Michah 5:1,2
2 “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah,
out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.”
In this time of celebrating Christmas, we will have gifts, quality time with family etc. Let's remember what Christmas is all about and thank God for being Immanuel God with us. When Christ was born, this was one of the greatest prophecies that was fulfilled. There are more than 300 prophecies pertaining to the Messiah, and every last one of these prophecies came to pass to the letter. We see in Zechariah of Jesus riding on a donkey, Isaiah 53 speaks of Christ' death, and we also see in Micah 5 that Jesus would be born in a little town called Behlehem. The prohecy say's that He would be ruler over Israel. It also say's that He would be wonderful Councelor, "Mighty God" Prince of peace. Not only is God above and beyond, but He is also within all believers who have repented and made Him Lord of our lives. Unto us a child was born and now He is seated at the right hand of God making intercession for us.
Prayer:
Lord, we thank you for coming down to earth and being born. We want to give you a gift today of our sacrifice, and we want you to know that we do love you and thank you for everything you have given us in this time of Christmas, amen.
