[Palm Sunday] "You Did Not Know the Time of Your Visitation" (LUKE 19:28-44) (1.) [v.28-34] Although Jesus had entered the city of Jerusalem several times before on foot, on this final occasion He needed to enter differently. He needed a young colt to ride on, fulfilling the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9, identifying Himself as the humble King who comes in the humility, fragility, and peace of a weak colt instead of the pride, power, and might of a warhorse stallion. Jesus needs a colt, not a stallion. Do you know what Jesus needs? What is the “colt” that Jesus needs in your life? When He takes it, are you asking like the owners of the colt, “Why are you untying/taking that which is mine?” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (2.) [v.35-40] Jesus needed a chosen colt because He wanted a genuine worshipper. If they remained silent, even the very stones would cry out to worship and praise Jesus for who He was as the Savior/Hosanna entering the city to lay down His life at the cross as the perfect sacrificial offering for all sins. Do you know what Jesus wants as He draws near to you? If you stay silent, what is creation shouting in your place? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (3.) [v.41-42] Jesus’ final entry into Jerusalem wasn’t all smiles and joy, but also filled with tears and weeping at the approaching rejection and spiritual blindness of the multitudes. Jesus weeps over this. Do you know what Jesus feels, what makes His eyes swell with tears? How quickly does our “Praise Jesus!” turn to “Crucify Jesus!”? When have you traded Christ’s peace for your own blindness? What is making Jesus weep as He draws near to you? Do you weep too? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (4.) [v.43-44] Because Jerusalem failed to know the time of Jesus’ visit, there would come days of judgment and suffering, which Jesus already knows. Do you know what Jesus knows, that He is visiting you daily? Are you missing His multiple visits? [Korean translation] “네가 보살핌 받는 날을 알지 못함을 인함이니라” (누가복음 19장 28-44절) (1.) [28-34절] 예수께서는 이전에도 여러 번 걸어서 예루살렘 성에 들어가셨지만, 마지막으로 들어가실 때는 다른 방법이 필요하셨습니다. 그분은 어린 망아지를 타고 오셔야 했습니다. 이는 스가랴 9장 9절의 예언을 성취하는 것으로, 자신을 전쟁터에서 활약하는 위풍당당한 숫말의 힘과 위엄이 아닌, 연약하고 부드러운 망아지의 모습으로 오시는 겸손한 왕으로 나타내시는 것입니다. 예수님께는 숫말이 아닌 어린 망아지가 필요하셨습니다. 여러분은 예수님께 무엇이 필요하신지 아십니까? 여러분의 삶에서 예수님께 필요한 "어린 망아지"는 무엇입니까? 그분께서 그 망아지를 데려가실 때, 여러분은 마치 망아지 주인처럼 "어찌하여 내 것을 가져가십니까?"라고 묻고 있습니까? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (2.) [35-40절] 예수님께서는 진정한 예배자를 원하셨기에 택하신 어린 나귀가 필요하셨습니다. 만일 그들이 침묵한다면, 돌멩이들조차도 예수님이 누구신지, 곧 구원자이시며 호산나로서 도시에 입성하시어 십자가에서 모든 죄를 위한 완전한 희생 제물이 되셨음을 찬양하며 예배할 것입니다. 예수님께서 당신에게 가까이 오실 때, 당신은 예수님께서 무엇을 원하시는지 알고 있습니까? 만일 당신이 침묵한다면, 피조물들은 당신을 대신하여 무엇을 외치고 있습니까? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (3.) [41-42절] 예수께서 예루살렘에 마지막으로 입성하실 때에는 미소와 기쁨만 가득했던 것이 아니라, 다가오는 무리의 거부와 영적인 눈먼 상태를 보며 눈물과 통곡으로 가득 차 있었습니다. 예수께서는 이것 때문에 우셨습니다. 여러분은 예수께서 어떤 마음이셨는지, 무엇 때문에 그분의 눈에 눈물이 고였는지 아십니까? 우리의 "예수님을 찬양하라!"가 얼마나 빨리 "예수님을 십자가에 못 박으라!"로 바뀌는지 아십니까? 언제 그리스도의 평화를 자신의 영적인 눈먼 상태와 맞바꾸었습니까? 예수께서 여러분에게 가까이 오실 때 무엇 때문에 우셨습니까? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (4.) [43-44절] 예루살렘이 예수님의 방문 시기를 알지 못했기 때문에 심판과 고난의 날들이 올 것이었고, 예수님은 이미 그 날들을 알고 계셨습니다. 예수님께서 아시는 것, 즉 그분이 매일 당신을 찾아오신다는 사실을 당신은 알고 있습니까? 그분의 수많은 방문을 놓치고 있습니까? *KINGDOM EXPANSION PRAYER – This week’s Kingdom expansion prayers will focus on the final week 7 of this Lenten season devotional, “Holy Week” Scripture: And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!” (MATTHEW 21:9) So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!” (JOHN 12:13) And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written, “Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt!” (JOHN 12:14-15) And those who went before and those who followed were shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!” (MARK 11:9-10) Prayer (by Pastor Chester): Heavenly Father, we rejoice with You yet also weep with You on this holy Palm Sunday, recalling both the joy and tears flowing down on the face of Your only eternal Son our Lord Jesus, our Hosanna Savior, as He entered the city one final time knowing what lied ahead – rejection, suffering, and the cross. Show us the holiness of Christ as we enter this holy passion week. No one takes Your life from You, Lord Jesus, but You laid it down on Your own accord. You have authority to lay it down. You have authority to take it up again! You sovereignly purposed the cross as the greatest demonstration of Your love, for while we were still sinners, You died for us. So as we raise our palm branches of praise and come out to greet You today, may You find a genuine worshipper who cries, “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord, the promised King to God’s people, the promised eternal Son to David! Behold, our King is coming, righteous and having salvation, humble and mounted on a colt!” Let us shout Hosanna – that You are our only Savior to save us from our sins, save us from our impending death, save us from the wrath of the final judgment to come! Let not our cries turn from praising You to crucifying You, but to trusting You and walking with You in the way of the cross, where we die to sin and live to righteousness, whereby Your wounds we find healing, whereby Your blood we are reconciled to You and one another. Bless our final week of holy week devotions with fasting and prayer. Bless our 9:30am breakfast fellowship with early worshippers. Bless our Palm Sunday discussion time & breaking of bread with joyful reflections. Bless the Officers today as they gather to plan and pray for Your church. Bless this Good Friday’s worship with renewed joy at the foot of the cross. Bless the tables/chairs setup this Saturday with our godly servants. Bless next Sunday’s join Easter worship with our children, holy communion, dessert ministry & April birthday blessings, Oh Happy Day fellowship with sounds of rejoicing in Christ’s resurrection. Bless all the precious life growing in the womb among us and Your creation sister Selene in nurture and growth. In the risen name of the One who bears the name of this church He founded, our Hosanna in the highest, our risen Lord Jesus Christ, receive Your welcome and praises with our palm branches lifted to the highest, Amen & amen.
