TRIUMPHAL ENTRY

Psalm 47: 1,2, 3

Oh, clap your hands, all ye peoples; shout unto GOD with the voice of triumph. For the LORD Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth. He shall subdue the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.

Applause is a type of praise; it is normal, in creation, that the thunder of clapping can be heard. Listen to the trees, or the roaring thunder; listen to the clap of the waves against the sea shore or the roar of the wind in the pine trees. All creation claps its hands in praise of the Creator.

It is true, that when we are filled with praise of the Living GOD, no force or evil can invade us; our heart is fixed on the LORD. The LORD GOD is awesome, He subdues people and nations by the Word of His mouth; He has given to us the authority to be His vessels of overcoming power through His Son JESUS.

CLAP YOUR HANDS AND RAISE THE SHOUT OF PRAISE TO THE LORD; HE IS TRIUMPHANT.

TRIUMPHAL ENTRY

Matthew 21: 8, 9

And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and spread them in the way. 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."

It was the time of Passover and the multitudes of people were in Jerusalem for the Passover feast. This was a time to remember the deliverance of the Children of Israel from the bondage under Pharaoh, when the LORD GOD saved the people who put the Blood of the lamb on the door posts and the lintel of their house.   Now, JESUS was entering into Jerusalem and they viewed Him as their conquering King.

How right they were! But not in the way they thought. JESUS was fulfilling His Mission on earth, to set ALL the captives free and to break, once and for all time, the bondage of sin. Yes, JESUS would shed His blood for the remission of sin and by His Blood He would reconcile the world to GOD, for all who believed in Him.

"Hosanna" means praise, but it also means "save us". The people were shouting for JESUS to save them; with His Blood, He did. 

JESUS rode into Jerusalem in humility and in peace, on the back of a lowly donkey; when He comes again, He will come riding a white stallion, with the whole company of heaven with Him.

RIDE ON KING JESUS!!!!!

HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST - 6 OPEN DOORS

Psalm 9: 1-3

I will praise Thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will show forth all Thy marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in Thee; I will sing praise to Thy Name, O Thou Most High. When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at Thy Presence.

THE DOOR OF ALL THE MARVELOUS WORKS OF GOD, OPENS WITH PRAISE.

Fling wide the gates of praise and the doors will open to great and marvelous manifestations of the power of GOD. Fling wide the gates of praise and healing and miracles will be manifest. Fling wide the gates of praise and the avenger will be silenced. Praise is powerful; no force can silence the praise of the heart in love with JESUS; no force can put out the fire of praise, it consumes all the darkness of the foe, by drenching it with light.

THE LORD HAS ORDAINED PRAISE; IF WE FORGET TO PRAISE, THE STONES WILL CRY OUT IN AN ERUPTION OF PRAISE TO GOD.

HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST - 6 OPEN DOORS

II Chronicles 5: 13, 14

It came to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying,"for His mercy endureth forever" - that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD. So that the Priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of GOD.

PRAISE OPENS THE DOOR OF THE SHEKINAH GLORY TO COME IN

Notice that the singers and the trumpeters were as one, making one sound, not many different sounds, ONE SOUND in praising and thanking the LORD. Unity in the worship of GOD is essential for the ushering in of the power of GOD. Read the account of the fall of Jeicho in Joshua 6: 1-16.  The rams horn blew on the seventh day and Joshua commanded the people to shout the victory shout. ALL WERE IN ONE ACCORD.

We must strive to be in one accord in the One LORD, praising and thanking Him,  so that the power of GOD will flow without restriction. There is One LORD, one faith and one baptism, one GOD and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. (Ephesians 4: 5, 6). When we are in one accord in the LORD, the power of GOD will open doors, the glory will come as a cloud and those who see it will be converted.

DOOR 3 - OTHERS WILL SEE THE GLORY AND BE SAVED.

HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST-6 OPEN DOORS

Psalm 22:3

But Thou art Holy, O Thou who inhabitest the praises of Israel.

PRAISE OPENS THE DOOR OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD

The LORD GOD is Holy and He inhabits our praises. Inhabit means to live in or to dwell within;. therefore, when we praise the LORD He is in the house. "Know you not that you are the temple of the living GOD who is within you." Look at II Corinthians 6:16b "For ye are the temple of the living GOD; as GOD hath said, 'I will dwell in them and walk in them; and I will be their GOD, and they shall be My people."

Yes, we are the temple of the LORD GOD, who dwells in us, Praise Him and watch the manifestation of His Presence in us and around us, transforming the environment into Holy Ground. 

LET US ARISE AND BE THE HANDS AND FEET OF JESUS, WHO DWELLS IN US!

HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST-6 OPEN DOORS

Psalm 67: 5-7

Let the people praise Thee, O GOD; let all the people praise Thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and GOD, even our own GOD, shall bless us. GOD shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.

THE FIRST DOOR TO OPEN IS BLESSING

Today, let us bless the LORD for all that He has done for us. We breathe because He has given us breath; we are alive, because He ordained life for us today; we have His Word to live by and we have His blessing to walk in. He has provided our Salvation and our prosperity now and for Eternity. Let us Praise the LORD.

Let us join the whole universe and the angels and archangels; lifting our voice in endless praise of the LORD GOD Almighty, Who was and is and is to come. Let us kneel before our Maker in humble thanksgiving for His great LOVE.

GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST.

HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST

Psalm 150: 6

Let everything that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

Breath is a gift from GOD, we have breath to praise the LORD, because He has willed that we have our breath. If He takes our breath, and returns it to Him, we die. While we have the gift of breath, we should be so grateful, that we express our gratitude with endless praise.

There are many things that open to us, when we praise the LORD, but that is of least importance; praise and thanksgiving to GOD for Him and His love is of highest importance. We have a choice in the use of our gift of breath; do we use it for ourselves or do we use it for GOD?

As for me and my house, we will praise the LORD for who He is and for what He has done for all that have breath.

PRAISE YE THE LORD
