Around 700 BC a Jewish prophet named Isaiah made a prophecy.

“The Lord will give you a sign… a virgin shall give birth to a son and shall call his name Immanuel” (Isaiah 7:14)

“Immanuel means God with us” (Matthew 1:23)

700 years later, the angel Gabriel was sent by God into a city of Galilee named Nazareth (Luke 1:26)

“A virgin was engaged to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary” (Luke 1:27)

The angel said…”Fear not, for you have found favor with God” (Luke 1:30)

“You shall conceive and have a son, and you will call his name Jesus” (Luke 1:31)

“He shall be great, and shall be called Son of the Highest and God shall give him the throne of his father David” (Luke 1:32)

“And he shall rule over the house of Jacob forever; and his kingdom shall have no end” (Luke 1:33)
