Title: The Lord Jesus Christ, the Most Blessed One
In the first week of the new year, by realizing the mysterious words contained in the words about the blessed man in the first chapter of the psalms, we shall have a greater understanding of the mystery of the gospel contained in the psalms and learn more about the Lord Jesus Christ who saved us.
After Jesus’ resurrection, from what he said unto his disciples, we are able to learn the gospel in the psalms:
We need to ponder the written order of the scriptures to get a deeper understanding of who is blessed man. Chronicles is a book that records how the Israelites were scattered as captives in Babylon due to their sins. The book of Ezra records the reunion of the scattered people, and the book of Nehemiah the reconstruction of the city that had collapsed. In the book of Esther, Esther, a Gentile woman, married and held the wedding feast for seven days. In the book of Job, the time of Jacob’s trouble is revealed, when the Israelites suffered for seven years on the earth. Finally, in the psalms, the Lord Jesus Christ is revealed as the blessed man who judges the world and establish his kingdom.
We can also see that there have been a series of events in the past related to Israel. Jerusalem was devastated by General Titus in AD 70 (as in 2 Chronicles), and from that time on, the Jews were scattered around the world and wandered in the world. Eventually, the Jews returned to their homeland in Palestine by the Declaration of Belfour proclaimed in 1918 (as in Ezra), and in 1948 they built their country (as in Nehemiah).
Sooner or later, the Gentile church shall be lifted up to heaven in the day of Christ(Rapture) to have the marriage supper of the Lamb for seven years as Esther(Rev. 19:9). And in the earth, the Jews shall be persecuted by the Antichrist for seven years as Job(Rev. 12:13). At the end of the Great Tribulation, the Lord Jesus Christ the most blessed shall appear as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He will judge the world and guide the remnant of Israel to Petra to feed them for 1260 days, and let them enter the his Millennial Kingdom(Rev. 12:14).
In the Hebrew Scriptures, Psalms are followed after Malachi. Malachi prophesies the words of the Second Advent of Jesus Christ and the judgment of God. We can also see another mysterious revelation in which Psalms are followed after Job. Forty second chapter of Job is a typological example of how God double blesses the Jews who repent after severe sufferings for 42 months (the latter three and a half years) during the Great Tribulation in the period of Jacob’s Trouble in the future, bringing them into the Millennial Kingdom of Christ. In Job chapter 42, Job finally repents before God who appears before him. We shall see the Jews repent after seeing Jesus appearing at the end of the Great Tribulation:
Therefore, the blessed man who appears in the first chapter of the Psalms speaks as a type of the Lord Jesus Christ, who appears to the world after the Great Tribulation in the future. The Bible says that God blessed Jesus the most:
That’s right! Since Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and was born as the only man without sin. he is the very one that received the most blessing among all people. In addition, the Lord is a blessed one that is to marry with the children of God regenerated by the Holy Spirit by faith in Him.
God chose Abraham to make blessed people through the Lord Jesus Christ, and gave him the word of promise about them who shall be blessed in the future. Apostle Paul testified of them who shall be blessed one:
That’s right! Those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, who received the most blessings from the Father, and receive the Holy Spirit shall be blessed through Him. Those who believe in Him are saved by grace (Ephesians 2:7-8), marry Him, and become joint heirs with Him (Rom. 8:17).
Therefore, those who have been reborn by the Holy Spirit and become blessed ones do not follow the counsel of the ungodly who is deceived by Satan, and because of this they shall not sin and not sssit in the seat of the scornful who are mocking the second coming in the end time. The bless one likes to read and listen the words of God during the day time, and meditate them in the night. The Bible testifies of them:
The blessed one, like a tree planted by a river, bears fruit according to the seasons, and his leaves do not dry out and prosper in whatever he does. He overcomes Satan’s temptations and do not commit sins, so that he shall not be accused by the devil and prosper in the Lord. Also, the Bible speaks of the prosperity of the blessed one through prophet Jeremiah:
