EPISODE 1068 – REJOICE AT THE REVELATION OF JESUS

REJOICE AT THE REVELATION OF JESUS

“Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.” 

Acts 17:3 (KJV)

Whenever the scriptures are unfolded you must see Jesus. He is the meaning of the scriptures.

Jesus Christ is the story told in the Old Testament. When you understand that all that was communicated in the Old Testament is to bring every reader to Christ, you will see the oneness of the entire Bible.

Different men, in different historical timeliness and with distinct experiences were inspired by the Holy Spirit to write God’s thoughts with their unique styles of expressions, and had one central theme of thought, Jesus Christ.

These may not have necessarily grasped the full revelation of what they wrote. They might have thought of writing about the situation around them and the possible things which might come, but every bit of it was part of the beautiful story of this Jesus who is the Christ.

He is the central theme of Genesis as the Creator, the Life and the Promised seed.  

“In the beginning God created…” (Genesis 1:1).

“All things were made by Him and without Him was not anything made that was made” (John 1:3).

The entire events we witnessed in Genesis through the scriptures, were the unfolding of this utterance of God, “the seed of the woman shall bruise the head of the serpent” (Genesis 3:15).

The goal of the adversary was to destroy the coming of this seed. But God encrypted the appearing of the seed. By a careful study of the scriptures, you will realize that all that the devil was doing from the time Adam and Eve were out of the Garden of Eden, even through Abraham and his descendants even to the time Jesus was born (or the Word became flesh), was to destroy the seed before it germinates.

God was giving His people, hints of the coming of the Seed. Through the writings of the Prophets, the Priests, the Kings, the Judges, and the Psalmists, the Lord was announcing the manifestation of the Seed. The adversary realized through observation that, the seed was going to come from the descendants of Abraham and Jacob, but was many centuries behind what God was doing.

While the devil thought Isaac and his descendants were the Promised Seed, God’s original Seed was encrypted.

The adversary arrived at this conclusion when he heard this:

“And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.” Genesis 12:7 (KJV).

What the adversary didn’t hear was this:

“Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” who is Christ.” Galatians 3:16 (NKJV)

All that happened from Genesis to the time Jesus was born were testimonies of Him.

“Then he carefully unveiled to them the revelation of himself throughout the Scripture. He started from the beginning and explained the writings of Moses and all the prophets, showing how they wrote of him and revealed the truth about himself.” Luke 24:27 (TPT)

Beloved this is the reason you must rejoice in this season.

“The shepherds returned to their flock, ecstatic over what had happened. They praised God and glorified him for all they had heard and seen for themselves, just like the angel had said.” Luke 2:20 (TPT).

When you see Jesus, you must rejoice. And that is what the scriptures help you to do. To have a picture and accurate revelation of Jesus.
