“Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and having salvation, lowly and riding on a donkey, a colt, the foal of a donkey.(Zechariah 9:9)
Zechariah wrote those previous words in 518 B.C. The following were penned by David when Solomon was becoming king around 1015B.C
He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,Isaiah jotted down these words around 500-600 B.C.:
And from the River to the ends of the earth.
Those who dwell in the wilderness will bow before Him,
And His enemies will lick the dust.The kings of Tarshish and of the isles will bring presents; The kings of Sheba and Seba will offer gifts. Yes, all kings shall fall down before Him; All nations shall serve Him.(Psalm 72: 8-11)
Many missed these words when they were written. While they had current meaning, the prophesies would come true of Jesus, our Savior and King. When Jesus fulfilled them, many more were oblivious to the meanings. Thousands of years have now passed yet many still do not fully believe!Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant,
And as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness; And when we see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him. He is despised and rejected by men, a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him and by His stripes we are healed.(Isaiah 53:1-5)
Old news is still GOOD NEWS . . . not fake news! Do YOU believe?
