P27 is now "Faith Journey"

Psalm 139:16 “You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in Your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.”

Here’s a brief list of some of the “smartest” we know and their predictions about the future of computers in our world. It’s worth a bit of a laugh.

1. In 1943, IBM Thomas Watson predicted that "there is a world market for maybe 5 computers."
2. In 1949, Popular Mechanics predicted that "computers in the future may weigh no more than 1.5 tons."
3. In 1981, Bill Gates (Creator of Microsoft) predicted that “650K (650,000 bytes) of memory will be enough for anyone”. Today the off-the-shelf standard would be 2 Gigabytes or 2,097,152K.

The Shattered Crystal Ball analyzed predictions of psychics over 3 year period. 98% were totally incorrect. 60% of psychics were 100% false. Anyone can be wrong 98% of the time.

So much for man’s attempt at the future. Does God know the future?

In the Old Testament of the Bible, there are 300 predictions about Jesus Christ the Messiah. 48 specific details about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. What are the probabilities of OT prophecies about Christ becoming reality?

1. Birth in Bethlehem from tribe of Judah,
2. Preceded by messenger
3. Enter Jerusalem on a Colt
4. Betrayed by a friend
5. Hands and feet would be pierced
6. Wounded by enemies
7. betrayed for 30 pieces of silver
8. Spit on and beaten
9. Betrayal money would be thrown in the Temple and then given to buy a potter’s field
10. He would be silent before His accusers
11. He would be crucified with thieves
12. People would gamble for his garments
13. His side would be pierced
14. No bones would be broken
15. Body would not decay
16. Buried in a rich man’s tomb
17. Darkness would cover the earth. Remember, he was crucified on Passover…full moon…eclipse impossible.

The probability of these 17 Bible prophecies occurring is equal to 1 chance in 480 Billion & 1 Billion & 1 Trillion or 1 in 480,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 This is a calculated number through scientific study by Auticians. It’s NOT a guess.

Here’s my point: We have scientific proof that God knows the future. He knows forumyour future. His predictions are right 100% of the time

Here’s my response: I want to stay as close to Jesus as possible. I choose to be a Christ Follower in every aspect of my life.

My Prayer: Thank you God that you know me perfectly. I am confident that you know what my plans are today and for our future. I agree that you know what is happening in my life right now, the challenges and the blessings. Today, I choose to follow you. By that I mean that I want you to direct my life and I commit to following you, even though it means making changes to my plans. You are my God, my present and my future. I will worship you with my life today. Amen.
