Palm Sunday...starting a week with joy that turns to despair but ends with victory.

John 12:13
“”They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna!d”
“Blessed is he who comes”
“in the name of the Lord!”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”

1 Chronicles 5:20
“He answered their prayers, because they trusted in Him.”

Now...the question is...do I trust Him enough to do what His word says; to love Him and love the people of this world. Prayers change when His Great Commandment is at the center.

We are imperfect human beings reaching out to our perfect God ... and the amazing part is that He listens.

Daniel 9:18
“We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.”

Today is in the past. You did the best you could. There is no need to dwell on the things you had no control over. Tomorrow is another day...full of opportunities to do better.

Be not afraid.
Help the helpless.
Speak for the silenced.
Defend the down and out.
Feed the poor.
Clothe the needy.
Put an arm around the hurting.
Follow Jesus’ example and love courageously.

“Fear keeps us from experiencing God’s great work in our lives. Faith gives us the courage to see His work come to fruition.”

Humbling ourselves before almighty God is a wise and healthy exercise...Kings have not and lost everything.

“(King Belshazzar - you) have not humbled yourself, though you knew all this (what God had done).” - Daniel 5:22

When there’s trouble in a nation, God doesn’t point His finger at the government, He looks at His people.
When God wants to send a spiritual awakening, it doesn’t start in the White House; it starts in His House. And it should start in your house.
(2 Chron.7:14)

Faith isn’t believing God can ... it’s knowing He will. Isaiah 43
