27 Prophecies Fulfilled in One Day - Happy Resurrection Day!

Prophesy = Prediction of the future under the influence of divine guidance

The God of the bible has extended Himself in order to communicate with mankind.  Using faithful servants, God speaks forth His mercy, His justice and His love.  It was in love that the Creator of the universe appointed prophets to speak forth on His behalf and occasionally foretell events yet to be, in order that we might be able to identify mercy and love as coming from God Himself, and that finally, all mankind might be able to identify and receive his Anointed One, Yeshua, the Messiah.

On the day that Messiah gave his life as a sacrifice for sin, twenty seven such prophecies or predictions were fulfilled.  This was accomplished that we might not doubt, but believe in the one whom the Lord send to bring redemption.

Conclusion

“In order that the scripture might be fulfilled” is a phrase that appears over and over in the gospel accounts of the life and death and resurrection of Yeshua (Jesus), the Messiah. 

The fulfilment of the prophecies concerning Messiah far exceed what has been presented here.  Here we have only spoken of those prophesies fulfilled in a single day.  God has given us enough to have faith.  Enough to believe.  Enough to say “yes” to the offer of eternal and abundant life He extends to us.  Enough to see that Yeshua was more than a remarkable man or a knowledgeable teacher. 

But these are written that you may believe that Yeshua is the Messiah, he Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name – John 20:31
