PSALM 118:24

Pastor Rick Jackson

I. THIS IS THE DAY FOR MANIFESTING

1. This is the Day the Lord hath Made for Manifesting His Sovereignty [Ps. 118:22-24, 2:1-9]

               

1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

2 Timothy 3:9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men...

Revelation 15:4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.

2. This is the Day the Lord hath Made for Manifesting His Scripture [Ps. 118:22-23, Mt. 21:42]

Romans 3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

Titus 1:3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;

3. This is the Day the Lord hath Made for Manifesting His Saviour [Ps. 118:22-24, Ps. 2:10-12]

Mt. 21:42-44 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

1 John 1:2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)

1 John 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.

1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

II. THIS IS THE DAY FOR MORE

1. This is the Day for More People to be Saved [2 Corinthians 6:2]

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

2. This is the Day for More of His People to be Seeking Him [Lam. 3:18-32]

3. This is the Day for More People to be Satisfied with Him [Ps. 90:12-17]

III. THIS IS THE DAY FOR “MAY”

1. This Day is Given Us that the Father’s House May Be Filled [Luke 14:23]

And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

2. The Day May Be Given for Us to be Sifted [Luke 22:31]

And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:

3. The Day the Lord May Come for Us [John 14:3, Matthew 25:13]

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
