Today, we see that the Prophet Nathan began curing “Confusion Headaches” with Catholic Prophecies in 2 Samuel 7:1, 8-12, 16.
He ended King David’s, and the world’s “Confusion Headache”, with these Prophecies: (#1) “And when your time comes and you rest with your ancestors, (2) I will raise up your heir after you, sprung from your loins, (3) and I will make His Kingdom firm. (4) I will be a Father to Him, and He shall be a Son to Me. (5) Your house and your Kingdom shall endure forever before Me; (6) your throne shall stand firm forever.’”
Those six Prophecies came true: The Catholic Church has “endured” for 2,000 years, growing ever closer to God while the Pope, each a Successor to David and Jesus, has had a “throne”.
Catholics are blessed to know that Nathan was Prophesying Jesus and His Church-Creating Word to His First Catholic Pope: “And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
On Christmas Eve, His Church wants us to think about more Bible Prophecies from Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist!
Luke 1:67-69: “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel; for (7) He has come to His people and set them free. (8) He has raised up for us a mighty Savior, (9) born of the house of his servant David.
Through his Prophets, He promised of old that (10) He would save us from our enemies, from the hands of all who hate us.
(11) He promised to show mercy to our fathers and (12) to remember His holy covenant.
This was the oath He swore to our father Abraham: (13 to set us free from the hand of our enemies, (14) free to worship Him without fear, (15) holy and righteous in His sight all the days of our life.
(16) You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High, (17) for you will go before the Lord to prepare His way, (18) to give His people knowledge of salvation by the forgiveness of their sins.
(19) In the tender compassion of our God, the dawn from on high shall break upon us, to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death, and (20) to guide our feet into the way of peace.”
Catholics think about those Prophecies, and we say: “Thank you, God, for letting us Be Catholic, and have ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’!”
