“Hosanna, Save Now”

 

We are approaching the most important celebration

for the follower of Christ.

This Sunday,

we celebration Christ’s Triumphal Entry.

The next Sunday,

the Resurrection of Christ.

And the powerful events in between.

The prophet Zechariah prophesied that the Messiah

the delivering King would come.

The King would come GENTLE and riding a colt of a donkey.

The word in the Greek is “praus”

which means meek or humble.

Don’t under estimate the power of meekness.

Moses was a meek man.  Numbers 12:3 NIV

“Now Moses was a very humble man (meek),

more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.”

Jesus said, “the Meek shall inherit the earth.”

Matthew 5:5 also see Psalms 37:11

Meekness is not weakness.

Jesus is King and as He humbly road into Jerusalem,

 as the crowd shouted, “Hosanna”

Hosanna means “Save”

The crowd was crying save now, save now.

In John’s account,

we see that their cry for salvation

turned into a shout of praise.

Today, we need to be saved.

Our world, and even your life and mine,

needs more of the rule and reign of Christ.

Can I challenge you to cry out to God again!

Cry out Hosanna! Hosanna! Save now! Save now!

Ask God to come into your life and church,

in a powerful way these next two Sundays.

I am not against church programs to help people.

But a touch from Jesus can change a person in minutes.

We need more of God!

Pray He humbly comes riding into your life and your church

with such power that every life will be changed!

I am not talking about good worship and a good message.

I am talking about a visitation from the Lord!

Let’s get ready to celebrate the 8 day week.

Scripture Reading

Matthew 21:1-11 NIV

21:1 As they approached Jerusalem

and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives,

Jesus sent two disciples,

2 saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you,

and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her.

Untie them and bring them to me.

3 If anyone says anything to you, tell him that the Lord needs them,

and he will send them right away." 

4 This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

5 "Say to the Daughter of Zion,

'See, your king comes to you,

gentle and riding on a donkey,

on a colt, the foal of a donkey.'"  

6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them.

7 They brought the donkey and the colt, placed their cloaks on them,

and Jesus sat on them.

8 A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road,

while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted,

"Hosanna to the Son of David!"

"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!"

"Hosanna in the highest!"

10 When Jesus entered Jerusalem,

the whole city was stirred and asked, "Who is this?"

11 The crowds answered,

"This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee."
