The Lord carries the pressure of the cross before He carries the cross and it's all for you and me. John 12:27-31; Psa 110:1

Greeks signal the salvation that will come to the Gentiles. Joh 12:20-24

We are poised at the great entrance of Christ into Jerusalem on the back of a young donkey. This is 5 days before the Passover and the Lord’s triumphal entry; what is traditionally known as Palm Sunday.   Everyone was in a state of excitement or agitation. The disciples have just had their faith muscled by watching the...

Using the power of God to destroy the fortresses that stand between you and the super-grace life. Eph 1:6; Eph 3:14-19; 2Co 10:3-4

[and no, they are not here]   When a person like this faces obstacles they easily give up on their pursuits, get very emotional, fall into self-pity and pout and...

Who's who in the multitude that comes out to see Jesus on the colt. John 12:12-19; Zec 9:9; Gen 49:10

This brings us back to John 12:12 where the Palm Sunday incident is recorded. But remembering that John is the Gospel of the Son of God it will be handled in a little different way.   John 12:12 On the next day the great multitude who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,...

Be careful of desiring prosperity but not by means of grace. John 12:10-12; Mark 11-12; Psa 118:22-26

John 12:10 But the chief priests took counsel that they might put Lazarus to death also;   It seems their meetings are ending up in the same way each time. Kill Jesus, the miracle worker, kill Lazarus, the miracle itself, let’s just kill all evidence of grace in this world so that we can stay fat, powerful, and...

Think for yourself with doctrine from the privacy of your priesthood.

John 12:1 Jesus, therefore, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.   John 12:2 So they made Him a supper there, and Martha was serving; but Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with Him.   John 12:3 Mary...
