Palm Sunday thoughts

“The Lord has announced to the ends of the earth: “Tell my people Zion, ‘Your Savior is coming. His reward is with him, and the people he has won arrive ahead of him.’ ”” Isaiah‬ ‭62‬:‭11‬ ‭GW‬‬

“Rejoice, O people of Zion! Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem! Look, your king is coming to you. He is righteous and victorious, yet he is humble, riding on a donkey— riding on a donkey’s colt.” Zechariah‬ ‭9‬:‭9‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“As Jesus and the disciples approached Jerusalem, they came to the town of Bethphage on the Mount of Olives. Jesus sent two of them on ahead. “Go into the village over there,” he said. “As soon as you enter it, you will see a donkey tied there, with its colt beside it. Untie them and bring them to me. If anyone asks what you are doing, just say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and he will immediately let you take them.” This took place to fulfill the prophecy that said, “Tell the people of Jerusalem, ‘Look, your King is coming to you. He is humble, riding on a donkey— riding on a donkey’s colt.’” The two disciples did as Jesus commanded. They brought the donkey and the colt to him and threw their garments over the colt, and he sat on it. Most of the crowd spread their garments on the road ahead of him, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. Jesus was in the center of the procession, and the people all around him were shouting, “Praise God for the Son of David! Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Praise God in highest heaven!”” Matthew‬ ‭21‬:‭1‬-‭9‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Jesus came riding on a donkey the symbol of peace! Just as the angles at his birth proclaimed “Then all at once in the night sky, a vast number of glorious angels appeared, the very armies of heaven! And they all praised God, singing: “Glory to God in the highest realms of heaven! For there is peace and a good hope given to the sons of men.”” Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭13‬-‭14‬ ‭TPT‬‬

The Prince of Peace! He was among them that day and He is among us today! 

What joy to celebrate The Kings arrival both then and now! For He is alive and better than among, He has made our hearts His home when we repent and believe that Jesus is the King of Kings and the Savior of the World who died to take away our sins! 

What a wonderful reality He has given us the opportunity to choose, because it is a choice! 

So today will you welcome the King into your heart? 

That’s what Jesus came for, to seek and to save the lost! 

“For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.”” Luke‬ ‭19‬:‭10‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Gods plan since the first sin in the garden. 

““For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.”John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭NLT‬‬
