We all have Ephesians 2:8 (the user) to thank for this beautiful piece of work.
"Bible passage: Isaiah 66:7-8
Written: perhaps between 701-681 BC
Fulfilled: 1948
In Isaiah 66:7-8, the prophet foreshadowed the re-birth of Israel in 1948. Isaiah describes a woman giving birth before going into labor, and he speaks of a country being born in one day. This accurately describes what happened on May 14, 1948 - when the Jews declared independence for Israel as a united and sovereign nation for the first time in 2900 years.
During that same day, the United States issued a statement recognizing Israel's sovereignty. And, only hours beforehand, a United Nations mandate expired, ending British control of the land. During a 24-hour span of time, foreign control of the land of Israel had formally ceased, and Israel had declared its independence, and its independence was acknowledged by other nations. Modern Israel was literally was born in a single day.
Isaiah said the birth would take place before there would be labor pains. And that too is precisely what happened. A movement called Zionism began in the 1800s to encourage Jews worldwide to move to Israel, which at that time was called Palestine. Within hours of the declaration of independence in 1948, Israel was attacked by the surrounding countries of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Saudi Arabia.
When reading Isaiah 66:7-8, keep in mind that Israel's status as a sovereign nation was established and reaffirmed during the course of a single day, and that it was born of a movement called Zionism, and that its declaration of independence was not the result of a war but rather the cause of one.
Isaiah 66:7-8
"Before she goes into labor, she gives birth; before the pains come upon her, she delivers a son. Who has ever heard of such a thing? Who has ever seen such things? Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Yet no sooner is Zion in labor than she gives birth to her children."

So, putting whatever bigotry one may have aside, how can one dispute this fulfilled prophecy?
Also, here's some more info, not from Ephesians 2:8( thanks for the info ) but from this website: http://www.inplainsite.org/html/scientific_facts_in_the_bible.html#SFB01
Air Has Weight:
The fact that air has weight was proven scientifically only about 300 years ago. The relative weights of air and water are needed for the efficient functioning of the world’s hydrologic cycle, which in turn sustains life on the earth.
When He imparted weight to the wind and meted out the waters by measure [Job 28:25] [Emphasis Added]
Acid: Yeah, and in a day, just like the prophecy.
Don't play stupid acid.
Psychiatric: Self fulfilling? Isaiah was a prophet, a direct messenger of GOD on this earth....You think Isaiah made up that prophecy himself?
Hahaha, man, you must really wanna be atheist even when the proof is here that GOD's existent.
Peace.
Acid: I knew that at least one atheist would talk crap, it's all good though man. It just shows me you know what's real now, as opposed to what you thought 5 minutes ago.
If I'm insane for supplying a fulfilled prophecy, the likes of which has never happened (When has a country been born in a day? And when it was born it came under attack, and still is around to this day) then hey man, insane must be the new sane.
