HYMN #21: THE ASCENSION
Psalm 21
In this psalm of David (although it is not listed by most as a Messianic Psalm), one can see prophesy of the ascension of the Messiah. Much focus has been placed on the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Christ; but often times the ascension of Christ gets ¡§lost in the shuffle¡¨.
Psalms 21
Christ¡¦s Joy
Jesus came to this earth to ¡§seek and save what was lost¡¨; and through His life, death, and resurrection He succeeded in that purpose.
Hebrews 12:1-3
Christ¡¦s Victory
Acts 1:1-11
At Christ¡¦s ascension, we are given several proofs of His victory:
„© Jesus is alive!
„© Jesus has already defeated, sin, death, and Satan.
„© Jesus is at the right hand of the throne of God and is our mediator in Heaven.
„© Jesus has left us with the Holy Spirit.
„© Jesus is coming back!
Philippians 2:6-11
Psalm 20:6-9
