Celebration of Christ: Jesus, the Long Expected Messiah


Before the coming of Christ there were so many prophetic message pointing to his coming. His death and resurrection were the ultimate proof that he was indeed the long expected Messiah. In the gospel of Luke 24:35-48 Jesus reminded his followers, “These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled.” Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, and said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.”With his resurrection our Lord Jesus Christ has proved to the world that He is indeed the long expected Messiah, the only One that can guarantee total forgiveness of sins. He is our Saviour and our Messiah. To him be glory and praise both now and forevermore - Amen!

Inspirational Message: With the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ we don't need another proof. Indeed, Jesus Christ is the long expected Messiah.

Prayer to our Long Expected Messiah: Lord Jesus Christ, Moses and all the Old Testament prophets foretold of your coming. When you finally appeared, John the Baptist introduced you as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. with your resurrection you have proved to the world that you are indeed the Long Expected Messiah. To you be glory and praise both now and forevermore - Amen!
