Lowly, and Mounted on a Donkey

As Jesus approaches Jerusalem, His entry will be crucial. As the rightful King, He could have ridden in on a horse in a declaration of war. Instead, Jesus will ride in on the foal of a donkey in fulfillment of Zechariah's prophecy to cut off the bow of war. Our King established His kingdom as one where humility triumphs over pride, self-sacrifice triumphs over violence, and peace ultimately triumphs over war.
