Biblical Prophecy is history written in advance. It is authentic evidence to validate the
Bible‘s claims of Divine inspiration.
Bethlehem was so insignificant in size and population. It seems that God loves to do His
great miracles and wonders among weak and insignificant things; even people.
It Was Prophesied that Messiah Would be Born in Bethlehem
The Prophecy – Micah 5:2
But thou,
Bethlehem Ephratah,
though thou be little among the thousands of Judah,
yet out of thee shall He come forth unto Me
that is to be Ruler in Israel;
Whose goings forth have been from of old,
from everlasting.

It was Fulfilled in Luke 2:4-7
And Joseph also went up from Galilee,
out of the city of Nazareth,
into Judaea,
unto the city of David,
which is called Bethlehem;
(because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with Child.
And so it was, that,
while they were there,
the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
And she brought forth her firstborn Son,
and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes,
and laid Him in a manger;
because there was no room for them
in the inn.
Isn’t it an amazing fact that God in His Almighty power and Omnipotence would have
such a fantastical plan whereby mankind could be redeemed?
That the Father would send His Son with Whom He inhabited eternity,
to come to earth in the weakest form as a baby?
A helpless babe with all the limitations of a baby .
