The prophecy about Jesus being in Bethlehem shows that God keeps His promises and His Word is true. Long before Jesus was born, prophets wrote about His coming, proving that we can trust the Bible. Just like the wise men followed prophecy to find the newborn King, we should follow God’s Word and honor His Sabbath as a sign of our faith and obedience. The Sabbath reminds us that God is our Creator and Redeemer, the One who made the world and saves His people. Jesus’ birth in the exact place predicted shows God’s perfect timing and plan. The same faithful God who sent Jesus once will send Him again, just as He promised. Each Sabbath is a time to rest, worship, and remember that God always keeps His word. We should listen to His voice, live by His truth, and be ready for Christ’s return. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1).
