Text —Deuteronomy 18: 16-19

Message

Prophets of God generally predict things that must surely come to pass. Seeing into the future, they speak in the name of the Lord. The Bible says, “… when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that the LORD hath truly sent him” (Jeremiah 28:9). Moses predicted that the Messiah (the Prophet) was to be a man, a Jew who would declare the word of God unto them.  

The prophecy was fulfilled in Christ. Christ alone was like unto Moses as a Prophet. Christ was like unto Moses in respect to His office of mediation between God and man, in faithfulness, in signs and wonders and as a lawgiver. Christ alone resembles Moses but infinitely greater. Christ is the King of kings and Lord of lords. In all available records of universal history, none was like to Moses as Christ was. Phillip exclaimed, “we found Him of whom Moses in the law and the prophets did write to be Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of God.” Follow Christ and not a social media idol.
