Luke 19:28 And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 When he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples, 30 saying, “Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here. 31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say this: ‘The Lord has need of it.’ ” 32 So those who were sent went away and found it just as he had told them. 33 And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?” 34 And they said, “The Lord has need of it.” 35 And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it. 36 And as he rode along, they spread their cloaks on the road. 37 As he was drawing near—already on the way down the Mount of Olives—the whole multitude of his disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, 38 saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” 39 And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” 40 He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.” (ESV)

1. Read Isaiah 46:8-11 and Romans 1:1-2. Why is Old Testament prophecy regarding the New Testament realities (particularly about the person and work of Christ) so important? What relevance does all of this fulfilled prophecy have as we represent Christ and his gospel in the modern world?

2. Read Psalm 19:7-14. In your everyday life, what are some of the specific ways you will show the importance and value you place on God’s word?

3. Read Philippians 2:9-11. Besides verbally “confessing” the truth of Christ’s authority, what are some ways you demonstrate his lordship from day to day?

4. Read Revelation 5:9-14. How does Christ’s rightful authority to reign over all people affect the way you think about evangelism, missions, and those who reject Christ?

5. Read Psalm 106:7 & 21. How does thoughtful thanksgiving – recalling the specific good Christ has done and continues to do for you – safeguard and motivate your Christian life?
