Devotions: Ps 89; Isa 63:1-6; 1 Tim 1:1-17; Mk 11:1-11
Ethan the Ezrahite wrote: I will sing of Your love forever, YHWH! Your steadfast love and faithfulness are eternal and trustworthy. Let all creation fear our God, Ruler of all spiritual and material realities. Your throne is founded on righteousness and holiness, Your actions filled with love and kindness. All human authority springs from You, and I obey them because they are instituted of God. God keeps His covenants and cares for His chosen ones. But we are fitful in our faith, and periodically, God lets us experience the consequences of our sin and rebellion—then we languish. Keep us in Your care, great Lord; remember that we are mortal and short-lived. Blessed by YHWH forever! Amen.
God Himself executes judgment: He is our Shepherd and our Judge; when human authorities fail, God undertakes for His people. Let us all testify to His steadfast love and faithfulness.
Paul, writing to Timothy: Grace, mercy and love from God our Father and our Lord Jesus the Messiah! Our goal in teaching is to foster love from pure hearts, a good conscience, and sincere faith. Beyond that range lie speculations that do more harm than good. We have God’s grace in the Person and message of Jesus; the law remains, but now pertains to the lawless and disobedient. Let us focus on the glorious gospel of the blessed God!
As Jesus and His party approached Jerusalem, He sent two men to get an unridden donkey colt for Him to ride into the city. As He did this, a great crowd acclaimed Him, spreading their garments and palm fronds on the way before Him, and crying, ‘Hosanna! Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the kingdom of our ancestor David, here arriving! Hosanna in the highest!’ Jesus came into the city and went directly to the temple; He looked around at everything, then went out to Bethany to spend the night.
