Zechariah 9:9 See, your King comes to you, righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. Jesus entered the city according to a specific time the Father had set.  ( In the fulness of times) The same can be said for his entrance and arrival in our lives. Jesus comes to us at just the right time, often when we're least expected, in a way we would have never anticipated. But the good news is God has also  pre-arranged our encounter with him. He entered into Jerusalem humbly, not with all the usual fanfare that accompanies kings and great leaders but as a humble servant, a king riding a donkey. He comes into our hearts the same way, as the Lamb of God destined to be the Lion of Judah and the King of our hearts.   Thanks for joining us for an insightful look at Palm SundaySupport the showGrowing our inner man as we connect with God's Word

On Palm Sunday Jesus had a hero's welcome into Jerusalem. By Friday, he was crucified at Golgotha. "In this world we can quickly go from a hero to a zero in a nanosecond," Rev. Rick Belous points out. "But when we hold to spiritual principles it does not ultimately depend upon what the outside world is doing," he will add.

Jesus' Triumphal Entry publicly revealed Him as the Messiah and ultimate Prophet. Discover how Jesus' fulfillment of centuries old prophecy with stunning precision serves as powerful evidence for who Jesus is—and why His identity still demands a response today.

Jesus' Triumphal Entry publicly revealed Him as the Messiah and ultimate Prophet. Discover how Jesus' fulfillment of centuries old prophecy with stunning precision serves as powerful evidence for who Jesus is—and why His identity still demands a response today.

We begin our last week of preparation walking with Jesus as he enters Jerusalem to the praise of an adoring crowd. Looking at all that transpires between this triumphal entry and Jesus' death we notice such Grace, patience, fortitude and forgiveness from our Victorious Christ. We also see people whose understanding is incomplete and who 'know not what they do' - be it shouts of "Hosanna!" or shouts of "Crucify!" Let us take time this week to meditate on Jesus' life, character, and the hope held out in the gospel. Prepare for this week's teaching by reading Luke 19:28-44. For your continued pursuit, use our Holy Week Devotional for daily readings and join us for our Good Friday Service at 5:30pm or 7:00pm

On Palm Sunday Jesus didn't come as a conquering hero but as a peaceful king, fulfilling ancient prophecy in the most unexpected way. Christ offers something deeper than political victory: true peace with God. Jesus is the King who reveals false worship, restores broken worship, and receives humble worship.

Mark shares a message from the Palm Sunday story. Jesus' power was matched by a surprising characteristic. Luke 19:28-42 Reflection Questions: 1. Read the scripture passage above. What stands out to you today? 2. Why do you think the Pharisees wanted Jesus to rebuke his disciples? 3. Reread verses 41-42. What do you think was behind Jesus' tears? 4. What from the sermon has stayed with you- either encouraging, confusing, or confronting? 5. Mark shared a quote from Voltaire. “In the beginning God created man in His own image, and man has been trying to repay the favor ever since.” How might you/we be guilty of this in our own lives? 6. Respond to that notion that transformation occurs when power is matched by vulnerability. Do you agree? How might we see this in our world? As we head toward Easter, linger with the message from Palm Sunday - Jesus is a surprising Savior. Ask for the willingness and awareness to see Jesus in the combination of vulnerability and power.

Jesus doesn't drift toward the cross, He walks there with His face set and His purpose clear. From Luke 19:28–40, we follow the Triumphal Entry and see a King who arrives in humility on a donkey while the crowd shouts praise and the Pharisees demand silence. The scene is Palm Sunday beauty with Good Friday weight, because Jesus knows exactly what Jerusalem means.We unpack three anchors for everyday faith: the intent of Jesus is firm, the authority of Jesus is sure, and the worship of Jesus is inevitable. That road to Calvary is not a last-minute fix or a backup plan. Scripture ties it together from Genesis 3 to Isaiah 53 to Revelation's picture of the Lamb, showing that redemption has been on God's heart from before the foundation of the world. If you've ever wondered whether God's love is personal, this passage answers with a Savior who chooses the cross on your behalf.Then Luke's “small” detail becomes a big comfort: Jesus directs two disciples to a colt and everything happens exactly as He said. The same Jesus who rules the universe also rules the overlooked moments, which means you can trust Him with the “big” crisis and the “small” prayer request. Finally, we face Jesus' words, “If these were silent, the very stones would cry out,” and we talk honestly about misdirected worship, the danger of worshiping people, and the certainty of Philippians 2 that every knee will bow.Listen, share this with someone who needs hope, and then subscribe and leave a review. What part of your life needs to turn back into worship today?

On Palm Sunday Graham reflects on the hope we can have in Jesus and what it means to welcome Him as our king. (Matthew 21: 1-11)

Mike explains from John 12v17-22 that the signs in the Gospel of John are important and prove that Jesus is the Messiah. Mike shows how the Jews were expecting a different type of Messiah and this clouded their judgement when considering Jesus and His miracles.

Mark 11:1-11

In this sermon, Pastor Nathan describes the heart attitude with which Jesus raised his dead friend, grieved over Jerusalem, and ultimately gave His life for the love of the world.

Homily - Palm Sunday - Jesus Christ Must Be Praised

Jesus, the Paradoxical King. Matthew 21: 1-11. April 13, 2025. Chad Reeves.

Today marks the beginning of Holy Week - Jesus enters Jerusalem on His way to the cross. The disciples and the crowds don't understand, they have a completely different perspective on all the things happening in what to them is the yearly celebration of Passover. Pages 17-18 of our 40 days guide gives space for you to walk with Jesus from Palm Sunday, to the cross, culminating with Easter Monday. Carve out time this week for extra prayer, study, and fellowship with your Savior to deepen your understanding of all that He accomplished each day of this very intentional and purposeful week.

Sanjay Merchant introduces Palm Sunday by contrasting Jesus's humble "Triumphal Entry" into Jerusalem with the grand Roman triumphs of generals like Julius Caesar. While Roman triumphs were lavish, military parades celebrating conquest and power, Jesus enters on a donkey, fulfilling prophecy and displaying a radically different kind of kingship marked by humility and divine authority. The message challenges conventional ideas of greatness, showing that true triumph in God's kingdom looks nothing like worldly glory. #PalmSunday #JesusTheKing #HumbleTriumph #BiblicalProphecy #KingdomOfGod

Scripture: Matthew 21:1-11, Mark 11:1-11, Luke 19:28-44, John 12:12-19, Romans 11:25-26, Exodus 12:3. The Palm Sunday story is a familiar story with detail that is not well known. This event was a prophetic declaration not only to the first century but also to the twenty-first century! Palm Sunday - Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem on a donkey to the shouts of “Hosanna” the weekend before his crucifixion death and resurrection. All four Gospels record this event - each one offers a unique perspective. Pastor puts the four author's writings together in a way that shows a host of detail about what it meant then and what it means now. Pastor Dodge takes a deeper look into the following topics, sharing the New Testament coverage of the event with the prophetic words of this very event from the Old Testament in Zechariah, Psalms, Exodus, Deuteronomy and others. We will see this event as fulfillment of what had been biblically predicted: Setting Timing Donkey Hosanna Opposition Weeping Return Jesus shares prophetically in these words: “For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'” And we read this in Romans 11:25 “I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in, and in this way all Israel will be saved.” The day is coming when the Jewish people will receive Jesus as their Messiah. We can see this now: 23 - in 1948 the nation of Israel was established in a single day, a nation that had not existed for almost 19 full centuries. In 1948 there were 23 Jewish believers in the Messiah. 2000- and in 1948 there were 2000 Jewish believers in the whole world 30,000 - today there are 30,000 Jewish believers in Messiah in Israel 1,000,000 - and Jewish believers around the world and growing. Something dramatic has happened - the Jewish people are coming to recognize Jesus as their Messiah and Savior. It mean the very thing Jesus predicted is taking place in our day and the King is coming back!! This account from the New Testament is an historic account. One that summons us to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, one that calls us to recognize that God is in control, one that helps us understand that the Lord's desire is that we know Him, that we be filled with His Holy Spirit and that we be part of the great assembly of believers who will ultimately welcome our King - because THE KING IS COMING BACK!

Brother Nick looks at how the whole story of the Bible points to Jesus, especially this last week of Palm Sunday.

This Palm Sunday sermon explores the five facets of Jesus as king – sovereign, humble, saving, worthy, and compassionate – urging us to behold him as a person requiring a relationship with us.

Up To Jerusalem - Teaching 3 Scripture - Luke 19:11-27, John 12:1-11, Psalm 45:4, 6-8, Mark 14:10-11, Hebrews 1:8-9 Jesus has set his face toward Jerusalem and will carry out  the heavenly Father's will. People were expecting the Kingdom of God to appear suddenly - political deliverance - a great king to rule - but Jesus continued to emphasize the difficulties that lie ahead as well as the glory that would come in the future.  Today's teaching begins with the Parable of the Mina. A mina is equivalent to 3-4 months pay. The story tells of a king and 10 servants, each are given a mina, the king goes away and then returns asking for an accounting of the mines each had been given. In this parable - Jesus is trying to show how he too will go away. The kingdom of God is coming - but the final fulfillment is in the future - His second return.  But while the king is away and we await His return - those of us that follow Him are called to wisely use what He has given us.   As Jesus continues heading “Up to Jerusalem” He stops in the town of Bethany to dine with friends: Mary, Martha, Lazarus and others. Just weeks earlier Jesus had raised Lazarus from the dead. During the meal, Mary pores expensive perfume on Jesus' feet - perfume worth about 1 year's wage. Judas speaks up that it was a waste of money that could have/should have gone to the poor, but Jesus speaks up in Mary's defense saying, “You will always have the poor but you will not always have Me.” Anointing with perfume had remarkable application and significance for devout Jewish people in the 1st century. They were eagerly anticipating the arrival of the Messiah - Messiah means the Anointed One and now Mary anoints Jesus. She even wipes His feet with her hair - showing complete surrender - she gave Jesus everything, possibly even her life savings in this act of devotion.  On the next day Jesus would be riding into Jerusalem on a donkey as their king to the cheers of Hosanna (Save Us!) - as Mary does the symbolic, prophetic act of anointing Jesus, she's not just showing devotion to Him and not just preparing His body for death, she is announcing to all that He's her King, she serves Him and that He is the fulfillment of the Scriptures. Judas is angered so much by Mary's act that he goes to the chief priests to betray Jesus. These chief priests had seen the miraculous healings, they knew of Jesus raising Lazarus, and they knew what people were saying about Jesus, but their own hearts were hardened. They wanted to kill Jesus and Lazarus as well. Mere recognition of something being true doesn't always change the heart and mind, only God changes them. Only when we encounter Jesus for who He really is are we then changed and that is an action of God. This is why we are called to be humble before God, to believe and repent and to follow him. The next day (Palm Sunday) Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey. Did He still smell of the perfume Mary had put on Him? He was hailed with Hosannas and the waving of palm branches. Riding in on a donkey was a symbol of peace. Something else was coinciding with Jesus coming into Jerusalem on this specific day. This was the 10th Day of Nissan for the Jewish people, which was the day that all the lambs that would be sacrificed for the Passover in 4 days were herded into Jerusalem. The very day that Jesus, the Sacrificial Lamb of God, also enters the city. This is not a coincidence.And 4 days later as the lambs were slaughtered for the Passover meals to celebrate their freedom from bondage to Egypt, Jesus would be hung on the cross shedding His blood for our freedom from sin's bondage. Nothing here is coincidental. Jesus is the fulfillment of all the Father has promised!! 3 Key Events that lead to Jesus' arrest, death and crucifixion:     ⁃    Resurrection of Lazarus     ⁃    Anointing by Mary     ⁃    Jesus in the temple courts These three incidents enraged the chief priests and were the final straw in their desire to get rid of Him earlier than originally planned.  We will pick up next week with the cleansing of the temple.  Our website –  https://www.awakeusnow.com Watch the video from our website! https://www.awakeusnow.com/2-year-study-of-the-gospels-upper Watch the video from our YouTube Channel!! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTaaqrC3dMOzMkhPyiNWwlJRpV6Bwpu01 Up to Jerusalem is a study of the final weeks of Jesus' ministry concluding with His resurrection and ascension, using the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John together with material from ancient sources and recent discoveries.  Up to Jerusalem is part four of our Two Year Study of the Gospels. Up To Jerusalem is the story of the plan of God to redeem the world, and the story of a Savior willing to obey the Father's plan. As we study Jesus' final days, we will be impacted as we discover the Love of God for each one of us.  This study is great for large group, small group or home group study and can be started at any time.

Join us as Pastor Kevin resumes our journey through the Gospel of Luke by looking at a passage Christians are accustomed to studying the week of Palm Sunday—Jesus's triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Today we'll look at the details of this familiar story and what they say about us and a God who wants to draw near and carry our burdens.Scripture: Luke 19:29-44

Everybody loves the popular, powerful and successful Jesus. They are singing songs and imprinting their preferences on Jesus.  The problem with this great support is that it is a mile wide but only an inch deep. Jesus will continue to show this same crowd who He really is over the next week.  There will be sacrifice, teaching, suffering, love, death and a resurrection, all within the confines of one, GREAT week.Subscribe to not miss a day of it. https://youtu.be/1XD85_JjbDk

This teaching is from Matthew 26:1-28. As we come to these final chapters of Matthew we are exploring the final days of Jesus' ministry on earth; His time with the disciples, His suffering, His death, His resurrection.  These are days that truly have changed the world and that's not hyperbole - it's fact. In today's reading - Jesus tells the disciples yet again of His coming crucifixion. He continues to let them know what's coming and what's ahead so that when it happens they will remember He had told them these things and they can then begin to put the pieces together. In verses 3-5 we read of the chief priests and elders scheming to arrest Jesus secretly and kill Him. But they decide to wait until after the Passover festival is over to avoid rioting by the crowds that are in Jerusalem during the festival time frame. BUT something happens to change their minds from that decision to a decision of “let's do it now!” It is no coincidence the timing of what's coming for Jesus in the timing of the Passover Festival.  The day before Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem - what we call Palm Sunday - Jesus is at a dinner at Simon the Leper's home. While Jesus is dining, Mary pours perfume on Jesus' head. When the disciples call it a waste of money that could have gone to the poor, Jesus says, “When she poured this perfume on my head and body, she did it to prepare me for burial.” Yet another way of letting the disciples know what's to come. Next we read about the reason the Chief Priests change their minds to arresting Jesus earlier than originally planned.  Judas, one of the disciples, comes to them and asks what they would give him for delivering Jesus one to them. He was given 30 pieces of silver and then began to watch for the opportune time to hand Jesus to them. As the day for the Passover meal approaches, the disciples ask Jesus where He wants to make preparations to eat the meal. They gather around the table of an upper room for the Passover meal at the place the disciples had secured according to Jesus' directions. During the meal, Jesus mentions more clues of what is to come, “My appointed time is near.” During the dinner Jesus announces, “Truly, I tell you, one of you will betray Me” and gives a harsh word of judgement.  As the Passover meal continues, Jesus institutes the “Lord's Supper” as a New Covenant. He takes the bread and wine of the Passover meal and reveals Himself as the Passover Lamb, the body (bread) and blood (wine) of the Passover Lamb meal. There are multiple correlations between the Passover Festival activities and activities of Jesus during His last week on earth. Jesus is the perfect, unblemished Lamb of God.

Palm Sunday   Jesus, our coming King:   1. Is Humble and Victorious 2. Is the God who saves 3. Heals the exile      

In Sunday's sermon, Pastor Erik Lindeen draws from personal stories to encourage cultivating a childlike faith in Jesus. He reflects on Jesus's triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a donkey during Palm Sunday, noting how Jesus's mission was not only to free the Jewish people but to liberate all humanity from the curse of sin. He reminds us that Jesus is more attractive than religion. Erik advises his listeners not to strive for immediate understanding but to wrestle with questions, doubts, and gradually seek wisdom. It's ok to not understand right away. He compares this process to the disciples' experience, as they, too, did not comprehend Jesus's teachings instantly. Erik encourages us to embrace wonder and playfulness as avenues of worship, particularly during the Easter season, suggesting that embracing awe can enrich one's relationship with God. This sermon aims to reorient focus towards Jesus over empty religious rituals, advocating instead for true connection, obedience, and awe-filled worship.

In this weeks episode, Pastor Dom talks about the incredible sacrifice of Jesus. Isaiah 5:20 NKJV20 Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness;…Luke 23:13-25  NKJV13 Then Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people, 14 said to them, “You have brought this Man to me, as one who misleads the people. And indeed, having examined Him in your presence, I have found no fault in this Man concerning those things of which you accuse Him; 15 no, neither did Herod, for I sent you back to him; and indeed nothing deserving of death has been done by Him. 16 I will therefore chastise  Him and release Him” 17 (for it was necessary for him to release one to them at the feast).18 And they all cried out at once, saying, “Away with this Man, and release to us Barabbas”— 19 who had been thrown into prison for a certain rebellion made in the city, and for murder. 20 Pilate, therefore, wishing to release Jesus, again called out to them. 21 But they shouted, saying, “Crucify Him, crucify Him!” 22 Then he said to them the third time, “Why, what evil has He done? I have found no reason for death in Him. I will therefore chastise Him and let Him go.” 23 But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices that He be crucified. And the voices of these men and of the chief priests prevailed. 24 So Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they requested. 25 And he released to them the one they requested, who for rebellion and murder had been thrown into prison; but he delivered Jesus to their will.Proverbs 29:25 NKJV25 The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safeProverbs 13:20 NLV20 …associate with fools and get in trouble.1 Peter 2:22 New Living Translation22 He never sinned, nor ever deceived anyone.James 4:17 NLV17 Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.Romans 12:2 NKJV2 And do not be conformed to this world,2 Timothy 2:15 NLV15 Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval. Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth.John 8:44 NKJVYou are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do.1 John 3:1 NKJV3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.Matthew 10:32 KJV32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.Romans 3:23  NKJV23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 6:23 NKJV23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJV21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.Romans 5:8 NKJV8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.John 3:16 NLT16 “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.

Palm Sunday - Jesus' Triumphal Entry & Hope based off of Zechariah 9:9-12 & Matthew 21:1-9.

From the series "Jesus People: Recapturing Radical Discipleship in the Book of Mark." Pastor Luke teaches on Palm Sunday from Mark's account of Jesus entering Jerusalem in Mark 11.

In this special Palm Sunday episode of "A Conversation on...", we explore the theme of value in the context of Jesus's journey towards the crucifixion. Our sermon prep team shares a mix of personal anecdotes, reflections on wedding day calmness, and the humorous reality of what's found in a church's storage closet, seamlessly transitioning into a deeper discussion on the significance of Palm Sunday. We delve into Jesus's actions and teachings during his final week, emphasizing His sacrifice for us and the foundational belief in our inherent worth to God. This conversation not only highlights the importance of understanding and feeling valued by Jesus but also invites listeners to reflect on the ways in which we value ourselves and others. Through stories of Jesus's interactions with individuals like the Samaritan woman and Zacchaeus, we uncover the difference between being loved out of obligation and being genuinely liked and pursued by Jesus. Join us as we navigate through the themes of love, value, and the impact of Jesus's chosen actions over obligatory ones, leading up to a powerful message on inclusivity and servanthood as demonstrated by Jesus's example.
