Sermon: My Mouth will Declare Your Praise | Luke 19:28–40 | The Triumphant Entry

“O Lord, open my lips and my mouth will declare Your praise,” writes the psalmist (Psalm 51:15).  The Lord opened the lips of a whole “multitude of his disciples” at His first advent, disciples who had seen Jesus make the blind to see, the deaf to hear, the lame to walk, and who had just witnessed the raising of Lazarus from the dead.  As Jesus entered Jerusalem on a lowly donkey, they “began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen.”  Likewise, today in His advent among us on the lowly “donkey” of mere words, the Lord opens our lips, and our mouths declare His praise for the forgiveness, life, and peace He comes to bring here, into His church, for us and for the life of the world.
