How Did Jesus Fulfill Prophecy?

“Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.”

MATTHEW 5:17-18

Ponder This

Joyce and I have a son named David who lives in Spain. When I want to call David, I pick up the phone and dial a specific number, and he’s on the other end.

But think of how the mathematical situation works out. When I pick up the phone, I eliminate everybody who doesn’t have a telephone. When I start to dial the number, I dial the country code and begin to narrow down exactly who I am calling. I dial the area code. Then I eliminate everybody in that country, who doesn’t have that area code. And then I dial his personal number. When I dial the first number, I eliminate everybody whose phone number doesn’t begin with that number. And then the second number, we eliminate everybody whose phone number doesn’t begin with those two numbers, and on and on until the phone rings and I hear His voice on the line.

From the time of the Old Testament, the prophecies of the Messiah began to narrow down His identity. Jesus fulfills the Old Testament in prediction at every level from the tribe He would come from to the family lineage He would have. He isn’t a random man who lived a perfect life. He is the one God chose at every level to be our Savior.

• What are some prophecies you know from the Old Testament that Jesus fulfilled?
• How do these connections help build faith in Jesus?

Practice This

Praise God for the different ways He fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies through Jesus.
