TRIUMPHANT: The Lamb and His faithful ones will triumph forever - Revelation 17:14

“The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. These kings have one purpose: to yield their power and authority to the beast. They will make war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will triumph over them, because He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and He will be accompanied by His called and chosen and faithful ones.” Revelation 17:12-14

Eternal Truth:

• “And to Him was given dominion, glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and people of every language might serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which will not pass away; And His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed." Daniel 7:14
• "To the one who is triumphant, I will give the right to sit with Me on My throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with My Father on His throne." Revelation 3:21

Worship & Praise:
I crown Jesus as my LORD and KING! I worship You, Almighty God, for always leading me in triumph in Christ Jesus, the LORD of lords and KING of kings. I am forever grateful, Lord Jesus, for the day You called me out of darkness and translated me into Your marvelous light. I thank You for choosing me when I felt like a nobody and for giving me a life of purpose as a child of God. Holy Spirit, help me manifest the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Christ Jesus and His victory over the powers of darkness everywhere, especially when I face evil adversaries or am hated for His name. Strengthen my resolve to remain steadfast and faithful until death, just as Christ did for me. I pray in the mighty name of Jesus, my Savior. 

ALERT: Blessed is the one who stays alert for the coming of Christ - Revelation 16:15

"See, I AM coming like a thief. How blessed is the person who remains alert and keeps his clothes on! He won't have to go naked and let others see his shame." Revelation 16:15

Rewarding Truth:

• "And now, little children, remain in Christ, so that when He appears, we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming." 1 John 2:28
• "Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning. Then you will be like servants waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once. Blessed are those servants whom the master finds alert when He returns. Truly I tell you, He will dress Himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and He Himself will come and wait on them." Luke 12:35-40
• "Be on your guard and stay alert! For you do not know when the appointed time will come." Mark 13:33

Prayer:

I am staying alert and waiting for Your return, Lord Jesus. Please teach me, Holy Spirit, to embrace a spirit of readiness so that I remain alert and prepared when my Master returns. Awaken me to repent if I become prideful or distracted by the lies of the devil, who prowls around like a roaring lion seeking to shame and devour me. Use me this day to help someone who is overwhelmed with anxiety and filled with shame. Use me to strengthen their faith so they believe in Jesus and begin getting ready for our Lord's coming. I ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, my risen Savior. 

JUDGEMENTS: True and just the judgments of the Lord God Almighty - Revelation 16:4.7

The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood. Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say: “You are just in these judgments, O Holy One, You who are and who were; for they have shed the blood of Your holy people and Your prophets, and You have given them blood to drink as they deserve.” And I heard the altar respond: “Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are Your judgments.” Revelation 16:4-7

Eternal Truth:

• “For He has set a day when He will judge the world with justice by the Man [Christ Jesus] He has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising Him from the dead.” Acts 17:31
• “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.” 2 Corinthians 5:10

Worship & Praise:

O Holy One, my soul longs for You at night; indeed, my spirit seeks You at break of dawn. Great and marvelous are Your works forever and ever. When Your judgments come upon the earth, the people of the world learn righteousness. No matter what I see or hear happening in this world, my heart is at peace knowing that You are Sovereign over everything. I bow in worship to thank You for sacrificing Your beloved Son on the cross and raising Him from the dead to save me from the judgment of eternal condemnation and the lake of fire. I confess Christ Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Hosanna in the highest!

PARADISE: Jesus died to save you and bring you to paradise - Luke 23:43

As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus.
A large number of people followed Him, including women who mourned and wailed for Him.
Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me; weep for yourselves and for your children.
For the time will come when you will say, ‘Blessed are the childless women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’
Then “‘they will say to the mountains, “Fall on us!” and to the hills, “Cover us!”’ For if people do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”
Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with Him to be executed.
When they came to the place called the Skull, they crucified Him there, along with the criminals—one on His right, the other on His left.
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”
And they divided up His clothes by casting lots.
The people stood watching, and the rulers even sneered at Him. They said, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is God’s Messiah, the Chosen One.”
The soldiers also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vinegar and said, “If You are the king of the Jews, save Yourself.”
There was a written notice above Him, which read: "This is the king of the Jews."
One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at Him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save Yourself and us!”
But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence? We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this Man has done nothing wrong.”
Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.”
Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with Me in paradise.” Luke 23:26-43

Worship & Praise:
Jesus died to save others, but did not save Himself. I worship You, Heavenly Father, and praise You for sacrificing Your only begotten Son on the cross so that all who believe in Him should not perish but have eternal life. I thank You, Lord Jesus, for laying down Your life as the Passover Lamb to forgive our sins—past, present, and future—and wash them all away with Your precious blood that was poured out at the cross. Like the criminal who was crucified beside You, I ask You to remember me and fill me with hope that I will be with You in paradise when my time comes to leave this earthly life. I exalt and magnify Your holy and mighty name, my Messiah, LORD, and Savior. Hallelujah!

BLOOD: The blood of Jesus seals the forgiveness of your sins - Matthew 26:27

Holy Week: A prophetic event that occurred on Thursday evening.

Now, as they were eating, Jesus took the bread, and after blessing it, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.” And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you; for this is My blood of the new covenant, which ratifies the agreement and is being poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.” After singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away because of Me this night, for it is written in the Scriptures, ‘I WILL STRIKE THE SHEPHERD, AND THE SHEEP OF THE FLOCK WILL BE SCATTERED.’ But after I Am raised to life, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.” Matthew 26:26-32

Eternal Truth:

• "Therefore Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant." Hebrews 9:15
• "For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for your souls upon the altar; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul." Leviticus 17:11
• "In Him [Christ] we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace." Ephesians 1:7

Worship & Praise:
Abba Father, I worship and praise You for the precious and spotless blood my Lord Jesus poured out for the forgiveness of my sins. Thank You for fulfilling Your promise of a new and everlasting covenant that Jesus made possible on the cross through His atoning blood. I will forever be grateful to You and my Shepherd for laying down His life to save all who trust in Him as their Messiah and confess Him as LORD. Thank You, Mighty Savior, for being the Passover Lamb, who takes away the sin of the world and will return as the risen LORD and King of Glory, who will reign in righteousness for all eternity. Hallelujah and Amen.

REMEMBER: Remember what Jesus did for you, just as He remembers you - Matthew 26:13

Holy Week: An event that occurred on Wednesday (two days before Christ's crucifixion)

Meanwhile, Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon, a man who had previously had leprosy. While He was eating, a woman came in with a beautiful alabaster jar of expensive perfume and poured it over His head. The disciples were indignant when they saw this. “What a waste!” they said. “It could have been sold for a high price and the money given to the poor.” But Jesus, aware of this, replied, “Why criticize this woman for doing such a good thing to Me? You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have Me. She has poured this perfume on Me to prepare My body for burial. I tell you the truth, wherever the Good News is preached throughout the world, this woman’s deed will be remembered and discussed.” Matthew 26:6-13

Praise & Worship:

I will remember what my Savior did for me, and He remembers all that I do for Him. I come with offerings of praise and worship, Lord Jesus, like this woman who poured out a beautiful alabaster jar of expensive perfume over Your head and prepared Your body for burial. Thank You for going to the cross and laying down Your life unto death so I could be forgiven of my sins and have an inseparable relationship with God our Father and You for all eternity. Let me be a vessel that pours out the precious perfume of Your love, grace, mercy, and truth, Mighty Savior, by sharing the Good News of salvation with shattered and hopeless souls. Please strengthen my courage, Holy Spirit, to persevere in faith when I face criticism for being a child of God and a disciple of my Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

HOSANNA: Hosanna, the King has come to save us - John 12:13

Holy Week: An event that took place on Tuesday (three days before Christ's crucifixion).

The next day, the great crowd that had come for the Passover festival heard that Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem. They took palm branches and went out to meet Him, shouting, “Hosanna! [save now]”
“Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”
Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, as it is written: “Do not be afraid, Daughter Zion; see, Your King is coming, seated on a donkey’s colt.” 

John 12:12-15

Praise & Prayer:
I bow before You, KING of kings and LORD of lords, like the great crowd offering praises of gratitude for turning our darkness to light. Thank You for humbling Yourself and riding on a donkey's colt to go to the cross and save us from the wages of sin and death. I kneel before You on behalf of my family and friends who are afraid and separated from experiencing a personal relationship with our Heavenly Father. Hosanna, O Lord, Save Now! Abba Father, I come in the blessed and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior, to supplicate and pray for the salvation of my children, family, and friends.
