"Do not be afraid, Daughter Zion; see, your king is coming, seated on a donkey's colt." ~John 12:15, NIV
Jesus did a lot of things, and most of them were predicted in scripture. On Palm Sunday, He rode into Jerusalem on a donkey's colt to fulfill scripture in Zechariah that gave courage to Israelites.
The King is of course the Messiah, who would make a new covenant. Because Jesus fulfilled all the scripture regarding the Messiah, all of the promises concerning Him came to pass as well - and life everlasting, at that.
If Jesus gave hope to Israelites hundreds of years before He was born, can't He do so now for us, hundreds of years after His death? If the promises were fulfilled, then won't His promise to love us, to never leave nor forsake us also be fulfilled in our lives?
