Palm Sunday | The Message of Jesus in Disturbing Times

From Luke 19

📖 Luke 19:11 ESV  As they heard these things, he proceeded to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they supposed that the kingdom of God was to appear immediately.

1. Jesus rules over of my life.

📖 Luke 19:29-31 ESV When he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples, 30 saying, “Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say this: ‘The Lord has need of it.’ ”

📖 Luke 19:32-34 ESV So those who were sent went away and found it just as He had told them. 33 And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?” 34 And they said, “The Lord has need of it.”

📖 Zechariah 9:9 ESV Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

There are 3 to the things in life:

1. If there is God then bad events .

2. If the things you, ?

3 Jesus took on the of all.

2. Jesus knows every problem points to a answer.

📖 Luke 19:37-38 ESV As he was drawing near—already on the way down the Mount of Olives—the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, 38 saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

📖 John 12:13 ESV So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him…

📖 Mark 11:9 ESVAnd those who went before and those who followed were shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!

📖 Luke 19:39 ESV And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”

📖 Luke 19:40 ESV He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”

📖 Luke 19:41-42 ESV And when he drew near and saw the city, he wept over it, 42 saying, “Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. 

Sometimes what we to in life can blind us to the God us. 

3. Jesus offers person an from God’s perfect .

📖 Luke 19:43-44 ESV For the days will come upon you, when your enemies will set up a barricade around you and surround you and hem you in on every side 44 and tear you down to the ground, you and your children within you. And they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know the time of your visitation.”

📖 John 5:24 ESV Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
