Psalm: 2 Meditation: JohnThis is John’s testimony again of who Jesus is, where he came from and John’s purpose for being here. The rejection of Jesus by his own people and the world had been prophesied but the spiritual blindness caused by their own sin prevented them from responding. Does the last verse seem like …

Psalm: 20 Meditation: AmosThe Lord desires righteousness in others like His own. In prophecy, the term ‘day of the Lord’ can refer to individual judgements or the final judgement (end of time).  This passage infers that not all that seek this day will be happy with their role or result. How many times did the …

Psalm: 1 Meditation: MattHow keenly aware of the Messianic prophecies was Matthew? How about the people of Jerusalem? Here the description of the donkey’s colt and the people’s response to the procession show how important these prophecies were to first century Jews. The symbols and expectations would soon fail them as the desires for conquest …

Psalm: 146 Meditation: AmosThis passage begins a series of prophecies against six nations that are Israel’s neighbors. It starts by reminding everyone that God has seen the evils they have done. They will be punished for those deeds. The punishments use poetic verse indicative of annihilation and divine retribution. God’s charges and judgments against Israel …

Psalm: 101 Meditation: MattLike many religions today, the first century Jews had many different views on the Messiah. Here Jesus disturbs the disciples by prophesying his own future.  To those that were looking for a conquering warrior, this portrait  might have been too great a shock. Jesus’s discussion of the temple tax and subsequent miracle, …

Psalm: 5 Meditation: MattThe truth of  God’s Gospel does not go out without meeting resistance. Jesus warns not only where/who this resistance will come from but also how the strength and knowledge to respond will be given. There has been much disagreement to the “when” in this prophecy. Do you think this was for the …

Psalm: 24 Meditation:  JohnIt’s one thing that someone sacrifices themselves for others, it is altogether different to sacrifice someone else out of fear or to maintain the status quo and/or your own influence. The fear of Roman reprisal caused Caiaphas to plot to kill and later condemn Jesus. It is ironic that he would prophecy …

Psalm: 50 Meditation: MattThis passage creates more questions than it seems to answer. Herod, like so many prideful and paranoid kings, thinks he can overcome the prophecies of God by eliminating the future King. This continues and results in the death of all boys in the area of Bethlehem under 2 years of age.  We …

Psalm: 26 Meditation: MarkPeter had great courage in the garden and followed Jesus and his captors to the house of the High Priest. While in the courtyard, Peter fulfilled Jesus’s prophecy through his denial of Jesus and was overcome by emotion. Why did Peter fail so miserably? What would you have done next if you …

Psalm: 93 Meditation: Nahum: How does the Lord work in this world? This prophesy shows that even if God uses someone as an instrument of punishment, He will still hold the same individuals accountable for their rebellion against him. The Assyrian Empire was one the most merciless civilizations and God used them to punish Israel …
