Things happened on “This Day”

Putting fear upon enemies 

Deuteronomy 2:25  

This very day I will begin to put the terror and fear of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.”

God talked with man

Deuteronomy 5:25  

But now, why should we die? This great fire will consume us, and we will die if we hear the voice of the LORD our God any longer.

Victory gained

1 Samuel 14:45  

But the men said to Saul, “Should Jonathan die—he who has brought about this great deliverance in Israel? Never! As surely as the LORD lives, not a hair of his head will fall to the ground, for he did this today with God's help.” So the men rescued Jonathan, and he was not put to death.

Jeremiah appointed

Jeremiah 1:10  

See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.”

Scripture fulfilled

Luke 4:16-21  

16 He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. 

17 The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:

18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed,

19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”

20 Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him, 

21 and he began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.
