"Palm Sunday -A fresh Look" by Rev. Justin Clarance
John 12: 12-19
We celebrate Palm sunday every year. But what we actually see:
1. There is a strong declaration of love: Jesus has organized this event himself. It was purposeful and done out of compassion and love.
2.It was time: It was Time to do what He came to do.
God was determining the timing, not man. Jesus was the lamb of God taking on the sins of the world.This is a voluntary action.
Knowing what was before Him-betrayal, humiliation, suffering and death He chose to come to Jerusalem (for you in His mind).
A willing sacrifice for all of us. He has such a magnificent love for us.
Jesus loves you and He will not allow needless suffering in your life.
3. There was strong reason for hope:
Zechariah 9:9 God has a plan
Daniel 9-Prophecy of 70 weeks
He is going to return as King of Kings. Are you ready to face Him?
So we see love, purpose and hope. So trust in Him.
Questions for Palm Sunday:
Are you willing to serve Him unil that day when His plan on earth is fulfilled?
Are you willing to trust Him?
Are you willing to follow Him?
Are you willing to entrust yourself to Him?
May be it is time for you to bow before His throne and to give Him honour and Praise He desires and deserves.
God Bless
