25 Days Of Christmas
DAY 2: FROM ANCIENT TIMES
Where To Start
Read Micah 5:2 and then watch the DAY TWO video.
Over 700 years before the birth of Jesus, God spoke through the prophet Micah about the Savior’s birthplace.
It would be Bethlehem, not Jerusalem. Bethlehem is a small city 5 miles south of Jerusalem, but God didn’t overlook this city.
Bethlehem was David’s birthplace, and the Messiah would be in David’s lineage. Bethlehem means house of bread, and Jesus is the bread of life.
Jesus fulfills every prophecy, and God has repeatedly confirmed that Jesus is Lord.
“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.”
HOPE POINT
God sees you.
Reflection Question: How does fulfilled prophecy build up your faith?
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, we are thankful for Your word. You keep every promise and fulfill every prophecy. Thank You for seeing us and caring about us. Jesus, Your compassion moves our hearts. We want to live and love like You. We worship Your holy name, amen.
