And when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. When he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount that is called Olivet, he sent two of the disciples, saying, “Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say this: ‘The Lord has need of it.’” So those who were sent went away and found it just as he had told them. And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?” And they said, “The Lord has need of it.” (Luke 19:28-34 ESV)
Jesus has said all He needed to say. It was time to move into action. So He pulled ahead of the crowd and gave His disciples instructions to move into action. In doing so he taught them an important lesson: whatever it takes to carry out God's plan, He will provide. The long journey to Jerusalem is over, but now the hard journey begins...
