A MESSIANIC TESTIMONY

Most testimonies are written on reflection;

The Messiah’s testimony was very different.

His testimony was spoken by way of prophecy;

He gave thanks to the Father for His mercy.

 

The Father’s hand was there every step of the way;

There was absolute confidence without any dismay.

The LORD’s hand was there right from the beginning;

In the LORD there may indeed be tremendous rejoicing.

 

There were hidden years of the Messiah;

The time was not wasted pursuing vain desires.

The LORD trained and equipped Him for ministry;

To the Messiah was given strength and integrity.

 

The Messiah was close to His Father from the beginning;

He was able to discern the LORD’s unerring leading.

The Messiah’s testimony is the most challenging to read;

May we be moved, the LORD’s leading, to seek!
