Greeting Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
Today's Blog Title: The Suffering, Praise, and Posterity of the Messiah
Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 22:1-31
Today's Key Verse: Psalm 22:1 "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning."
This Psalm is a profound lament psalm that concludes as a triumphant song of Praise for God's Deliverance. Even though this song speaks of David's own distress and the Lord's deliverance of him, it is also prophetically describes in remarkable detail Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection
The language David used here in this psalm to describe his own predicament is prompted by the Holy Spirit. It expands a thousand years to describes precisely the experiences of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ both in His excruciating death and His victorious resurrection.
David felt forsaken by God, but Christ was literally abandoned by Him. In history's most awesome moment God the Father withdrew His presence from the Son; The Holy One isolated Himself from one who at that instant in time became sin for us. The victim who is the true subject of this psalm died, and was raised to life again.
This psalm has two sections:
(1) A description of the agony of impending death, an interplay of lament, confession, and petition (verses 1-21)
(2) An ecstatic celebration of great victory, a series of vows to praise God in the congregation (verses 22-31).
Today's Hymn: "Christ Liveth In Me"
Once far from God and death in sin, No light my heart could see;
But in God's word the light I found, now Christ liveth in me
Christ liveth in me, Christ liveth in me
Oh! What Salvation is this, that Christ liveth in me.
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Thank You for giving us life and protecting us from harm. You are worthy of all our praise! Keep us always close to you and may the light of Jesus within us shine through, so that others will see His Love and mercy in us and they will want what we have in You.
Amen
