Genesis 36:1-43; Psalms 9:1-10:18; Matthew 20:17-34

Arise, let us go from here. John 14:31 NKJV
Rise, let us be going. Matthew 26:46 NKJV

When the Lord finished His upper room ministry, He said, “Arise, let us go from here”. It was time to move out from there to the Mount of Olives. They crossed the Kidron Valley and made their way up to Gethsemane. He left His followers to watch, pray, and sleep, while He went a little farther to pray alone and weep. From the garden in Olivet, the Lord again called to His followers saying, “Rise, let us be going”. This step would take our Saviour to Calvary and from there up into glory. —Rex Trogdon

As Lamb of God, Thy path we view,
Thy Father’s will Thy whole delight;
To Calvary we trace Thy way,
Each step of Thine, with glory bright. —Inglis Fleming
