Your King Comes to You | Palm Sunday @ Wonder

Your King Comes to You | Palm Sunday Sermon“See, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey…” — Matthew 21:5Palm Sunday isn’t just a moment in history—it’s a deeply personal invitation.In this message, Pastor CJ Witkoe explores the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem and asks a powerful question:Did Jesus choose the cross… or was He forced into it?The answer changes everything.Through the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9 and the events of Matthew 21, we see that Jesus didn’t just accidentally fulfill prophecy—He intentionally chose to fulfill it. From riding on a donkey to remaining silent before His accusers, Jesus actively stepped into God’s plan.And that reveals something profound:What He couldn’t control reveals His identity (He is God). What He chose reveals His character (He is love).The bottom line of this message is simple—but life-changing:Your choices reveal your character.And Jesus’ choice? He chose to come for you.In this sermon, you’ll discover:👑 Why Palm Sunday prophecy is both miraculous and intentional 📖 How Jesus fulfilled over 300 prophecies—and why it matters 🔥 The difference between divine identity and chosen obedience 💧 How God pursues us before we ever pursue Him ❤️ Why your relationship with Jesus starts with His choice—not yoursWhile we often think of faith as us searching for God, Scripture flips the story:Jesus came to you first.“We love because He first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19Before you ever reached for Him, before you ever believed, before you ever cleaned up your life—Your King was already on His way to you.📖 Scripture: Matthew 21:1–5, Zechariah 9:9, Luke 24:44, Romans 5:8 🎙️ Message Title: Your King Comes to You 📅 Occasion: Palm Sunday
