THE FULFILMENT OF THE SCRIPTURES

“Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing;”

The Scripture He read from Isaiah was thrilling!

The Kingdom of God was described so clearly;

But so few could fully understand prophecy!

 

The Poor were often neglected by society;

But they were included in His Kingdom truly;

The Broken-hearted need not languish away;

Nor need the Oppressed be filled with dismay.

 

The Gospel of the Kingdom would be proclaimed;

All may hear and respond to God’s holy name.

His Kingdom is meant for all who would repent;

To give them His glorious kingdom is His intent.

 

The Lord Jesus chose to fulfil the Scriptures;

His blameless life would display many features.

The Kingdom of God is real and relevant;

Responding with faith is all-important!
