Fulfilled Prophecy
A promise was made long ago, revealed through the prophets and dating back to the fall of mankind in the Garden of Eden.
A Savior would be born. He’d be born to repair the damage that mankind inflicted on himself because of the sin that entered into the world through Adam and Eve. He’d be born to be the only way of salvation!
The Prophets foretold that His name would be Emanuel "God With Us", and He'd be born in a small almost obscure town named Bethlehem. The Messiah of the world was to come to us born of a virgin to save mankind from its sin and separation from God. The Messiah was God's own Son. Long before all these things would take place God said they would happen; revealed to us and all creation that our God would be with us. God always shows Himself faithful as His Word is true and comes to life in a very real fashion. Just as He spoke light into the darkness and it happened, He spoke to the hearts of the prophets through His Holy Word to begin to reveal the plan He had in place.
We know that roughly two thousand years ago God's One and Only Son was sent to us fulfilling the promises that the prophecy of the Old Testament stated would take place. He was born in Bethlehem of a virgin named Mary.
Our God is with us!
As we enter the Christmas season we should have a sense of awe and reverence in how God fulfilled everything according to His Word. He keeps His Word!
My Prayer is that we'll continue to be in awe of these incredible truths and that we'll instill the truths of God's revelation to our family, friends, or whomever God so chooses to place in our path. Especially during Christmas time!
When we celebrate His birth may we all share the true meaning behind what the world considers as just another holiday. May the truth revealed in prophecy be communicated and known through us.
Praise God for revealing Himself and that we can have the true honor and privilege of worshiping Jesus and celebrate His entrance into the world during Christmas. Let us all have a true "Birthday" celebration for our Savior this year and every year for the Lord our God fulfilled His promise through His Son Jesus Christ.
