Today is Wednesday, January 29, 2020 and here is your Daily Devo.
Zechariah 9:9-10 pointed directly to Jesus, alluding to His humble origins. This prophecy described the coming King as one who would ride into Jerusalem—on what we now know as Palm Sunday—on a donkey. The image of the Messiah riding on a donkey was a picture that the Messiah would advance a kingdom, not of war, but of peace. His rule would be a peaceful rule. He would not wage war with other nations, but instead He would be the ambassador of peace. His reign would not only exist locally over the Jewish nation, but would also extend to the ends of the earth. It would entail all people, those of all tribes and tongues.
The beauty of this is that Christ invites His followers to play a role in the growth and rule of His kingdom as He encourages us to witness to His kingdom all the way to the ends of the earth.
Think about this: How should the fact that Jesus reigns over the nations motivate us toward missions? What are you and your local church actively doing to ensure the gospel reaches the corners of the earth?
