Prophecy Fulfilled

 

Today is Good Friday. One of the remarkable things about this event is how specifically it was prophesied in Psalm 22, among other passages in the Old Testament. Here is just one example,

“16 For dogs have surrounded Me;
The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me.
They pierced My hands and My feet;
17 I can count all My bones.
They look and stare at Me.
18 They divide My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots” (Psalm 22:16-18).

This is an incredible Psalm, that recounts what Jesus would experience on the cross, and it was written around 1000 years before it occurred.

So, in this video I give a reading of this Psalm, and after that is a song I recently published (yes with AI) that is based on this Psalm.

This song is perfect for reflecting on Jesus' sacrifice on Good Friday and remembering what he did for us.

It also has an incredible guitar solo in it.

Here are some of the lyrics:

Verse 4

Poured out like water on the ground,

My bones are out, my strength unbound.

My tongue is dry, my heart like wax,

They pierce my hands, my garments tax.

They stare, they scoff, divide my robe—

Yet You, O Lord, my hope and globe.

Bridge

Deliver me from sword and flame,

From lions' mouths and bulls untame.

I’ll sing Your praise before the crowd,

Declare Your name both clear and loud.

All ends of earth shall bow and say:

"The Lord is King! His reign holds sway!"
