Advent-Prophecy

The Prophecy Candle is the first candle which we light today. It reminds us of the Old Testament prophets who foretold h comes our Scripture reading for today.

The prophecy candle is the first candle during week one of Advent.  It reminds us of the Old Testament prophets predicting our hope in the coming Messiah.

Isaiah 9:6-7 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and forevermore.The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
