SPREAD YOUR GARMENT

DAILY GRACE
FRIDAY.18TH MARCH, 2016
TOPIC: SPREAD YOUR GARMENT
TEXT: MATT 21: 8

Welcome to a new weekend. I see you recovering lost opportunities. It shall be an amazing and awesome weekend for you in Jesus name.
Christ is honoured by the multitude, more than by the magnificence, of his followers, for He values men by their souls, not by their preference, position, names, or titles of honour.
Now, concerning this great multitude, we can see in the above verse what they did according to the best of their capacity, they decided to do honour to Christ by spreading their garment while given Him a royal welcome.
They spread their garments in the way that He might ride upon them.
 When Jehu was proclaimed king, the captains put their garments under him, in token of their subjection to him (2Kgs.9:13).
Note, dearly beloved, those that take Christ for their King must lay their all under His feet, the clothes, in token of the heart for when Christ comes, though not when any one else comes, it must be said to the soul. Bow down, that He may go over. these garments were spread to adorn the roads as, to beautify a cavalcade, the balconies are hung with tapestry. This was but a poor piece of state, yet Christ accepted their good-will and we are hereby taught to contrive how to make Christ welcome in our hearts, Christ and His grace, Christ and His gospel, into our hearts and houses.
 Friends,how will you express your respect to Christ?
What honour and what dignity shall be done to Him by your conduct and character? Will you spread your heart today for Him alone to ride on it?
 Others cut down branches from the trees, and strewed them in the way, as they used to do at the feast of tabernacles, in token of liberty, victory, and joy, for the mystery of that feast is particularly spoken of as belonging to gospel times (Zech.14:16).
Enjoy Your Weekend!

Personal Confession: Father, help me to spread my garment  and make it available for your honor in Jesus name.

  Read, Reflect, and Rebroadcast to bless someone. God bless you.
