The Spirit of Prophecy continued sermon
[If we were to look in the HOLY Bible's Book of Daniel the Prophet the 9th chapter. We first note that in this chapter Daniel continually prays to the LORD daily facing his home country of Israel or towards Jerusalem, but wonders why he is in a foreign country and not his homeland. He manages to discover from the Book of Jeremiah written some 40 years prior that Jeremiah the Prophet had prophesied of this captivity in Babylon, and the people violently refused to believe Jeremiah and had even went as far as to forcefully take Jeremiah in the opposite direction of Egypt which is where he died, but the prophesy remained true and there were still yet 30 more years to go for them to remain in the captivity of Babylon according to the Word from the LORD recorded by Jeremiah. Daniel here begins to pray and repent on behalf of his people and himself as a result of learning such obstinacies and rebellion of his own people. The end result is the LORD reveals to him the coming of the Messiah who will take away not just Daniel's sin but also "the sins of the world."]

In the HOLY BIBLE we read Daniel the 9th Chapter and we pick up in the 2nd verse......I, Daniel, understood from the Scriptures, according to the work of the Lord given to Jeremiah the Prophet, that the desolation of Jerusalem would last seventy years. 3) So I turned to the LORD GOD and pleaded with him in prayer and petition, in fasting, and in sackcloth and ashes.
4) O LORD, the great and awesome GOD, who keeps his covenant of love with all who love him and obey his commands, 5) We have sinned and done wrong, We have been wicked and have rebelled; we have turned away from your commands and laws. 6) We have not listened to your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7) Lord, you are righteous, but this day we are covered with shame---the men of Judah and people of Jerusalem and all Israel, both near and far, in all the countries where you have scattered us because of our sins......17) Now, our GOD, hear the prayers and petitions of your servant. For your sake, O LORD, look with favor on your desolate sanctuary. 18) Give ear, O GOD, and hear; open your eyes.....
...19) O LORD, Listen!, O LORD forgive! O LORD, hear and ACT! for your O my GOD, don't delay, because your city and your people are called by thy name.

20) While I was speaking and praying, confession my sin and the sin of my people Israel and making my request to the LORD my GOD for his holy hill----21) While I was still in prayer,, Gabriel, the man I had seen in the earlier vision, came to me in swift flight about the time of the evening sacrifice. 22) He instructed me and said to me, "Daniel, I have now come to give you insight and understanding. 23) As soon as you began to pray, an answer was given, which I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed. Therefore, consider the message and understand the vision:

24) " Seventy Weeks" are determined for your people and your holy city to finish the transgression, to put and end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the MOST HOLY.
25) Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One [The MESSIAH], the ruler, comes, there will be seventy weeks, and sixty-two 'weeks'. It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. 26) After the sixty-two 'weeks' {sevens}, the Messiah will be cut off and will have nothing. The people of the ruller who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.
27) He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'Week'. In the middle of the 'week' {seven} he will put an end to sacrifice and offering.
....and on a wing of the temple, he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, untill the end that is decreed is poured out on him.
[Keep in mind what we are looking at is the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY in action, this is in fact a unique quality about the Messiah, that is not found in other religions of the world to this day. The act of speaking and writing of things before they occur followed by historic actuation pertaining to the Prophet.] Other prophecies spoken and written concerning the Messiah occur at different times and ages apart from Prophet to Prophet, age to age and the arrival of the that Messiah occurs just as prophesied.
Let us continue on to examine some of the Prophecy of Isaiah the Prophet, Jeremiah, Moses who also wrote of the coming Messiah, King David and more, when we finally arrive at the moment of the New Testament many scriptures refer back to these Prophets and their writings written of him even though they were written many years prior to his arrival.
