Deuteronomy 18:18-19 NKJV
I will raise up for them a Prophet like you (Moses) from among their brethren, and will put My words in His (Jesus) mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name (God’s name), I will require it of him.
During Moses’ days, God revealed to Moses that HE would send Jesus, the Messiah, to come and live among the people. He would be a great prophet for the people of Israel.
I will raise up for them a Prophet like you (Moses) from among their brethren, and will put My words in His (Jesus) mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name (God’s name), I will require it of him.
During Moses’ days, God revealed to Moses that HE would send Jesus, the Messiah, to come and live among the people. He would be a great prophet for the people of Israel.
God told Moses to implore the people (Israelites) to listen
to all that Jesus would speak to them when he appeared, or else HE would
require of them. This means there are great penalties and consequences for
rejecting Jesus’ words by the people.
This tells us Jesus was appointed to speak every Word of God revealed to Him from above for all the people during His ministry on earth.
If we are the children of God, undeniably, we must hear His Words. His Words are life and truth. They reveal the mystery of Heaven and the fulfilment of prophecies.
John 8:47 NKJV
He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.”
One day, all that Jesus had spoken and the prophecies given by the prophets and Psalms will be appropriately fulfilled.
Luke 24:44 NKJV
Then He (Jesus) said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.
Where can we find the Words spoken by Jesus?
Words highlighted in “RED” in the New Testament should capture our attention. All about Jesus was recorded in the four gospels: Matthew, Luke, Mark, and John, while Jesus was ministering on earth.
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, thank You for coming to this world to redeem me from eternal destruction by Your death on the cross. Thank you for YOUR precious Words given to all people. Grant me wisdom, understanding, and revelation as I read Your Word, for they are a lamp to my feet and light to my path. In Jesus’ name, amen!
