Palm Sunday Devotion
Text: Luke 19:28-44
Question: Have I traded righteousness for self-righteousness.
Sermon Ideas and Talking Points:
Obedience displayed (v. 28-35a)
- Jesus head to Jerusalem for the last time
- The disciples given a “weird” task
- The colt is brought to Jesus
Responding with praise (v. 36b-40)
- The disciples honor Jesus
- The disciples praise God for Jesus’ works
Responding with hardened hearts (v. 41-44)
- Pharisees what disciples rebuked
- Jesus refuses to rebuke them
- Jesus weeps over a missed opportunity
Big Idea: It’s possible to be close to religion, and yet still miss God.
Questions to Ponder:
- What is one thing that stood out to you from this week’s message?
- How did Jesus fulfill prophecy in this passage?
- Why do you think Jesus cried when He looked at Jerusalem?
- What caused the Pharisees to miss what was happening?
- Do you ever feel like you might be missing God’s work? Why?
- How can you stay connected to God, even when there are so many distractions around you?
