Journey To The Resurrection.

Yet To Be # 307 – Remembered in our hearts all ways not just at Easter.

What is the significance of Palm Sunday?

It is a Christian celebration with its origin in Biblical times.

Matthew 21 verses 1 to 9 and John 12 verses 12 to 16.

And when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, Tell ye the daughter of Zion, behold, thy king cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. Isaiah 62 verse 11.

Jesus traveled through the city of Jerusalem on a simple donkey. The crowds cast palm branches along his path, crying Hosanna in the highest.

Hosanna means Pray, save us.

In Biblical times a King would ride into the city on a horse as a symbol of war, but when he entered the city on a donkey, it was considered a symbol of peace.

Jesus riding on the donkey is seen as the Messiah coming to his people in peace.

He came to seek and to save that which was lost. Luke 19 verse 10

Public Journey to the Cross Part One is to be remembered not only at Easter but in our hearts all ways.

Jehovah – Jireh – God will provide.

The Lord dows not let the rigtheous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. Proverbs 10 verse 3

Titles of Jehovah: The Lord Will Provide

Jehovah – Jireh – Jehovah our Provider

Yet To Be # 306

Different titles of Jehovah describe his office and his character. As a child of God, he is our Father, and daily as we turn the pages of the holy scriptures we learn more about him. 

In those pages, we know of eternal life and what it cost the Father to send his only begotten son to die for us. 

We also know of the price his son paid to redeem us back to God the Father. 

In his title, we glance at a small part of him, a small part of him he wants to share.

Jehovah – Jireh – Jehovah will provide.

He is the Provider.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. Psalm 84 verse 11

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4 verse 19.

And Abraham called the name fo that place Jehovah – jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen. Genesis 22 verse 14.

Easter and the Christ

What about the Easter Egg?

Yet To Be #305

Some Historical Facts about Easter

Hope and Faith

Easter in Christianity is a celebration of the resurrection of Christ.

This time is about his victory over death, Hell, Satan, and the grave.

His death, burial, and resurrection are all contemplated along with his life while here on earth,

The Easter egg represents new life and rebirth. Early Christians in Mesopotamia dyed eggs red to symbolize the blood of Jesus.

And Jesus said “I am the resurrection and the life.” John 11 verse 25.

God’s Word is Yes and Amen

Yet TO BE # 304

The Lord is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

His benefits and blessings are renewed every day.

Of his lovingkindness, there is no end.

Trust him where you cannot trace him, where things seem bleak.

When the way seems dim.

When the path to walk looks dark, impassible.

There is no God like him.

There is no help like his aid.

Take that leap of faith and trust in a God who fulfills all his promises.

A God whose love is everlasting.

And his word is yea and amen.

For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. Jeremiah 17 verse 8.

No matter the circumstances.

No matter what is happening in the world today; war or rumors of war, poor economy, inflation or natural disasters;

God will see us through.

He protects his own.

He cares for his children.

He will never leave us or forsake us.

The Lord is Your Hope…

The Lord is Hope.

In him, we have everything we need.

With arms wide open he never refuses;

And never disappoints.

And then we will realize, we lack nothing.

Because we are blessed.

Neither Good or Bad

Yet To Be # 299

They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.  Jeremiah 10 verse 5.

Some people are good, and in all appearances, they do well.

They are not the ones to fear.

They will do nothing; they will say nothing, nor do they see anything.

They have no life within them.

They will neither be against you or be for you.

They are like a vapor; here, one moment, then gone the next as if the vapor never existed.
