As we celebrate Palm Sunday (April 13th this year), remember that this day …
… not only marks the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-10; Luke 19:28-40; John 12:12-19) …
… not only sets in motion the events of the Passion week …
But this day commemorates the precise fulfillment of numerous Old Testament prophecies … even to the very date on the calendar!
Check out Zechariah 9:9 — “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; He is just and endowed with salvation, humble, and mounted on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”
When the OC Bereans studied the O.T. book of Daniel during early 2012, we discovered that the angel Gabriel delivered an extremely detailed and precise timetable for the future (Daniel 9:21-27). Based on what Gabriel stated in verses 25-26, we know that the predicted date for the “Triumphal Entry” of Jesus into Jerusalem would be the 10th of Nissan in A.D. 32, or 173,880 days from the Decree of Artaxerxes (Nehemiah 2:1)!
We are loved by … and we serve … an AMAZING God! … who has delivered to us an “integrated message system from outside our time and space domain” … revealing His character, His will, and even His calendar!
“Hosanna to the son of David. Blessed is the King that comes in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest. Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
Grace & Truth!
