As you open to Matthew 21, you open your Bibles to the start of the greatest week since our Universe was spoken into existence by its Creator.
On this day, Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem at the time the Passover lambs were chosen.
He proclaimed Himself as the Promised Messiah by riding on a donkey as prophesied in Daniel 9, coming from the East.
But His true kingship would be demonstrated when He was sacrificed on the Cross as God’s Lamb.
Palm Sunday is a time of great invitation.
On this day Jews of Christ's time, had to choose a lamb to cover their sins, and so on this day we also need to choose our Lamb.
*Jesus the Lamb of God*
Palm Sunday was the day all of Israel had to pick their Passover lamb.
Over a million people came up to Jerusalem each year to celebrate the great Feast of the Passover.
In AD 30 Passover was on Saturday and so all of the people had to pick a lamb the Sunday before Passover (Palm Sunday) so they could keep that lamb with them 4 days as detailed in Exodus 12.
So Jesus came from the East, and passed by the Sheep Gate where all the Passover Lambs were being washed and prepared by thousands of families on that Sunday.
Just as in the 1st Palm Sunday, some chose Christ and others didn’t, so we have a choice today.
Have you chosen Jesus as your Lamb?
You can, just bow your heart before Him right now and admit to God that you need an offering for your sins to be forgiven and that Jesus is the Lamb that you choose!
