What if someone predicted that God would come in exactly 483 years 9 months and 21 days? What if that prediction was 483 years and 9 months ago? In other words in 21 days God will be here.
GREAT LEADERS TRUST GOD's WORD!
That is what God told Daniel about the Messiah. He predicted the exact date the Messiah would ride into Jerusalem on a donkey and be presented as King.
"From the going forth of the command to rebuild and restore Jerusalem it will be 483 years 9 months and 21 days."
At that time they used the Babylon calendar not the current calendar we have today.
GREAT LEADERS TRUST GOD's WORD!
In Nehemiah chapter two King Artaxerxes I commanded to rebuild and restore Jerusalem.
(He was the sixth king of kings of the Achaemenid Empire from 465 BCE to 424 BCE. He was the son of Xerxes I of Persia and Amestris, daughter of Otanes. Artaxerxes)
Daniel 9:25 "Now listen and understand! Seven sets of seven plus sixty-two sets of seven[e] will pass from the time the command is given to rebuild Jerusalem until a ruler—the Anointed One[f]—comes. Jerusalem will be rebuilt with streets and strong defenses,[g] despite the perilous times."
26 "After this period of sixty-two sets of seven,[h] the Anointed One will be killed, appearing to have accomplished nothing, and a ruler will arise whose armies will destroy the city and the Temple. The end will come with a flood, and war and its miseries are decreed from that time to the very end."
Proclamation to restore and rebuild Jerusalem. March 14, 445 BC Nehemiah 2
The Anointed One would be presented as King. April 6, 32 AD
The Anointed One would be killed.
From March 14, 445 BC to April 6, 32 AD is exactly 483 years 9 months and 21 days.
What happened on April 6, 32 AD?
Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey on Palm Sunday. Jesus was presented as King.
"Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!
Shout, Daughter Jerusalem!
See, your king comes to you,
righteous and victorious,
lowly and riding on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey."
Zech 9:2
Four days later Jesus was executed on Passover. Three days after that Jesus rose from the grave and defeated death.
This is amazing! There is no doubt Jesus is who He said He was. Emanuel or God with us.
Only God can predict the future with this accuracy.
Jesus said, "I tell you these things before they happen so when they do happen you will believe."
No other Playbook has ever predicted the future yet the the Bible has done it with 100 percent accuracy 100's of times.
Friends, you can Trust the God of the Universe with everything and situation you are going through. He loved us enough to be Betrayed and Executed so we could have our sins and mistakes forgiven.
Whatever you may be going through God has it under His control and will cause all things to work out. Romans 8:28
GREAT LEADERS TRUST GOD's WORD!
Just Go!!
