Think of the celebration this must have been….Jesus entering Jerusalem. The people gathered around to watch as Jesus rode upon the donkey. There were people who were excited to see Him, yet there were people who wondered who Jesus was.
Jesus was a celebrity to the people and those who followed Him. They knew Him as a teacher, healer, prophet, and leader. How might we react if Jesus were to parade through our community? Would we recognize Him? Would it be a huge celebration? Is Jesus a celebrity for you?
Bible Text: Matthew 21:1-11
Key Verse: The crowds that went ahead of him and that followed were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest heaven!” Matthew 21:9
