Palm Sunday: Be A Follower of Jesus and Not Just a Fan (VIDEO)

It’s Palm Sunday, which is the day Jesus made his triumphant entry into Jerusalem as depicted in the Gospels (Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-40, and John 12:12-19) I’ll be honest with y’all, though I always had a bit of a qualm about Palm Sunday, because the Jews were praising Jesus, shouting “Hosanna, Hosanna!” that day. Less than a week later, it was “Crucify Him!”

Now understandably, everything that happened HAD to happen for Jesus to fulfill His mission to die and rise from the dead for our sins. But still…those people were FICKLE! But then again…I’ve been too. My pastor broke it down in his Palm Sunday sermon this year, and he reminded me that this is a prime example of why it’s important to be a FOLLOWER of Jesus and not just a fan.

GODFIRMATION: God is Sovereign

When you consider the sovereignty of God, what comes to mind? This Godfirmation is a reminder that God is Lord of all creation. He can exercise and has exercised that authority as well.

This is a serious attribute of God! Because of His sovereignty, everything happens according to His plan and intention. He has all power and has the ability to create from nothing, give anything, and take away anything.

Worship Song: “You Love Me So”-Madison Ryann Ward

“No added pressure, darling on who I gotta be….
I know a love that sees my worth and knows my quality.”

Madison Ryann Ward is probably my favorite artist to listen to right now (Christian or otherwise). I love her vibe and her Christian R&B tracks are so calming to me! But my favorite song from her is “You Love Me So” from her album, “A New Thing.”

I listened to this song a lot when I first heard it because I was grappling with being single and feeling inadequate in some areas. And this song is a reminder that God loves us all as we are. Madison came out with the video for the track this month (February 2024) so I thought it was perfect to feature this Worship Song for this month of love.

GODFIRMATION: God Hears Our Prayers

This Godfirmation today is a reminder that, despite what we may think, God truly does hear our prayers. And now I understand what a privilege it is to carry everything to Him!

Jeremiah 29:12-13 is a reminder that, despite the Israelites’ rebellion against God, He would still hear their prayers. Ultimately, God would still hear the prayers of Israel, and thousands of years later, God also hears ours.

Bible Breakdown: Praises and Vulnerability with God in Psalms

When I first began Bible journaling and doing a deep read of the Bible, I was going to start in the Gospels to study the ministry of Jesus and who He called Christians to be. However, God led me to start the book of Psalms.

And it took me almost four months.

It was timely because, at the time I started reading Psalms, I was in a very fragile state in my life. I was house hunting in a TERRIBLE market and grappling with triggers about where I was in life. And, in that moment, I needed to read a book that deals with vulnerability and openness about your concerns with God, while still praising and trusting Him in the process. And that’s what Psalms is.
