Birth foretold

13 Then Isaiah said, "Hear now, you house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of men? Will you try the patience of my God also? 14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. 15 He will eat curds and honey when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right. 16 But before the boy knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste. 17 The LORD will bring on you and on your people and on the house of your father a time unlike any since Ephraim broke away from Judah‚ he will bring the king of Assyria."
Isaiah 13-17

Isaiah has foretold how Jesus was to arrive and prophesied to the Jews what to look for during the time of the coming of the Messiah...I wonder, hope, and pray that we as Christians are keen to what has been said to happen during the time of the coming of the High Priest. (Jesus’ 2nd coming) As we reflect and celebrate the His first coming, let us not forget the hope we have in His return!
