Our Lord Jesus Christ entered the city of Jerusalem seated on a donkey. In doing so, He fulfilled the prophecy found in the book of the Prophet ๐๐๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐ข๐๐ก ๐:๐: โ๐๐๐ฃ๐จ๐ข๐๐ ๐ ๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ฅ๐ฒ, ๐๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐๐ข๐จ๐ง! ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ, ๐๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐๐๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฆ! ๐๐๐, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ, ๐ซ๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐ข๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ, ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐ข๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ง ๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ค๐๐ฒ, ๐จ๐ง ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ญ, ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐๐ฅ ๐จ๐ ๐ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ค๐๐ฒ.โ This symbolises the ultimate act of humility and obedience to His Father. Our Lord knew very well what was to follow; His crucifixion. However, He was determined and willing to sacrifice His life on a Cross for my sake and for yours! Such was His purpose; He was not aiming at material or political gain, but at the salvation of our souls!
Today, as you reflect on Jesus Christ’s love for you personally, ask yourself, how have you responded to that love? May you give Him His proper position in your heart from now on, and, in other words, love Him for who He isโ the Saviour, the Deliverer, the Redeemer, and the King of kings!
