Making of Palm Sunday

 Sunday marks Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem on the donkey's colt; we see the revelation of the prophecy found in Zechariah 9:9 which declared; "Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion, Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See your king come to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey." and we see how those who believed Jesus to be their Messiah laid clothing down before His pathway while others waved palm leaves shouting, "Hosanna, Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord."

Everything Jesus did was to 'Fulfill All Righteousness' and knowing the time was drawing near for His Ultimate Sacrifice and needing to accomplish All that was destined for Him to do on earth, it was necessary for Him to be riding on a donkey, humbly representing Peace for this journey. Little did the people know the depth of His Kingdom nor the extent He was willing to suffer to accomplish ALL that was required for their Deliverance. Truly The Word of God had become man; a Man full of Grace and Truth; a man filled with such Unconditional Love to Fulfill All Righteousness so you and I could be Delivered, Redeemed, and Set Free Forevermore by the works He would Fulfill!

Arriving at Jerusalem, we see where Jesus goes up to the temple as was His custom to teach those who were in awe at His teaching; but finds people buying and selling and turning the temple into a marketplace. This angers Him but without sinning, He begins clearing them out of the temple and overturning tables of money changers and shouting at them not to make His Father's House a den of thieves.

Well this certainly did not set well with the scribes and chief priest, much less the sellers; who were all angered and fearful of Jesus!

As we look deeper into the days prior to His arrest and crucifixion, we see how satan runs rampant deceiving and manipulating minds of Jesus' own disciples. But until then, we will remember the works Jesus accomplished for you and me and all those who believe and receive Him as their Lord and Savior. Because of Jesus, we can enjoy a wonderfully blessed day, because He loves us unconditionally and so do I~~~
