It is treasure worth much more than gold and silver to see the evidence that God has provided with regards to His beloved Son. The treasury is the heart where we deposit or store up these heavenly treasures.
We are taking stock of the golden nuggets of evidence
that God has given about His beloved Son in the flesh as Jesus of Nazareth that
we have deposited in the treasury of our heart.
From the 1st trailhead of Isaiah 52:13, we managed to pick up
five lumps of golden evidence testifying to Jesus of Nazareth having fulfilled
the Isaiah 52:13 Messianic
credentials:
Golden Nugget 1
We read from John
19:28-30 of how Jesus “Knowing that all
was now finished, said in fulfilment of the Scripture, “I am thirsty.”” Then, He cried
out, “It is finished” and thereby signified the successful completion of
His Messianic mission. As you will get
to see later, Jesus was thirsty as a result of dehydration from being
crucified. Spiritually speaking, He absorbed all the fire of judgment but yet
not consumed. Hence, He thirsted. This
was typified by the burning bush that Moses saw as recorded in Exodus 3:2.
Golden Nugget 2
From
Hebrews 12:2, we see that Jesus “Who
for the joy of accomplishing the goal set before Him endured the
cross, disregarded the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne
of God revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work.”
Golden Nugget 3
Matthew
27:26 and Luke 23:33 bear testimony to the crucifixion of Jesus of
Nazareth.
Golden Nugget 4
Acts
1:11 puts on record the ascension of Jesus of
Nazareth to heaven.
Golden Nugget 5
Philippians
2:9 is the record of God having highly exalted Jesus of Nazareth and bestowed on Him the
name which is above every name.
