In a city that never sleeps, where skyscrapers touch the heavens and life moves at lightning speed, let us pause and reflect on the eternal King who reigns above it all. Just as the disciples rejoiced in witnessing His mighty works, we too can celebrate His faithfulness in our lives today.

In a city that never sleeps, where skyscrapers touch the heavens and life moves at lightning speed, let us pause and reflect on the eternal King who reigns above it all. Just as the disciples rejoiced in witnessing His mighty works, we too can celebrate His faithfulness in our lives today. As we gather on this Palm Sunday, let us reflect on Luke 19:37, which says, "His disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen: 'Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!’” Let’s lift our voices together and let us shine His light brightly over our city, guiding us with wisdom and grace.

This Week's Scripture:
// Luke 19:28-44 //
The Triumphal Entry
After Jesus had said this, he continued on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. Now when he approached Bethphage and Bethany, at the place called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciples, 30 telling them, “Go to the village ahead of you. When you enter it, you will find a colt tied there that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ just say, ‘The Lord needs it.’” So those who were sent ahead found it exactly as he had told them. As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying that colt?” They replied, “The Lord needs it.” Then they brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt, and had Jesus get on it. As he rode along, they spread their cloaks on the road. As he approached the road leading down from the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen: “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” But some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” He answered, “I tell you, if they keep silent, the very stones will cry out!”
Jesus Weeps for Jerusalem under Judgment
Now when Jesus approached and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, “If you had only known on this day, even you, the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. For the days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and surround you and close in on you from every side. They will demolish you—you and your children within your walls—and they will not leave within you one stone on top of another, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation from God.”
