Jesus has entered Jerusalem as mighty King, "Hosanna!" Lord save us! We know the rest of the week was filled with false accusations and eventually crucifixion. My pastor reminded me this morning not to be "knocked of my donkey"! In ministry, we will face accusers. Even as everyday believers today, we will face ridicule and some will even face discrimination, prejudice and persecution . . .even death!
Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:‘ The stone which the builders rejectedeeeHas become the chief cornerstone. This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes’? “Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a nation bearing the fruits of it. And whoever falls on this stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.”(Matthew 21:42-44)
Don't be fooled by the false and surface words spoken concerning God today. Everyone wants prayer now! Everyone wants to be a friend of God, as when Jesus rode in with what they thought was a cure for the Roman political "plague". The tide will soon turn and true believers, you and me, will be left at the cross alone!
