There are prophecies the Messiah would be raised from the dead, but where is the resurrection of Jesus prophecy in the Old Testament? Is there an Old Testament prophecy of resurrection on the third day? Read or listen to this chapter from A Father Offers His Son for answers.

Psalm 16 is a messianic psalm, which means that even though David wrote it, we can read it as though Jesus is speaking. In verse 10, he says, “For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.” Peter quotes this verse in Acts 2:27, and Paul quotes it in Acts 13:35 as prophecies of Jesus’ resurrection. Isaiah 53:10 also prophesies of Jesus’ resurrection:
Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him;
He has put Him to grief.
When You make His soul an offering for sin,
He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days,
And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.
Jesus did not have physical children (seed), but He has spiritual children. Isaiah says He will see these children after He has been killed—“bruised… put to grief… [made] an offering.” Jesus would die, but the Father would “prolong His days,” referring to His resurrection.
While most Christians know it was prophesied that Jesus would be raised from the dead on the third day, few Christians can find the prophecy in the Old Testament. Why is that?

The humility of Christ is one of the most astonishing truths in all of Scripture.
Though Jesus is fully God, He did not come into the world displaying royal splendor. He was born in poverty, raised in obscurity, rejected by His own people, mocked as a king, and crucified on a cross—yet He never stopped being King.
In this message from Philippians 2, I explore what Scripture teaches about Christ’s humility, the Incarnation, and why Jesus laid aside His visible glory without surrendering His deity or authority.

🎥 Watch the sermon:
Jesus stood before Pilate falsely accused, unjustly treated, and surrounded by hostility — yet He remained calm, composed, and fully trusting His Father.
In this message, we draw three powerful lessons:
1️⃣ Trust in God produces composure in trials
2️⃣ The Innocent One suffered for the guilty
3️⃣ Jesus isn’t on trial—we are
If you're walking through difficulty or injustice, Christ’s example will strengthen your faith and point you to hope.
