The Best Gift!

In the Old Testament,

God spoke a lot through prophets.

Here is Balaam in Numbers, 

chapter 24, verses 15-17

"The utterance of one who hears what God says...

A star shall advance from Jacob,

and a staff shall arise from Israel."

 

I wrote this in one of the pages of my bible

years ago:

"Two of the computer scientists at the University of Oregon

had run the problem through the computer.

The odds against one man fulfilling

the 333 prophecies were 67 to the 10th power,

a figure so astronomical that it 

approaches infinity.

What an answer for the intellectual inquiring

about the validity of Jesus!"

And here's a video about the probability factor

of only 8 prophecies being fulfilled by Jesus:

1 in 10 to the 17th power!!!

 

"Strengthen the hands that are feeble,

make firm the knees that are weak,

Say to those whose hearts are frightened,

Be strong,

fear not!

Here is your God!" 

Isaiah 35

 We too can be "prophets" for others

when we give them the Word of God,

encourage them, support them,

confirm them, love them!

 

The same way that Jesus came to bring us

New Life,

we too can bring spring waters

to a thirsty soul, 

to bring words of hope

to a parched heart!

Is not that the best gift we can give one another this

season of love?
