Pastor Justice Appiah Afful The Gethsemane experience before the Lord's Supper Gethsemane is a place of crushing. 1. Allow God to crush your character and will. i. We have produced Gifted Leaders without character. ii. The world has also produced intellectual leaders without any morality. iii.Visionary leaders who are without values. 2.A place of spiritual struggle that affects your will desires and prayer life. i.Jesus had to pray more fervently in order to prevail. ii.It is a place where the Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. iii.If the flesh is weak, then allow the spirit to overshadow the flesh. iv.When Jesus gave way to the Spirit to crush him, he was indeed refreshed by an angel it a place of Spiritual Battle 3. Gethsemane is a place where we surrender our will to Jesus. 4. Gethsemane is a place of betrayal by someone close to you. BIBLE VERSES Matthew 26:36-39 John 18:1-12
