Nearly 2000 years ago euphoric scenes were witnessed in Jerusalem. The city was shaken by the power of the outpouring of praise as Jesus rode into the city. The streets were alive with the throng as even the children cried out shouts of praise – “Hosanna! (Save I pray!) Blessed is here who comes in the name of the Lord.” Excitement filled the streets for they were witnessing prophecy fulfilled – “Behold your King is coming seated on a donkey’s colt”. The people rejoiced with exultation. Had they not witnessed the miracles! Had they not seen signs and wonders! Was this not the hope of Israel! Here was their King! God’s rule had come.
