Hello, thank you for joining me today for Give Him 15.

The title of today's post is Palm Sunday, The Sound of the King.

We are living in a kairos moment, a window of time where heaven is intersecting with earth in a profound way.

To help us understand where we're going, we can look back. is intersecting with Earth in a profound way.

To help us understand where we're going, we can look back at one of the most strategic

prophetic demonstrations in history, the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem.

This wasn't just a parade. It wasn't a PR campaign for a new rabbi. It was a prophetic

act of war and a legal claim to a throne. When Jesus rode into Jerusalem on that donkey,

he wasn't just fulfilling a nice sentiment. He was executing a blueprint that had been

written in heaven before the foundations of the world. In the ancient world, symbolism was very

important to rulers just as it is today.

When Jesus approached Jerusalem, he chose his ride carefully.

He didn't come on a war horse.

In the culture of his day, a king returning from a conquest would ride a stallion, signaling, I have subdued my enemy.

But a king coming in peace or coming to offer a covenant wrote a young donkey.

By choosing the colt, Jesus was making a dual declaration.

One, I am your king, but two, I am coming as the prince of peace to serve and to save, not to slaughter.

The people were shouting Hosanna, which literally means save us now.

They were looking for a political insurgent to break the back of Roman tyranny.

But Jesus was looking at a much older, much darker tyranny, the spirit of death and the legal claim of sin over humanity.

He wasn't just entering a city. He was entering the courtroom of heaven to finalize the greatest legal victory in history.

There's an old rhyme regarding the scriptures. The new is in the old
