Well, welcome to Palm Sunday. I know we don't have palm branches laying around, but today is Palm Sunday, which is a moment in history where we celebrate the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem as king and Savior. And so we celebrate that today. Before we get started, a couple things I want to make you aware of. Number one, this coming Friday, somebody say beyond. This coming Friday is our special Good Friday evening worship experience. And we would love for you to be there at 7:00 PM it's going to be an amazing time. And let me just get you prepped for what it is. We are going to spend some intentional time simply worshiping Jesus. You say, well, why are we doing that?
Because he's worthy, right? We're just going to worship him. We're going to take time. We're going to go through scripture. We're going to go through just slowing our lives down and recognizing and commemorating that night when Jesus gave his life. And then on Sunday, it's Easter Sunday, Resurrection Sunday. Are you ready? On the 20th next week, three service times. This is our new schedule. Somebody say new schedule. Remember at the beginning of the year we did a series called the New? Well, guess what the new is here. We're making more room for people to experience Jesus. 8:30, 10:00, 11:45, 8:30.
Somebody say 8:00. Somebody say 10:00 and 11:45. You get to pick one of these. Invite all your friends, all your family. We are experiencing a tremendous amount of growth here at Embassy, and we thank God for it. Amen. I do want to clarify. If you watch the video, you heard me say that we have grown year over year by 18%. Last week as I was talking, I had it written down, but for some reason I said 28%. It's not 28, it's 18%. So I just want to clarify, I don't like the fudge numbers. I'm going to be an honest preacher. Amen. So God's doing all types of amazing things. Somebody say Easter egg hunt. Easter egg hunt also happens next week at 1:00 PM for all of the little children. And we ask that you register so you can get online and register your children to come there. This just helps us prepare, make sure that we have the right amount of eggs. We don't want no kids getting in any kind of conflict out there over no eggs. We don't want to break up, no fights.
You have 10, I have five. It's going to be a great time. Y'all ready to get in this word? Stand to your feet. We're going to the Book of Luke, chapter 19. The Book of Luke, chapter 19. We are beginning today a two part sermon series, really a two part message for Easter. And we're calling it the Road. And it's going to make sense here in a minute. But we begin our journey on the road in Luke, chapter 19, verse number 28. Luke, chapter 19, verse number 28. If you brought a paper Bible, shout yes. I hear a lot of papers turning and I love that sound. Luke, chapter 19, verse number 28. And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. When he drew near to Beth Age and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he said two of his disciples 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. And if anyone asks you, why are you untying it. You shall say this, the Lord has need of it. So those who were sent went away and found it just as he had told them. And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, why are you untying the colt? And they said, the Lord has need of it.
And they brought it to Jesus. And throwing their coats on the colt, they sat Jesus on it. And as he rode along, they spread their coats on the road. 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. Somebody say a loud voice. Don't let anybody convince you that your praise should be quiet.
There are moments when we are quiet. But there are moments when we rejoice with a loud voice. God is not offended by loud praise, for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying, blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord. Peace in heaven and glory in the highest. And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, teacher, rebuke your disciples. And he answered, I love this. I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out. Yeah, I like how the KJV says it. The rocks will cry out.
I sometimes wish that Jesus would have allowed the rocks to cry out. Could you imagine? It would have been the first rock concert. I couldn't help myself. I couldn't help myself. I'm sorry, y'all. Somebody say Amen. I don't really have a title. I just want to call this Palm Sunday, if that's all right. Let's pray. Heavenly Father, we're so grateful, so thankful to be in your house. I pray that in the next few moments we'd open up our ears, our hearts, our mind to receive your word. Change us from the inside out. Help us to walk out of here different than the way we walked in, we give your name, the praise, the glory and the honor because you're worthy of it. In Jesus name. Amen. Look at your neighbor and say, neighbor. Don't let the rocks cry out. Look at your other neighbor, say, other neighbor.
Don't let the rocks cry out. Could you give Jesus some praise before you're seated? Come on. One more time. Amen. You may be seated. The road. I want to give us a working definition for the next two weeks. So I want to define what a road is. A road is a route or path to travel that leads from one place to another. That's the simple definition of a road. A road is simply a route or a path that leads from one place to another. If you are here today, you are here because you took the road. Whatever road you were on, depending on where you're coming from, you may have had to fight some demons on the road. I fight demons almost every day from about 5:00 to 6:30 on the road. Unless you're watching online, you took a road to get here. And we're used to being on roads, especially in the modern city. But roads were not developed in modern cities. In fact, the first mention of a road is actually found in Genesis chapter 3, verse number 24. When God, Adam and Eve disobeyed, and rebelled against God. God casts them out of the Garden of Eden. And then the Bible says that God places an angel with a flaming sword to, "guard the way" to the tree of life.
That phrase, the way, the word way is actually a Hebrew word called derech. It's where we get the word direction from. And that word means a way or path or route or road or highway. It's a thoroughfare to physically get from one place to another. Now this is what we know about God. Anything that God creates, he creates for a significant purpose, right? So when God first constructed a road.
We can look throughout scriptures and you will find significant events that take place along a road or a path. Sometimes the road is narrow, sometimes the path is a highway. In fact, one of the greatest examples that we find in scripture of God constructing a road is when the deliverance of Israel was happening out of Egypt. The Bible says that God brings them out of Egypt and he constructs a dry road through the midst of the Red Sea, to which the Israelites traveled from slavery through the dry road into their freedom. In other words, Scripture says that God directed the Israelites on the road by a cloud during the day and fire by night. Even the psalmist, when he began to write the 23rd Psalm, he said this about the good shepherd. He said, the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name sakes. Everywhere you look in scripture, significant events occur along the road. And our passage that we read today is no different.
In fact, Jesus spends much of his ministry on the road. Our very first introduction to Jesus after his birth. He's a 12 year old boy and guess where we find him? On the road to Jerusalem for the feast of Passover.
When you read the four Gospels, you will find it's very clear that after Jesus returns from his wilderness experience, almost immediately he got on the road. And if you do some calculations, because the Gospels are very detailed about the travel itinerary of Jesus, when you do the calculations of everywhere that Jesus went during his three years of ministry, it equates to 3,125 miles that Jesus walked. Now, this begs the question. Jesus, the Son of God, could have very well teleported anywhere he wanted to be.
Jesus could have said, I want to be in Jerusalem. Bam. He could have said, I want to be in Galilee, boom. If Jesus could walk on water, he could go anywhere he wanted to go without even walking. And there's nothing that we know about Jesus. We know that Jesus was very influential.
And he was very attractional. So Jesus, and we read this in Scripture, after doing a miracle, multitudes would come to where he was. Jesus could have just posted up in Jerusalem or Galilee and just let the crowds come to him. He could have. He was influential enough. He did enough miracles that people would have come from miles around, days of trips to get to where Jesus was. And yet Jesus decides that in his earthly ministry, he would go to where people are.
Let me just propose that the reason why Jesus spent so much time on the road is to get to people that couldn't get to him. Jesus, the Son of God, spent 3,125 miles walking to get to people who could not get to him. Think about this. Jesus was on the road when he first called his disciples. The Bible says that while Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Peter and said, follow me and I'll make you fishers of men. While Jesus was walking, he passed by Matthew and said, Matthew, leave your tax collecting, come and be my disciple.
While Jesus was on the road, he met the woman who had the issue of blood, who touched the hem of his garment. While he was on the road, Jesus stopped by the well. We talked about it last week, and he gave a woman eternal water. While he was on the road, he passed by blind Bartimaeus, who called out to him. While Jesus was on the road, he delivered the demoniac of Gadara. While he was on the road, he raised the widow of Nain's son. While he was on the road, he healed the 10 lepers.
Everywhere that Jesus went, he intentionally got on the road to get to people that could not get to him. Think about it. Blind Bartimaeus didn't have the sight to get to Jesus, but Jesus Was concerned enough about him that he got to where he was. The man by the pool of Bethesda could not walk to get into the pool when the water was troubled. So Jesus walked to him. The woman with the issue of blood was not supposed to come out of the house to get to Jesus. So Jesus got near where she was. The woman at the well had to sneak off to get to the well when no one was there. So Jesus intentionally got to where she was. The 10 lepers were ostracized because they had a leprosy. They were not supposed to come into town, but Jesus was so concerned about them that he went out of town. Can anyone testify that you didn't get to Jesus, Jesus got to you? Is my mic on?
Can anybody testify that you're not the one that got to Jesus? You weren't so holy that you went by the church house. Jesus came to where you were. Jesus is intentional about being on the road. Now think about this. Jesus didn't stay on the road because he loved taking leisurely strolls. Jesus wasn't walking because he had a Fitbit and was trying to get his 10,000 steps. He didn't have an apple watch saying, man, I better walk to Galilee. I still got a thousand steps left.
Jesus wasn't walking because he was practicing for a walkathon. No, Jesus stayed on the road because he was getting to where people were. In the trial for entry, this event often referred to as the triumphal entry. The scripture that we read it is no different. Think about this. At the time of the triumphal entry, this was during the season, the event of Passover. The feast of Passover. And what you have to understand about the feast of Passover, there were three main feasts that God required all Jewish men, all Israelite males, to attend. One of them was the feast of Passover. And the feast of Passover was the feast in which the Israelites, the Jews, would celebrate the fact that in their history, while they were still in Egypt.
The death angel came into the camp and anyone who had the blood applied to the doorpost, the death angel had to pass over them. It's literally called the feast of Passover. And God said, you need to celebrate this fact every year. And during this time, it's estimated that there were around 250,000 lambs or more that were slain on the feast of Passover during the time of Jesus. Each lamb could feed about 10 people. So it's estimated that 2.5 million people had converged into Jerusalem and the surrounding areas for the feast of Passover.
So when Jesus gets there, he intentionally gets there when the most people are gathered together. Now, there's a lot of theological nuggets that I could talk about in the triumphal entry, but I really want to focus in for the next few moments, mainly on how Jesus shows us that he's intentional about getting on the road.
So if you're taking notes, I want you to write this down. Number one, he's intentional. Do you know that nothing that Jesus does is accidental? Look at Luke, chapter 19, verse number 29. This is what it says. When he drew near to Beth Age in Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples saying, go into the village in front of you, where on entering, you will find a colt tide on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, why are you untying it? You shall say this. The Lord has need of it. So those who were sent went away and found it just as he had told them. And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, why are you untying the colt?
And they said, the Lord has need of it. End of the story. Now, listen, oftentimes when we read this passage, we can read right past some of these events. But I want to stop and ask you this question. Do you know what is happening here? It's almost as if Jesus orchestrated the whole thing. Now, think about it. Jesus sends two disciples, and this is what he says to them. When you get to where I'm sending you, you will find a colt that no one has ever ridden tied up. Untie it.
Now, here's what's going to happen. When you untie it, the owner will ask you why you're untying it. You will tell the owner, the Lord has need of it. End of discussion. Now, we read this in the context of scripture. It makes sense. But imagine you were one of the two disciples. Imagine if I were to tell you right now, I want you to go out into the parking lot. I want you to find the nicest car you can find.
The keys are going to be in the console. Grab the keys, turn the car on. If the owner runs after you and says, yo, fam, what are you doing in my car? You will say to them, the Lord has need of it, and they're going to leave you alone. You know how ludicrous this sounds? Unless you are so intentional that in your foreknowledge you could predict what was going to happen. Now we know that Jesus, the son of God, can work miracles, right? This is a miracle that he is working. But put yourself in the shoes of the disciples and ask yourself this question. Why did they not ask Jesus why? Have you ever thought about that? Have you ever thought about the fact that we have no recorded, we have nothing recorded that the disciples ever asked Jesus, why are you making us do this?
Could it be that they had watched Jesus perform enough miracles that they didn't have to ask for more clarity? They know that when Jesus says to do something, just do it. Because he does everything intentionally. Think about it. They most of them had been there when Jesus said, bring me water and turned it into wine. They were there when he said, just bring me a little boy's lunch. And he fed 5,000. Some of us ask Jesus too many questions. Haven't you already seen him work in your life? And if he did it before, why wouldn't he do it again? If he says, apply for the job, stop asking him why, just apply. I may just be preaching to myself.
I've seen God work too many times for me to keep questioning him when he wants to work a miracle in my life. He's intentional. Now think about this. Jesus was intentional about talking, taking the road to the well. He said, I must needs go through Samaria. He was intentional about moving past the place that blind Bartimaeus was. Jesus is always intentional about the road that he is on. But not only is he intentional, but number two, he's on time. We don't like this one because we're like this.
Jesus, you're late. And Jesus like this, no, you're early. Jesus is never late. He's never early. He's always right on time. Look at this. Matthew, chapter 21, verse number four through five. The same account of the triumphal entry. This is what the Bible says. This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying, say to the daughter of Zion, behold, your king is coming to you humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden. Think about this. Jesus was not only intentional about being on the road, but he was timely. Now I want you to get your thinking hat on and pay attention because I want to show you something that I have very little time to go through. But I think it's very significant. And I want to share this with you. I want to share with you just how timely Jesus is. So this has to take us back to the prophet Daniel. The prophet Daniel, he is deported as a teenager during the Babylonian captivity, Babylonian exile, they take Daniel and some other men and they take him into captivity. And he was reading the book of Jeremiah.
And as he was reading the book of Jeremiah, he realized that Israel was coming to the end of their 70 years of servitude. While he is reading this, the scripture says that he begins to pray for his people. While he is praying for his people, the angel Gabriel interrupts him. And when Gabriel interrupts him, he gives him a very specific prophecy concerning the arrival of the Messiah.
You can read about this in Daniel, chapter 9, verse number 24 through 27. I encourage you to read it. Daniel 9, 24 through 27. Now, I want to read this to you from Daniel, chapter 9, verse number 25. This is what the angel is saying. Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem, to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for 62 weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, but in a troubled time. Now, I have to give you a little bit of theology here, a little bit of hermeneutics. When we read this, if we read the word weeks, we think seven days. But the word weeks in ancient Israel was actually two, it had two meanings. One it meant year, and two, it meant seven units. So when you add this equation into what the angel is saying, here's what we get, 7 times 7, which equals 49, plus 62 times 7, which equals 434. So in totality, what the angel says to Daniel is from the time that the command goes out to rebuild the city of Jerusalem, there shall be 483 years.
Now, in ancient Jews, they would use a 360 lunar calendar year, not 365 so when you add this into the equation and you multiply 360 days times 483 years, you end up with 173,880 days. Now, we have historical evidence that King Artaxerxes gave the command to rebuild the city of Jerusalem on March 14, 445 BC.
Now, when you add 173,880 days to that date, it brings you to April 6, 32 AD which happens to be the exact day that Jesus rode on a donkey into Jerusalem, declaring for the first time publicly that he is the coming Messiah. When I read that, I had to get up in my office and do me a little jig. You know why? Because it told me that every time Jesus shows up in my life, he's right on time. The very second, the very minute, the very moment that he shows up. It's right when I need him. Some of you want him to come early. He said, not yet. Some of you think that they thought he was late with Lazarus. Jesus, if you would have been here my brother wouldn't have died. Jesus said he had to die. So not only is he intentional, but he's on time, down to the very day. Some of y'all like, I don't know. Let me recommend a book to you, by Sir Robert Anderson. The book is called the Coming Prince. You can read the equations there for yourself.
Intentional. Timely. Some of you have been waiting on Jesus, and Jesus says, keep waiting. I'mma get there when I get there. Here's point number three. He's in control. Not only is he intentional about getting to the road, he's timely getting to the road. And guess what? He's in control. Luke, chapter 19, verse number 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, saying, blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord, Peace in heaven and glory in the highest. I started to wonder, who were these people that were making a ruckus when Jesus was coming in?
Could it have been the woman who was healed from the issue of blood? Could it have been that the woman who had had an issue of blood for years, who had seen him do the work, showed up on that Palm Sunday, grabbed herself a palm leaf, put her coat down and said, if nobody is going to recognize that this is the king, I am because I know for a fact in my own life, he's done something so great that I can't help but give him praise for it. Could it be that blind Bartimaeus, now being able to see, saw his way to that road and said, because I've watched Jesus heal my eyes when I was blind, if nobody else does, I've got to give him praise for what he's done in my life. Could it be that it was the woman at the well who found her way to that glorious place where she was a Samaritan, not supposed to be there, but she said, I'mma come anyways, because I got to give Jesus praise that he's due?
We know for a fact that Lazarus was there. And Lazarus could testify that I was dead, but he called me back to life, and so I got to praise him for it. And the Pharisees were like, this is ridiculous. Why are these people making all this noise? There's some people that may be watching online, there may be a church that think your praise is ridiculous.
Too loud. Too boisterous, too much. Settle down, calm down, be quiet. Take the decibels down, put a gate on it. But if you had been where I was when Jesus passed by me, you would understand the reason I praise the way I do. Because no one could have done this except for Jesus. Jesus deserves our best worship and praise every single time. I want to give you 10 seconds.
To give God praise according to what he's done in your life. The Pharisees said, this is too much. This is what Jesus said. Y'all don't get it. If they don't testify, the road will. Because even stones have a memory of what God's done. Why am I talking about the road? Because the reality of the road is that we are all on a road. We may be at different mile markers in the road, but we all are traveling. We all are on a journey. Some of you, you may be on a road that's leading to destruction and God's calling you to repentance. Many of us are on a road that leads to eternal life. But we may be on a road, a mile marker on the road that is causing us some angst.
Maybe you're on the same road as the woman with the issue of blood. She didn't have an obvious issue. Nobody could really tell, but she was bleeding from the inside out. Maybe you're on the road of blind Bartimaeus, who had no vision. He couldn't see his future. Maybe you're on the same road as the woman at the well. You've been trying to quench your thirst with relationships and stuff, but you're still empty and dry.
Maybe you're on the same road as the 10 lepers who had lost a lot of things. They were ostracized. They were cast out. Maybe you're on the same road as Lazarus, who experienced death and was in need of resurrection. Maybe you're on the road, the same road as Zacchaeus. He had everything. The horse and buggy, the servants, the money, the fame, the position, while was still empty. All of these individuals were at different mile markers on the road, and Jesus, intentionally, timely and in control, passed them.
Exactly where they were. You know what that tells me about Jesus? No matter where you walk or where you are, he's already been there. And the good news of Palm Sunday, yes, it's great that we have the triumphal entry. But Jesus came riding in on a donkey, which was a beast of burden. And kings traditionally wouldn't ride donkeys. They would ride horses. Horses were representative of power and majesty and might. So in times of war, kings would ride a horse. But in times of peace, after the war, they would come riding in on a donkey. And Jesus comes riding in on a donkey to display to us that wherever we are on the road, he's bringing peace. He's bringing peace to your situation.
He's bringing peace to your situation, he's bringing peace to your Lazarus experience, where he's gonna bring life. He's bringing peace to your blindness of vision. He's gonna restore it. The good news of Palm Sunday is that the king is here. And because the king is here, wherever I am, he brings his authority. I don't know who this message is for, but some of you are on a road that you don't understand right now. You're serving God, but you're like, man, this is hard. I see people on down the road, man. They seem like they're having the time of their lives. They're ascending to the mountain, I feel like I'm going down to the valley.
They seem like they're blessed on this road. I feel like I'm cursed on it. Wherever you are on the road, just know this. Jesus is passing by. You have an opportunity to invite him to stop. Unlike every other king, Jesus actually stops for the beggar. Jesus actually stops for the downtrodden. Jesus actually stops. The king actually takes interest of someone who has an issue in their life.
He will actually take a detour. He could have gone a different road, but he took a detour to stop by to talk to a woman that nobody wanted to talk to. Jesus would take side streets. He'll go down alleyways, he'll squeeze down paths, he'll walk on gravel, he'll go on concrete, he'll walk on water just to get to you, God. He'll even make a road on water. I don't know where you are on the road, but you don't have to wait till Easter. You don't have to wait until some big event happens. Wherever you are, Jesus is passing by. He just wants to know, is there anybody that say, stop by my house.
Isn't it amazing that when blind Bartimaeus called out to Jesus, people said, shut up. He ain't here for you. Blind Bartimaeus said, he's rolling on my block. I've been here for years, and I'm not leaving until he touches me. If Jesus is passing by, why would you not get desperate? Old song says, pass me not, gentle Savior, hear my humble cry. While on others that were called, do not pass me by.
Could you stand all across this place? The reality is that we are all on a road. I want to talk to those of you that may be on a road that leads to destruction. It's time to change directions. And if that's you, I want you to pray this prayer with me. We're all going to say it together. Some of you are going to say it for the very first time. Some of you are going to say it again, but this time with sincerity. But if you're heading down the wrong road, it's time to change directions. So you would close your eyes. And for those of you that are ready to make that commitment to get on the same road with Jesus and follow Him, I want you to say this prayer with me. Say, dear Jesus, I acknowledge my need for you. I believe you came in the form of humanity. You gifted us your life. I believe you paid for my sins by dying on the cross. I believe you conquered death by rising from the grave. I believe you are seated in heaven ruling as Lord and King. Forgive me for my sins. Come into my heart.
Be the Lord of my life. I receive your gift and commit my life to you. Thank you for hearing my prayer. In Jesus name, Amen. Come on, somebody celebrate. Somebody changed their direction today.
This is what I want you to do, if you prayed that prayer for the first time, your next step is water baptism. And in three weeks, we are going to have water baptism here. Come on, somebody make some noise. I love water baptism. So if you pray that prayer for the very first time, would you hit this QR code? Because you need to sign up for water baptism so we can get you all set up. So when you show up, we're going to baptize you as a public declaration of an inward decision that you made to follow Jesus on the road that he is traveling. I want our prayer team to come, and as they're getting ready. Some of you are on different parts of the road that you may not understand. For some of you, you've been on a certain mile marker and the Lord has called you to leave where you're at and walk on down the road. And you're asking, God, God, where is my next stop? And he's not telling you. He just wants you to trust him. But the main thing is that you stay on the road that leads to life. So if you're in this place and you feel confused about where you are on the road.
I invite you to come pray with somebody and this is what you can tell them. Hey, listen, I need new vision in my life. The place where I am on the road is blurry to me. I need God to invigorate my vision. Some of you, I'm in a relationship that's actually destructive to me. I need Jesus to touch me where I'm at on this road. For some of you, it's vision. You've lost all vision. You've lost all type, your sight for the future and God wants to restore your sight.
But wherever you are on the road, you don't have to walk alone. Number one, we will walk with you. And Jesus will walk with you. So we're going to go into another time of worship. And as we do, I invite you, if you need prayer, to come down. If not, we will see you here next week for Easter. Make sure you invite everybody to come. God bless you.
