The purpose of Palm Sunday!

“Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain. He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.” John 12:24-25

Greetings on Palm Sunday! Today we are commemorating Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. He comes as a triumphant King who will die to give you the gift of eternal life.

Jesus explains that He is like a grain of wheat which must fall into the ground and die. The act of dying will bring much new grain. The Cross was the only option for Jesus to draw people to Himself.

Like Jesus, you and I have to be willing to lose our life and reject the temptations of the world to inherit eternal life.

If you are serious about Jesus you will have to follow Him through the journey of death and resurrected life.

Jesus wants one thing from you. He wants you to be obedient to Him without any reservations or doubt.

This is very difficult because He will take you down a path which is the antithesis of the world and you will have to accept His ways by faith without any evidence or proof.

Jesus died to leave you with the Spirit, the Water, and the Blood. This is how you can live in the world but not be of the world.

The Spirit lives in you and He fill you with the life of Jesus, the Water creates new life, and the Blood forgives all your sins.

Rejoice and celebrate Palm Sunday. It is God’s gift to you!
