Words of Testimony

Can I get a witness? Have you ever asked that question...maybe using other words. In other words, have you ever needed someone to speak up on your behalf or in favor of your way of viewing things.

Jesus called on a witness as He stood before the Jewish ruling council. No, He didn't call on a human witness or rely on the witness of His disciples. Instead, Jesus called on the witness of Scripture to affirm His identity and His ministry. In Mark 14:62, Jesus said, "I am; and 'you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power,' and 'coming with the clouds of heaven.'"
What did Jesus mean by this statement?

Take some time today to read Exodus 3:14, Psalm 110 and Daniel 7:13-14. After reading these passages, see if you can understand the witness Jesus was calling the Scriptures to provide for Him as He makes the statements in Mark 14:62.
