TOPIC : FOLLOW HARD AFTER GOD
TEXT: "The multitude... cried out, saying "Hossana to the son of David" (Matthew 21: 9)
If you follow sports at all, you know that sport fans can change like the weather. A teams player can hear seventy thousand cheering voices if he does well or seventy thousand booing voices if he messes up.
Sport figures easily fall from grace because people are fickle--eager to follow the one who makes them feel good, yet willing to turn against that same person if all does not go well.
Scriptures contains of examples of fickleness that is far more serious. A great multitude in Jerusalem, praised, honored and cheered Jesus on the Sunday He entered the city riding on the donkey(Matthew 21:6-11). But just a few days later, some of those same people may have been in the crowd calling for Jesus' crucifixion (27:20-23). On Sunday, they worshipped Him, but on Friday they didn't want Him around anymore.
Let's not waver in our relationship with the Lord. Sometimes we worship Jesus heartily on Sunday, but the very next day we live as if we find His presence repulsive and intrusive. Or we tell him on Sunday that we love Him, then fail to obey Him throughout the week.
Don't be a fickle follower, be a committed follower--worship Him every day, not just on Sundays. Worshipping God should be a full time experience. So stay focused and follow hard after Him today
