Easter Sunday- He Is Risen

He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matthew 28:6

On the third day Jesus has risen from the dead, just as he promised. The stone has been rolled away, the tomb is empty, Jesus has conquered death forever. The resurrection power of God can’t be defeated, Satan is powerless against us, praise the Lord.

The resurrection is not only the most important day in humanity, as we now have eternal life thru Jesus Christ but it also has been prophesized throughout the Bible

(Acts 13:35) “Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

(Psalm 16:10) “For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.”

Prophecy of Psalm 16 was fulfilled as told in Acts 13. God promised he would not forsake Jesus and raise him from the dead.

(Matthew 22:44) “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool”

(Psalm 110:1) “The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”

The prophecy of Psalm 110 was also fulfilled as referenced also in Matthew 22. Jesus literally made all his enemies his footstool as he ascended into heaven.

 (Acts 13:33) “God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.”

(Psalm 2:7) “I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.”

The prophecy of Psalm 2:7 referenced in Acts 13 was also fulfilled. Jesus was raised from the dead just as God promised. The only begotten son, our Messiah lives forever.

As you celebrate Easter Sunday remember this is probably the biggest day for all man kind, Jesus resurrection not only fulfilled many prophecies but he has giving us eternal life thru his blood shed on the cross. So today rejoice Hosanna for He is Risen Jesus Christ lives forever Amen


Palm Sunday

Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. Zechariah 9:9

Palm Sunday is the celebration of Jesus entering Jerusalem as our King fulfilling the prophecy from Zechariah. Notice Jesus decided to ride a donkey instead of a horse, this was to show his humility and he is the “Prince of Peace”, many Jews were hoping for Jesus to wage war against Rome but God had a different plan.

During his arrival, everyone laid down palm branches, what did this symbolize? The palm branch in Roman culture symbolized victory. However the Palm branch was symbolic in Egyptian culture to symbolize eternal life. Both meanings are very fitting for Palm Sunday

(Matthew 21:9) “And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest”

Hosanna means “Please deliver us” or “I beg you to save”. Everyone was desperately waiting for coming of our Messiah; Jesus fulfilled the promise and prophesies. This is part of what makes Palm Sunday so special and spiritual.

(Psalm 118:26) “Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD.

This is the Psalm the people sang while Jesus entered Jerusalem, everyone knew Jesus was the Son of God, the Messiah promised from the Old Testament scriptures.

So this Palm Sunday remember Jesus is coming again soon, lets rejoice and sing in anticipation of our Messiahs return in Jesus name Amen
