Here’s your daily dose of what matters most!
Will you shout hosanna this Palm Sunday? Let it mark the beginning of a different kind of week—one where you pay attention to the Savior, make room for Him, and move through each day like you’re walking with Him through the most significant days the world has ever known.
Scripture
“And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.”—Matthew 21:9
Quote
“The sacred events between Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday are the story of hosanna and hallelujah. Hosanna is our plea for God to save. Hallelujah expresses our praise to the Lord for the hope of salvation and exaltation. In hosanna and hallelujah we recognize the living Jesus Christ as the heart of Easter and latter-day restoration.”—Gerrit W. Gong, “Hosanna and Hallelujah—The Living Jesus Christ: The Heart of Restoration and Easter”

Living the Principle: Will You Shout Hosanna This Palm Sunday?
- Speak His name out loud in a quiet place and ask for His help with something specific you’ve been carrying, then stay still long enough to notice what comes to mind or what you feel prompted to do next.
- Choose one part of your life you’ve kept guarded—an unresolved conflict, a habit, or a decision—and act on a clear next step that aligns with what you know He would ask of you.
- Mark the beginning of this season in a visible way by changing something in your environment—a note on your mirror, a verse on your phone, or a symbol placed where you’ll see it—so your attention keeps returning to Him throughout your day.
