIV) No question about it: Pilate knew Jesus was innocent. Yet under pressure from the Jewish leaders, he handed Him over to injustice. We may feel pressured to do wrong—in our families, at our jobs, or in the community. Do we avoid Pilate’s mistake and stand firm? May we always seek God’s defense instead of falling into evil.
