And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as you be entered into it, you shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him. And if any man say unto you, Why do you this? say you that the Lord have need of him; and straightway he will send him hither. And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him. And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do you, loosing the colt? And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, your King comes unto you: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, your King comes, sitting on an ass's colt.
And the Jews' Passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables; And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise. And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of your house have eaten me up. Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign show you unto us, seeing that you do these things? Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt you rear it up in three days? But he spoke of the temple of his body. When therefore He was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
And He taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but you have made it a den of thieves.
Pray without ceasing.
What? know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own? For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as you have: for He have said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you.
That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbade the madness of the prophet.
For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds.
Have you not known? has you not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He gives power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Mark 11:2-6;Zech. 9:9;John 12:15;John 2:13-22;Mark 11:17;1 Thes. 5:17;1 Cor. 6:19-20;Heb. 13:5;Eph. 5:26-27;2 Pet. 2:15-17;Heb. 12:3;Isa. 40:28-31
The contradiction of sinners, being not conformed to this world, but being transformed by the renewing of the mind. The contradiction was a mad prophet, that was paid to curse God's people, but Jesus contradicted it by blessing the remnant that serves the Living God, riding upon a ass and the colt the foal of an ass. A Rock and a hard place, God shall supply the need, because the Lord have need of anything that we have need of. My life is hid, with Christ in God. I need a house fit for this hour, the Lord have need of it. It shall be loosed. Hallelujah, whatever I shall loose on earth it shall be loosed in heaven. Amen. What a blessing!!! and I got it.
