Remember Jesus, by whom God has spoken

Long ago, at many times in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son. Hebrews 1:1-2a

The entire Old Testament foreshadows the coming of the Messiah. Jesus has always been with God, and has always existed and is thus present on every page of the Bible. Jesus himself taught this - 

For if you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote of me. John 5:46 

Before we had Jesus, we had promises. The promises told of a king who would serve and sacrifice and suffer in order to put everything back the way it's supposed to be. Isaiah 53 is a prime prophecy of King Jesus to come, and tells of one who was "despised and rejected by man" and "was pierced for our transgressions". Isaiah continues to say that "by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous" and that he "makes intercession for the transgressors". I encourage you to read the entire chapter, but even those excerpts scream Jesus. 

Because many years after the prophecy, something amazing happened. God himself did come. He looked like us. He walked among us. Jesus was God with us. He was despised and rejecte and he did die to bear our iniquities. He has risen as our king and make many righteous as he continuously intercedes for us. 

And God us still speaking to us by Jesus His Sion. One of my favorite hymns asks 

What more can He say than to you He hath said, 

To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled? 

If you are in Jesus, God speaks to you. You can know God. You can know His word. You can know His character. You can know His promises. 

For all the promises of God find their yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our amen to God for his glory. 1 Corinthians 1:20 

I'm going to post the true and better video again, just in case you missed it. Jesus is here, and he is the truth and the best.
