Introduction
Villages in Spain learnt that the king would be visiting them.
In more than a thousand years, no king has ever come to this village.
Very excited. Wanted to have a big celebration.But it was a poor village.

Had an idea. Many in the village made their own wine.
Each decided to bring a large cup and pour it in a large vat.
When the king draws to drink, it will be the very best.The day before the king arrived, hundreds of people lined up.

The king arrived. Given a silver cup.He drew from the vat.Expected wine but only water came
out.Everyone thought - one cup of water
would not make a difference.They would not know.The problem – everyone thought the
same.

Palm Sunday is the day we honor the King of Kings.
It is the day we are to give our very best to the Lord.

A. Why is Palm Sunday Important?
It is the beginning of the end of Jesus’ earthly life.
First day of His last week.He was looking at the cross and
being raised to life.

B. What was Jesus’ Mission? – To Save
It was the Passover.A day of remembering the mighty work
of God.How He freed the Israelites from
Egyptian bondage.A celebration of victory.Yahweh had defeated the gods of Egypt.

Luke 19:10 – “To seek and To save.”People were in a joyous mood.They were praising God by singing
“Hosanna”.

They placed their coats on the road, cut branches.
A red carpet welcome.If Jesus were to walk by now, what
will you lay down for Him?Luke 19:40 – “Praise”

C. Our Mission – To Praise
Can be done privately or publicly.Chosen for that very purpose –
1 Peter 2:9What is standing in the way of my
ability to praise God?
![Page 11: Villages in Spain learnt that the king would be visiting them](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56816585550346895dd834c3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
1. Is it my pride? Is pride standing in the way of my
praise to God? When parents do not sing, their
children also do not sing. If we do not praise Jesus in church,
we probably would not praise Him elsewhere.

2. Is fear in the way?A good example is Peter.He was with Jesus - Saw, heard
experienced Him.But when confronted – he was
afraid.

3. Was there preparation?Branches were cut.People were informed.All took place before Jesus came to
Jerusalem.How prepared are you to praise
Jesus this morning?We often come to service with little
preparation.

4. Is there some burden, worry or sadness that is in the way?
Whatever it is, are you willing to lay it down?
Psalm 150:6What is our sacrifice of praise this
morning?
