Can you imagine it? Can you imagine standing with the throngs in Jerusalem as Jesus Christ made His triumphal entry into the city?

Hosanna! Hosanna! Hosanna! To God and the Lamb!

Do you see Him in your mind’s eye? Riding on a donkey. Flanked by His disciples.

How do you know imagine

Jesus enters Jerusalem, by Madeline, aged 13

Most likely, you’d heard of the signs and wonders He performed—or others told you about them as the King of Israel approached.

Hosanna

A word from Hebrew that means “please save us” and is used in praise and supplication.

At the Feast of Tabernacles, which celebrated the Lord’s deliverance of Israel into the promised land, people chanted the words of Psalm 118 and waved palm branches. At the Lord’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the multitudes cried “Hosanna” and spread palm branches for Jesus to ride upon, thus demonstrating their understanding that Jesus was the same Lord who had delivered Israel anciently (Psalm 118:25–26; Matthew 21:9, 15; Mark 11:9–10; John 12:13). These people recognized Christ as the long-awaited Messiah. The word Hosanna has become a celebration of the Messiah in all ages (1 Nephi 11:6; 3 Nephi 11:14–17)

Imagine!

[Taking] branches of palm trees, and [going] forth to meet him, and [crying], Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Imagine!

[Being with] the multitudes that went before, and that followed, [crying], saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

Imagine!

[Seeing] the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David;

Imagine exclaiming in His presence!

Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:

Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.

Imagine hailing Jesus of Nazareth, the King of Israel, as He began His week of reclaiming and redeeming the House of Israel. The true King. The Anointed One. Your Messiah.

Imagine His hands anointing your eyes or healing your ailment. Hear His words proclaiming peace and redemption. Feel the power as He commanded in the name of the Most High God.

Triumphal Entry into My Heart

Palm Sunday happened so long ago. I missed these festivities by 2,000 years. But they become more real to me day by day!

In my mind’s eye, I see Jesus Christ’s triumphal entry to Jerusalem. And with all of that same fervor and exclamation, His triumphal entry into my heart is complete.

On this Palm Sunday, with the cheers and adulation on the streets of Jerusalem for the Son of God ringing in my ears, I imagine the cheers and adulation on the streets of the New Jerusalem, as together we sing a new song.

Imagine worshipping our Messiah there!

Until all shall know me, who remain, even from the least unto the greatest, and shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord, and shall see eye to eye, and shall lift up their voice, and with the voice together sing this new song, saying:

The Lord hath brought again Zion; The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, According to the election of grace, Which was brought to pass by the faith And covenant of their fathers.

The Lord hath redeemed his people; And Satan is bound and time is no longer. The Lord hath gathered all things in one. The Lord hath brought down Zion from above. The Lord hath brought up Zion from beneath.

The earth hath travailed and brought forth her strength; And truth is established in her bowels; And the heavens have smiled upon her; And she is clothed with the glory of her God; For he stands in the midst of his people.

Glory, and honor, and power, and might, Be ascribed to our God; for he is full of mercy, Justice, grace and truth, and peace, Forever and ever, Amen.

Jesus Christ is real. And He has come and is coming…again.
