Holy Week Monday
On the Monday of Holy Week, Christ enters the Temple and drives out those who had turned it into a place of trade.
He declares: “My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of robbers.” (Matthew 21:13)
This moment reveals His authority and zeal for the holiness of God’s house.
The Temple is not a marketplace, but a place set apart for worship, reverence, and prayer.
It’s also a moment that challenges us personally. It’s easy to let other things take priority. Noise, routine, distractions… even in the spaces meant for God. Christ’s actions remind us to step back, clear what doesn’t belong, and return to prayer with honesty and reverence.
