Daily Walk Through the New Testament
August 2
Read Luke 22:54-23:12

In one night, Peter went from exhibiting furious loyalty to Jesus to denying he even knew Him. How could a rugged fisherman cut an ear off a Roman soldier and then be such a coward in front of a teenage servant in a matter of hours?
Peter experienced the power of enjoying Jesus’ presence. As long as Peter was with Jesus, he was bold and faithful. Left on his own, he compromised.
Learn to enjoy abiding with Jesus. Stay close to Him daily through personal devotions, worship, Bible study, and continual prayer. Any of us are capable of denying Jesus when we try to stand alone. Stay close to Him.
