As we look forward to the coming week, let's reflect on what Jesus has done for us all:

Palm Sunday: The King Has Come

This Sunday we celebrate Palm Sunday—the moment Jesus publicly revealed Himself as the promised Messiah.

As Jesus entered Jerusalem, riding on a donkey, the crowds shouted: Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!

This was not symbolic hype—this was fulfillment.

Jesus was intentionally declaring: I am the King. I am the One you have been waiting for.

He fulfilled prophecy (Zechariah 9:9), entering not on a war horse, but on a donkey—showing He came in peace, humility, and salvation, not political power.

The people laid down palm branches and garments before Him—an act reserved for royalty. They recognized Him as King… but many misunderstood the kind of kingdom He came to establish.

They wanted a conquering king.
But Jesus came first as a Suffering Savior.


What Happens During Holy Week?

Palm Sunday begins what we call Holy Week — the most important week in human history.

Throughout this week, Jesus was:

Teaching daily in Jerusalem

Confronting religious hypocrisy

Preparing His disciples

And moving steadily toward the cross

He traveled back and forth between Bethany and Jerusalem, all during the time of Passover—a feast that remembered God delivering Israel from death through the blood of a lamb.


During Passover, Jesus—the true Lamb of God—was preparing to lay down His life.


From Palm Sunday to Resurrection Sunday

This entire week reveals God’s redemptive plan:

Palm Sunday → The King is revealed

Good Friday → The Lamb is sacrificed

Resurrection Sunday → The King conquers death


What began with celebration ended with a cross…. But the cross was never the end.

Jesus didn’t come to take a throne in Jerusalem—

He came to take your place on the cross.

Will you follow Jesus only when He meets your expectations…

or will you follow Him as Lord, even when we don’t understand His plan?

This week, don’t just observe Holy Week

enter into it.

Read it. Reflect on it. Walk with Jesus through it.

Because what He did this week….

He did for you.
