Hosanna
Pastor Todd Blansit
March 28, 2021
This is the week of hope.
His (Jesus) teaching is strong, persuasive, and rings with truth.
Matthew 21:1-11
This is the first time Israel called Jesus King.
The word Hosanna means “please save us”
Psalm 118.25-29
Experience Him
We come to know Jesus when we experience being in His presence.
So the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them. — Matthew 21:6
No doubt. No defiance. No delay. They just went and did!
It was an act of obedience to Jesus.
Too many Christ-followers today let what they think take priority over His actual commands.
Our lives should make people ask, “what is it about them?”
Do you and I have any less reason to praise Jesus; to shout our own hosannas today?
Luke 23.13-25
When our worship isn’t based on true change but an emotional experience, we too can easily forget to praise him no matter our circumstances.
