A Broken Hosanna | 4.2.2023

A sermon from John 12:12-19

OUTLINE

1. A desperate plea
2. A victory chant
3. A humble surrender

GOSPEL CONNECTION

Jesus came to earth to be the once-for-all sacrifice for sin. He came to be King over our lives, not a political king to rule a nation. Jesus’s mission is much greater than giving us freedom from human oppression found in governments. The freedom Jesus offers is from sin and death, and is only available to us because of His death on the cross. He died in our place, doing for us what we are incapable of doing. By grace through faith we are set free from the captivity of sin.

APPLICATION

How will you honor and worship Jesus - be specific - with your life this week?

PRAYER

Help me to hail you as King of my life, 24 hours of every day, not only when it is convenient or I believe You can offer me something. You, Jesus, are the only One worthy of my allegiance, worship and praise.
