JESUS IN PROPHECY: A Stone Cut Out Without Human Hands.
| Spiry Tee
"As you looked, a stone was cut out by no human hand, and it struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, all together were broken in pieces, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, so that not a trace of them could be found. But the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth."
Daniel 2:34-35 ESV
It's fascinating to see Jesus in prophecy. Everything Jesus did for us was written before He came. He walked right into the will of God for Him and what a blessing it was for the whole world.
Nebuchadnezzar had a dream of four kingdoms beginning with his own, Babylon. During the days of the fourth kingdom God would set up a kingdom that will crush all the kingdoms of this world but will itself endure forever.
In the dream Nebuchadnezzar saw a "Stone cut out by no human hand" that crushed all the other kingdoms. That Stone is Jesus the King. He came preaching the good news of the kingdom of God for which He was sent to set up in the earth. This Stone was born without human agency. "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost." (Matthew 1:18 KJV).
Jesus was born of a virgin. No human seed was in His blood. He was born of God. That is very instructive when it comes to understanding who we are in Christ Jesus. Jesus was born without human agency so is our new birth.
The Bibles says this about us: "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
(John 1:12-13 NKJV).
We are born of God, not of human flesh or human will. We are truly sons of the Most High God. We are partakers of His divine nature. As He is so are we in this world.
We hail from the second Adam(Jesus). The first Adam sinned and died (so does all who bear his image), but the last Adam obeyed and lives forever (and so does all who bear His image). We bear the image of the second Man from heaven. The first Adam brought death but the last Adam brought life eternal.
SPEAK OUT.
I was born of God not by human agency. I belong to a new stock of the Man from heaven.
