20240929 6PMp DT Psalm 22
The writer of this psalm wrote this down a thousand years before it happened. At least 9 specific events that were predicted and then happened a thousand years later.
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? The broken relationship between Jesus and his Father is expressed here. He says, “I am a worm”, … Christ becomes unworthy, because he takes the sin of the world upon himself. The psalm is a reflection of what takes place in Matthew 27:41. The crowd, by their words were fulfilling what had been written a thousand years before. The bulls of Bashan grew powerful and strong because of the lush pasture. Lions are powerful. Dogs surround them. The clothes were divided, and lots were cast for his robe. And then, there is a change. Verse 22 on reflects the resurrection, which takes place after the crucifixion. The book of Hebrews tells us of what then happens. Verse 28 provides glimpses of the second coming of the Lord. We are living proof of what is written in the scriptures. The work of our salvation is fulfilled when Jesus says, “It is finished.” It is remarkable that God’s promises are fulfilled.
Speaker: David Tyndall.
