Sovereignty Over Subversion

In Luke 22:1-6, there is a rapid coalescing of corrupt and evil forces that conspire to crucify Jesus. Luke wants us to remember and to rejoice that evil never triumphs over the saving purposes of God. In fact, God has ordained at this Passover festival, He would hand over his Passover Lamb for the sins of the world. This Sunday’s message is called Sovereignty over Subversion. This Sunday is Palm Sunday and you and I are meant to rejoice that no one is merely taking Jesus’ life from Him. He is offering Himself up of his own free will for you and I. The freest person in his passage is Jesus because no one is controlling His destiny except His heavenly Father. Knowing what Jesus has done for us in going to the cross this Easter is meant to make us the freest and happiest people on earth. We are no longer under the dominion of sin and Satan. We have a Savior who has conquered all the forces that conspire against us, internal and external. And, in the words of the apostle Paul, “If God is for us, who can be against us?”. Let’s come and begin our celebration of Easter by rejoicing in Jesus’ triumph over evil at the cross. Hosanna in the Highest!
