We are entering into the great procession that leads to the mark of the crucifixation, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. The sacrificial lamb who gave his life for the penalty of sin. As we acknowledge and celebrate the Savior who overcame death and the grave and is risen and seated at the right hand of the Father, we proclaim victory of the fulfilling prophecy. (Zech 9:9)
As we reflect on the triumphant entry of Jesus entering Jerusalem on a donkey which symbolizes humility of whom represented peace and servanthood, let us welcome the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, “Hosanna, in the Highest!”
Due to the war in Iran, all celebrations have been cancelled. As we reflect on Adonai during Holy Week, let us pray for peace and the Lord’s intervention and restoration on the continuous issues around the world.
Prayer:
Lord, we thank you for being the head of our lives. We honor and praise your name for who you are as King of King and Lords of Lords. May you provide sovereign protection over the United States and throughout all nations. May we join in repentance for the nation for the sins of injustice, idolatry, greed, and every disgraceful action, thought or deed upon the land. Uproot it and wash this nation clean. Restore our land. May we seek your face for wisdom and mercy. We ask that you heal the land and purge it of all iniquity. We thank you for taking all the sin of man and making it your own to carry on the Cross. We acknowledge your sacrificial love and we bless your Holy name.
In Jesus Name. Amen
