Throughout Scripture, God's plan to guide and instruct His people is revealed, including the promise of a future prophet. In Deuteronomy 18:18, God speaks of raising up a prophet like Moses, while Deuteronomy 33:2 and 18:19 emphasize the importance of heeding this prophet's words. The New Testament, particularly in John 14:26 and John 16:12-14, speaks of the Holy Spirit's role in guiding believers into all truth, which some interpret as a reference to the prophetic figure of Muhammad, although this is not a universal Christian understanding. The Bible's teachings on prophecy and guidance highlight God's desire to lead His people into a deeper understanding of His will.

This is the burden against Arabia: In the thickets of Arabia you must lodge, O caravans of Dedanites. Bring water for the thirsty, O dwellers of Tema; meet the refugees with food. For they flee from the sword— the sword that is drawn— from the bow that is bent, and from the stress of battle. For this is what the Lord says to me: “Within one year, as a hired worker would count it, all the glory of Kedar will be gone. The remaining archers, the warriors of Kedar, will be few.” For the LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken.
