SUNDAY INSPIRATION and PRAYER

April 10, 2022.

Jesus was in the centre of the procession and the people all around Him were shouting, "Praise God for the Son of David! Blessings on the One who comes in the Name of The Lord!"

Matthew 21:9

NLT Bible

Today, believers around the world celebrate Palm Sunday. On that day, our Saviour rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, while crowds paved the road with palm branches and sang praises to Him. Sadly, in just a week, many of them would be part of the crowd that would cry out for Him to be crucified. This day also signals the start of Holy Week leading up to the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus. It's a time when we reflect on the agony and suffering that Jesus willingly endured for us.

 

Just as there were so many back then who sang praises to Jesus, there are countless people today who celebrate this day simply going through the motions without fully understanding the magnitude of what He did for us. Jesus suffered and endured unimaginable agony because of His love for us. Today, we need to pause and internalize all that He did for us, for it's because of Him, our sins are forgiven and we have the promise of eternal life.

Thank you Lord for sending Your Son. I praise and bless Your holy Name. Today I remember all that You did for me and my heart is filled with praise and gratitude. I love you, Jesus. Amen!

Be Blessed!
