GOD’S WORD FOR DECEMBER 20
PROPHESIES OF JESUS THE MESSIAH FOR DECEMBER 20~ ~Number 15 ~ ~ Reviled and Mocked ~ ~ Prophesied in Psalm 22:6-7 “But I am a worm, and no man; A reproach of men, and despised by the people.
All those who see Me ridicule Me; They shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,”
Fulfilled in Matthew 27:39-44~ ~ “ And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads and saying, “You who destroy the temple and build it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross. Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe Him. He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ Even the robbers who were crucified with Him reviled Him with the same thing.”
Number 16 ~ ~ Cast Lots for His Garments ~ ~ Prophesied in Psalm 22:18 ~ ~ “They divide My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots.”
Fulfilled in John 19:23-24 ~ ~ “ Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece. They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:
They divided My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.”
