“The
Lord swore an oath to David… ‘One of
your own descendants I will place on your throne.’” Psalms 132:11 NIV
Ancestry
– being able to trace your family tree – was important to the Hebrew people. In
the Gospel of Matthew, the first 17 verses trace Jesus’ ancestry back to
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
As
Christians, we watch for prophesy fulfilled. In this covenant with His people,
God promises that someone from the house of David would sit on the Kingdom
throne forever. We believe Jesus is that Messiah, the King for whom we have
been watching and waiting.
The
Bible also tells us where the House of David will be headquartered. “The Lord has chosen Zion.” Ps. 132:13a
So
now we know the family tree and the city. Watch for other prophesies fulfilled
as we close in on the Easter season. There are hundreds!
