Bletchley Park was the headquarters of British codebreakers during WWII. German military messages were intercepted and decoded by a team of analysts, many of whom would never know how their specific tasks impacted the war as a whole. Each piece of military intelligence gained was collected and passed on to those who could best use it in the field. The codebreakers didn’t have the context for the messages they decoded, but for the military strategists this vital information resulted in lives saved and battles won. In some ways, the Old Testament prophets had a similar experience to the codebreakers. God revealed parts of his plan to them, sometimes related to their current situation, sometimes prophecies that wouldn’t be fulfilled until hundreds of years later. They only had pieces of the overall picture. Now that Jesus has come and fulfilled the prophecies, we have the context needed to understand and respond to the grace of God more fully. This should result in victorious living as we walk in the light of Jesus’ coming.
