The Final Month of a Unique Year Scott Pauley

2020 has become a byword for the unexpected and unusual. While we have all laughed and cried at the twists and turns of this year, let me encourage you not to blame 2020. God gave us this year to live and serve. 2020 will forever be a historical marker, but wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could look back and say that was when the Lord began a deep work in our hearts and nation that continued for years to come?

As we approach the final month of this unique year I am truly grateful for how the Lord has guided and provided. He always does. Several weeks ago I had a fairly mild case of COVID. My smell and taste have not yet returned (hoping that changes for the holidays!), but my sense of God’s graciousness to me has been heightened. I give Him glory.

December is always a slower month for evangelistic and revival meetings. Tammy, Grant, and I look forward to having the girls home from college and spending time together as a family. Please pray for us as we approach these year end meetings…

Samson and The Sorek Valley

Mathematically, it is impossible that one man could fulfill so many unique prophecies, many of which were related to the actions of others toward him. How can you orchestrate your death in such a specific manner i.e. By crucifixion (not invented) between criminals, being given vinegar to drink while dying, being killed at the hands of the Gentiles, after being betrayed by your dear friend? These are a fraction of the hundreds of such prophecies Jesus fulfilled. It is only possible if that Man was the God-man - Jesus Christ. Our Approach The prophecies in our list are many of those connected to the circumstances, surroundings, characteristics, events, manners, and traits that the Lord Jesus fulfilled during His earthly ministry. It is by no means comprehensive but serves as a reference and devotional guide to those seeking the Lord Jesus. Types and figures have been omitted, for they are woven throughout the entirety of Scripture. Truly, every part of the Written Word points to the Word made flesh, Who dwelt among us (John 1:14). We trust this list of 55 prophecies about the first coming of Christ will serve to demonstrate the total confidence you can have that Jesus is the Messiah, the Redeemer, The Son of God.

God’s Work Is Worldwide. Even if we do not know of it, or see it. Do not be discouraged at the size of the task before us. We are not alone.

    Yes Bro. Scott, I told someone the other day that the old adage, ” Hindsight is 2020″ will probably fall out of use ’cause NOBODY is gonna be wanting to look back at this one, ha!
    Blessings on the journey!
