Welcome to DAY 36 of the Lent Lectio Divina series

Throughout these 6 weeks we will pause each day for a few moments to

Read a passage of scripture, Reflect on what God is saying to us through it, and Ask the Holy Spirit to help us as we step into the invitation this passage offers us

Before we begin this reading, let’s take a moment to now to release any fear, shame or doubt and relinquish it to Christ on the cross. Jesus’ last three words on the cross were 

“It is finished!”.

This week’s breath prayer is

At the cross… It is finished!

This prayer is not just for us, feel free to also use it as a declaration over a loved one who may need this prayer of intercession in their current season of life.

Use your rhythm of breathing to help you pray:

Breathe in slowly and deeply as you receive God’s forgiveness through Christ…
Breathe out slowly and completely as you release your sins…

On your next in breath pray, “At the cross…”

And as you breathe out pray, “It is finished…”

At the Cross… It is finished

Today’s Bible Reading comes from Matthew 21:1-11 

As we read this passage now, be listening for one word or phrase the Holy Spirit highlights to you.
START
As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”
4 This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:
5 “Say to Daughter Zion,
    ‘See, your king comes to you,
gentle and riding on a donkey,
    and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’” 
6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on. 8 A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted,
“Hosanna to the Son of David!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” 
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
10 When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”
11 The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”
