Day 13 – The Branch
Jeremiah 23:5 – Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
Today’s name for Jesus, “Branch,” brings a picture into my mind. Jeremiah 23:5 calls Him the righteous Branch. Our Heavenly Father picked Israel to be His own. He cared for them and provided for them while they wandered in the desert. He gave them the Law to abide by. When they could not, He paved the way for a “Branch” to come forth to provide for the ultimate sacrifice, once for all.
Isa 11:1-2 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: (2) And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;
Zec 3:8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
Zec 6:12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
Christ did not come to eliminate the Law but to fulfill it, amen? Our Branch died and paid the price for all our sins! In Him we grow and spread the Good News to others.
Joh 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
