Jewish Prophet

October 18, 2018

The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers.  You must listen to him.

“The Lord said to me: “What they say is good.  I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers;  I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.”

– Deuteronomy 18:15, 17-18

 

Can you believe that Moses himself let the Israelites know ahead of time that in the future God would raise up a prophet just like him from among their own people?!!  This is an actual account of what Moses told God’s chosen children written in Dueteronomy!  What Moses specifically said was that this prophet would come from among thier own brothers just like him and that they MUST Listen To Him!  So this Most Definitely means that whoever this prophet was HAD To Be Jewish!  The Lord repsonded to Moses and confirmed to the Israelites that he would assuredly raise up for them a prophet from among their own brothers!  So what Exactly did God’s children Need to be watching for??  A prophet from among their own brothers!  Even the Lord went on to say that He would put His Words in this prophet’s mouth and he would tell them Everything the Lord commanded him to say.  You see, Jesus (Yeshua) was Jewish and he was also a prophet!  He was concieved by God’s Holy Spirit and birthed by the virgin Miriam into the line of David!  It is possible that Yeshua could be born into the line of David because Yeshua’s earthly father was Joseph, who is clearly a descendant of David.  It doesn’t matter if a child is a direct bloodline descendant or not, because even if Miriam were not a descendant of David, she would have married into David’s line and her child would additionally be born into David’s line.  So Jesus (Yeshua) is Most Assuredly a part of David’s line of descendants!  And this is important in understanding that Jesus (Yeshua) was INDEED a part of God’s chosen people!  Jesus (Yeshua) was also a prophet because he was concieved by God’s Holy Spirit, which makes him The Son of God!  And there is no doubt that God’s One and Only Begotten Son is going to be a prophet of God ( a mouthpiece for Him) because God would use him to make an IMPACT on the whole world for His Kingdom by letting him know everything in advance through His Holy Spirit!  Jesus (Yeshua) is a Jewish prophet from God who not only made an Impact on the world in his time, but continues to make an IMPACT on hearts today!  Has he made an Impact on YOU??
