Prophets Foretold the Birth of Jesus

Hundreds of years before Jesus was born, Old Testament Prophets told about Jesus' birth. These free, printable Bible lesson activities for children focus on that miracle and drive home the important truth that Jesus was the promised Messiah of the Old Testament! This Old Testament expectation, as delivered by the prophets, is what we’re calling The Prophets’ Story and is represented here by Isaiah 9:6, Micah 5:2, and Luke 2:7. These lessons and activities are great for use at home, in a Christian school, or in an ongoing Bible study at church such as Sunday School.
