"The Promise of Lent" - 6th Sunday, Palm Sunday & Holy Week

40 Day Journey Toward the Power of Easter

with Chris Tiegreen's devotional "The Promise of Lent"

Before I begin to share this week, I've had many plans, books and studies during this time that I have not given my 100% just because I chose too many, however, I am so thankful that I continued on with this "journey toward ..." JESUS' power in the Resurrection to this very week ... this Holy Week, culminating with our celebration of His Glorious Resurrection; His Victory over sin, sickness and even death for us (you, me & even those who have not yet come to this belief and understanding) yet it all begins with this day ...

PALM SUNDAY

6th Sunday of Lent
Matthew 21:1-9
... and choosing to accept JESUS The Promise of Lent our Lord of lords our King of kings and laying down our own thoughts placing Palms on the ground and surrendering to Him
FOR HE ALONE is SO WORTHY
FOR HE ALONE is the ONLY WAY Truth and Life
FOR JESUS ALONE took all our wrong doing,  paid our debt so that we may LIVE here and now & then ever after eternally
FOR JESUS LOVES US SO MUCH!
FOR JESUS is the ONLY WAY to God, our Father
Please take time each day this week to pray for the many souls still lost that will perish. If you are blessed and don't have any, please lift up a prayer for mine & my heart ache and urgency to see ALL saved ... God has patiently waited ever so long

"Lord, my words are not enough. My heart is speechless but full of truth, longing but full of joy, free but captivated by the power of Your aMazing love. May my soul bless Your name today & forever."

HOLY WEEK
Palm Sunday

Lord Jesus, may my praises ... {fill today with many Hallelujahs} as when You {came &}come riding into my life, in all humility of a true King. {Yet I must confess that my entire life journey did not hail You as King, as I should have, so I ask You to forgive me so that now & forevermore} I will bless Your holy appearance and let go of my expectations. I give You full freedom to reign in my heart, my relationships, & my circumstances. Blessings on the One who comes in the Name of the Lord. {Hosanna - Hallelujah!}
