You are going to ride that MULE...

² Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.
³ And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
⁴ All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
⁵ Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.
⁶ And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,
⁷ And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.
⁸ And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
⁹ And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
¹⁰ And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
¹¹ And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

As it goes, Jesus went into the temple without the mule...the people look their garments from their homes and laid them down for Jesus Christ's mule to walk upon and the garments were lined with Palm leaves a massive patched quilt...makes you realize how quick word of mouth can travel...He didn't even have to wait for the path to be made...and the whole city was in excitement for Hosanna means "Lord Save Us"  ...It is a beautiful word indeed! Hosanna!

Then a week later the same crowd crucified Him; then 50 days later they all repented and received the Gift of the Holy Ghost which is eternal life. Hosanna was done!

But Jesus Christ had to ride that mule which was up in age...then He goes into the temple and becomes and shows a rage of disappointment for them making His house a den of thieves...for he was heeding to their Cry Hosanna! IT HAD TO BE DONE...you cant buy the truth and then sell it...it must be done in truth as is commanded.  It will bare and come back and bite you if it is sold.

Mules are stubborn and loppy eared and they make really weird noises...but you will have one in your life, and with JESUS CHRIST that thing will beat you down sooo bad you wont make it...because WITHOUT JESUS CHRIST you can do nothing! All Circumstances wins over you and beats you down...because your frustration of even having to look at that thing makes you mad...you have to have Jesus Christ as in Good of LIFE and be good in life in ways to make that thing mind...otherwise it is going to do what it wants...and it don't care if you watch...you have to have a certain wisdom...Now why did God create such a thing? I have often wondered, because they are just awkward...to the core, and they look at you with that look of a donkey and they move along at a slow pace...with sad eyes because they are a donkey...they have their own odor as well...so you can imagine when it is not cared for it gets all the more stubborn and it is hard to break...you saddle or latch him/her up...they will just stand there and not move no matter what you do...they wont move if you don't take care of them...it can take a beating it still   will    not   move...you can kill him or threaten to kill him he wont move...a carrot wont even make him move...
they get so mad because they were not groomed or missed their meal...or if you don't reverence them...they wont reverence you...they have a temper like you wouldn't believe though it be subtle until it is settled according to the donkey then he will move...like ok we got that taken care of...they don't care for affection like a horse is like an intelligent dog but greater...he/she will do it..NOT THAT mule...HE WANTS WHAT HE WANTS he/she likes to groomed might as well carry the brush and pale with you with some of them...or if their clothes or saddle is too tight they wont move...so it is a search and find sometimes...you will honor that mule or they will not listen to you...they can't help that they are a mule...but they have an attitude of independence and they don't need friends or comforts like a horse...if you are mean it wont do nothing...but what it wants to do...it don't care, it can take care of itself because he/she is a mule...yet they are God's creation which blows my mind as such a thing no matter how you paint him/her it has that look...as

See im a mule and there is nothing I can do about it...I will keep my dignity as a mule...respect is given nothing happens the best thing is honor...the cream of the crop of respect...Like Jesus Christ did...before the horse...crazy but true, even His mother expecting Him was on a mule not an horse...they kick when they are mad...oddly even God used a donkey to talk first...what is so favored about a mule...his Favorite animal is the HORSE...but why has HE blessed the MULE...people don't like a mule...you get it...He is saying they are good...some people hate them things...for they are trying to the ignorant owners and unrespectable ones...Mules are not pretty or handsome but their good...

see and I believe this a strong fact...no one has written a book about a donkeys or mules as keeping the blood line of an Arabian Horse or any other horse...people see them...they automatically say that is just a mule...THIS IS A HORSE...it is just the way it is...Even a Zebra is a horse and glorified as so in prestige with other horses but NOT the mule...there is always one ear pointing in another direction 90% of the time as though he is never at full attention....he was made to do this...they are good on rugged terrain but not climbing like a horse ...you must make the path for them...and the mule expects it...some people just get upset looking at them...people don't paint a picture of a mule like they do a horse...not that honor honor in caring for them...if you groom them certain days they expect it the rest of their lives, and same way of feeding them and putting their clothes on them right...It has to be done the rest of their lives ...

you honor him like Christ honored them...don't write a book it don't work its nonsense to them...they cant tell the crowd like or dislikes them...like horse...you have to use him and don't be ashamed of him for they wont do anything...you can dislike him but don't be ashamed of him....because there is nothing shameful about him...

now I have never even had one or been around one...but every time I see one, my head shakes a little and moves back ...and that a mule with a low tone...and with a clear expression of disapproval...
they are not stupid they are born set in their ways...they are strong and mostly self sufficient so when you take them by the rein you mustn't act your ashamed or sigh at them...they sense that but not as a horse the positive and negative...a mule only senses the negative and it will halt...it don't approve and wont move...and when the negative is gone they will move...but don't give them a façade it wont work with them...make sure they have all they need and are comfortable...and they will do their work or what is required at hand...even VETS don't even like mules because they kick them worse than horses, because they don't like them sticking them and they feel their sigh of having to work on the mule...mules are smart they don't compare themselves to a horse or anything of the sort they don't have a rivalry like who is the leader either...they just do their work...

it makes sense why God chose that to be the first animal to talk...they don't discriminate, they don't hate, but hate pessimistic people and being mistreated...They are good creatures and they can make you laugh but it means nothing to him/her...it is just the way of life...they leave you alone about your business, they are not nosey, they just work and expect to be fed and cared for...so if the donkey don't make you smile is it you not making you smile...9 times out of 10 its the owner in misery or is a pessimist and the mule keeps about his business and is more content than trying to make something like that laugh or smile...for they have more honor and keep to their business and wait till it is right, they don't even miss a previous owner because they get their honor that is all that is required and grooming, certain feed, and so on...and they live freely and mind their own business...they are good creature and glory in nothing

It is the Prophet of Zechariah which prophesied of the MULE. Yet remember Ephraim is the Leaven of Fools which exceeded in the death the death of Abner by Joab over Asahel' death, He died the death of a fool, as the Rich man's death. they exceeded their stupidity... I found it last night...it is just amazing he speaks of Ephraim...

Zechariah 9:9~17
⁹ Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
¹⁰ And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.
¹¹ As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
¹² Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;
¹³ When I have bent Judah for me, filled the bow with Ephraim, and raised up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Greece, and made thee as the sword of a mighty man.
¹⁴ And the Lord shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord God shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
¹⁵ The Lord of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour, and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar.
¹⁶ And the Lord their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land.
¹⁷ For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.
