1And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples, 2And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him. 3And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither. 

Mark 11:1-10

4And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him. 5And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt? 6And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go. 7And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him. 8And many spread their garments in the way

: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way. 9And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: 10Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.

Let Him Ride

A Sermon byServant Brian K. Woodson, Sr.

What’s your part of getting God Glorified

1a. Jesus will command... you!

Christ has chosen to limit the Divine Power in your life by your obedience!!!

Go your way into the village over against you...Where there is no doubt about the Lord’s instructions to you... there should be no delay.

God will never give you a miracle that reduces your dependence on Him.

2a. Obedience requires Faith…

Faith is a force applied toward a goal/objective...

And

Faith is a force applied against - fear- lethargy – disobedience

And they went their way...

- With normal circumstance...

3a. Faith will put you at odds...

- With other people...

- With your own mind dealing with other people and circumstance

But where Christ commands He has also prevened.

A.- Acts of Faith

What’s your part of getting God Glorified

7And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him...

B.- Sacrifice is required...1b.- sacrifice is inevitable...

2b.- sacrifice is enviable... 3b.- sacrifice is spiritual...

Sacrifice has nothing to do with things...

It has to do with our attachment to things.

It has to do with our dependence and faith in false things... or our dependence and faith in Christ.

A.- Acts of Faith

Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another

John 3: 29-30 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled...

He must increase, but I must decrease.
