The crowd said, “This man is Jesus, the prophet from the town of Nazareth in Galilee.” Jesus went into the Temple and threw out all the people who were buying and selling there. He turned over the tables of those who were exchanging different kinds of money, and he upset the benches of those who were selling doves. Jesus said to all the people there, “It is written in the Scriptures, ‘My Temple will be called a house for prayer.’ But you are changing it into a ‘hideout for robbers.’ ” The blind and crippled people came to Jesus in the Temple, and he healed them. The leading priests and the teachers of the law saw that Jesus was doing wonderful things and that the children were praising him in the Temple, saying, “Praise to the Son of David.” All these things made the priests and the teachers of the law very angry. They asked Jesus, “Do you hear the things these children are saying?” Jesus answered, “Yes. Haven’t you read in the Scriptures, ‘You have taught children and babies to sing praises’?” Then Jesus left and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night.

This reading plan discusses Jesus’ roles as Prophet, Priest, and King.
Donkeys might not seem like spiritual mentors, but in the Bible, God used them to teach us lessons. This 3-day devotional will guide you through three unique Bible stories involving donkeys. Each one contains a different lesson about hearing God’s voice, following His lead, and remembering that it’s not about us—it’s all about Jesus. Can God use even a donkey to speak truth into your life? Absolutely. So open your heart—and maybe get ready to say “Amen” or even “Hee-Haw!”

Do you do this? This opens doors and solves problems. This inspires others to do this, too—it’s the good kind of contagious. When they tell our life stories, we want them to put this at the top. We are hardwired for this. Because of what God did for us, This is What We Do.
In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, you may find yourself carrying heavy burdens. As things go out of control and nothing seems to be going according to plan, remember, God always has a plan. Even when we do not understand what is happening, we can learn to respond with praise–laying it all down at His feet, and celebrating His victory over all our enemies!
