Israel's Promise

G-d promised Israel a sign as to the coming of the Messiah. Isaiah 7:14 "There fore the L-RD himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."  Only one event such as this took place in Israel.  The record is found in the New Covenant,  "And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from G-d unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.  And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the L-RD is with thee.  blessed art thou among women.  And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, ad cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.  And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with G-d.  And behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name YESHUA.  He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the L-RD G-d shall give unto him the throne of his father David:  And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there shall be no end.  Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?  And the angel answered and said unto her,The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of G-d." Luke 1:26-35

We can rejoice and remember during this time of Year G-d keeps his promises.Messiah came the first time to redeem us back to The Father.  He will come again to set up his kingdom in Israel to rule and reign on earth  Have a blessed Nativity celebration
