ANCIENT PROPHECIES ON JESUS' DIVINITY

 


By Michael Benson Ajayi 

 " And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.  And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him." Genesis 17:15‭, ‬19 KJV

  The new testament says Jesus Christ came to fulfill old testament prophesies about himself.   The scriptures says " And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

" Luke 24:44 KJV

  His earthly lineage was foretold to be the "seed of a woman" in Gen3:15  the Bible says "But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law," Galatians 4:4 KJV

   He was described as the heir to the throne of David ( Isaiah9:6-7) and the bible speaks of " The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham."  Matthew 1:1 KJV  .He is the promised seed of Abraham (Gen18:18, Gal.3:16,19) 

   His rejection by the Jews was prophesied in (Isaiah9 :1-2) the Bible says " He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not." Isaiah 53:3 KJV

The old testament scriptures spoke of his persecution and Crucifixion . He was accused by false witnesses ( Psalm27:12 ; Matt26:60-61) He suffered for our sins " Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.  But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.  He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

"(Isaiah 53:4‭-‬5‭, ‬8 KJV. , Matt8:16,17) 

   His feet and hands were pierced which was not common with Jewish tradition when the prophesy was made  ( Zech12:10, Psalm 22:16, John 19:37; John 20:25-27)  and was given gall and vinegar psalm 69:21; John 19:29;Matt 27:34,38) and his side was pierced (Zech12:10 Jn19:34) and was crucified among thieves (Isaiah53:12; Matt27:38 )  and was sold for 30 pieces of silver ( Zech 11:12; Matt26:15;Matt27:3-10)  

  Prophet Daniel prophesied about the exact year of the death of the Messiah in 30AD (Daniel 9:25)  Daniel prophesied and taught that 483 years after the decree to rebuild Jerusalem had been issued, Jesus Christ the Messiah would be here on earth.

  Prayer : Heavenly father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as Lord and saviour and receive the Holy Ghost and power to take a righteous stand regardless of the circumstances in Jesus name. Amen

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord....

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative...
