"The Things Concerning Himself"


"And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me." (Luke 24:44)

The scripture truly is a "Him" book and I noticed again a Psalm that was fulfilled in the life of Christ as He ministered with His disciples.

In Psa. 107:29-30 it says, "He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven."


Then in John 6:15-21 there is the record of the disciples being caught up in a storm on the sea of Galilee and Jesus walking out to them, then in verse 21 it says, "Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went."

What an amazing unfolding of what was pictured by the psalm writer!

Certainly, the volume of the book is about Him!

It is a truly beautiful thing to see our blessed Savior on every page of the Bible. It is a gift from God when he reveals these gracious gems of insight to us. How rich we are to have His Word and to be able to hide it in our hearts.
