It was foretold that the Jesus would ride into Jerusalem upon an ***. Zec 9:9
Both men and women, even prominent Israelites, rode asses. Solomon, the son of David, rode to his anointing to office on his father’s she-mule, a hybrid offspring of a male ***. 1Ki 1:33-40
It was therefore most appropriate that Jesus, the one greater than Solomon, fulfilled the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9 by riding, not a horse, but an ***’ colt on which none of mankind ever sat. Luke 19:30, 35

It was pre-arranged with the owner, Elijah Mark, who also owned the house with the upper-room.

According to the account found at Matthew 21:1-3, Jesus, after arriving in Bethphage (on his way to Jerusalem), instructed two of his disciples to go into the village where they would find a donkey tied and a colt. They were to untie them both and bring them to Jesus. Then Jesus specifically said: 'If anyone questions you about what you are doing, tell them the Lord needs them and at that "he will immediately send them."
It should be readily apparent to even the casual reader that no theft is involved here.

Actually, Jesus used remote viewing to describe the owner of the animals and inform His disciples of the location of the animals, including the owner's anticipated response to them after approaching his animals and how they should react with a particular statement in order to gain his consent. The animals were taken with consent after this statement was made to him, which implies that Jesus either knew the man and had standing permission to borrow his animals, or he was 'visited' in a dream or vision, and this 'password' was the agreed upon identifier helping him recognize the men coming to borrow his animals on Christ's behalf.
"And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of the wealth of unrighteousness, so that when it fails, they will receive you into the eternal dwellings." (Luke 16:9).
We are instructed to learn these inspired arts also.
