DAVID Who is praying?

DAVID JESUS

Who is praying? The sceptre will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until He comes to Whom it belongs and the obedience of the nations is His. Genesis 49:10

Who is praying? The sweet psalmist of Israel says... “The Spirit of the LORD speaks by me; His word is on my tongue.” 2 Samuel 23:1-2

“The Spirit of the LORD speaks by me; His word is on my tongue.” DAVID JESUS

Who is praying? But David was a prophet, and he knew God had promised with an oath that one of his own descendants would sit on his throne as the Messiah. Acts 2:30

Who is praying? David was looking into the future and predicting the Messiah's resurrection. He was saying that the Messiah would not be left among the dead and that his body would not rot in the grave. Acts 2:31, NLT

DAVID Who is praying? For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:21

DAVID JESUS

Going a little farther, Jesus fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour might pass from him. "Abba, Father," he said, "everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.” Mark 14:35-36
