Promise of a child
Isaiah 7:14
Read the Bible through:
AM – Hosea 1-3 : PM – 1 John 4
"Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel” (Isa. 7:14).
The prophet Isaiah preached in his own day; and, by the grace of God, he also spoke to a future time. Isaiah’s message served to assure the people of his day that God was with them.
Through inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Isaiah also told about things that were to come. A virgin did conceive and brought forth a son whose name is Jesus. He is Immanuel. He is not just a sign that God is with us. He is God become flesh. That is He Himself is God.
Though Jesus came to ordinary people, He is quite extraordinary. “For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily” (Co. 2:9). His birth was miraculous. His earthly life amazed those who knew Him. His death was tragic, dramatic, and ugly. His resurrection was awesome and opened the doors of heaven for us.
Thank You, God, for coming in the flesh to be the Savior of the world.
