I believe it was Isaiah 42:1 and Isaiah 40:3-5
JESUS was the messiah that was promised in the old testament. He was the fulfillment of old testament prophecy.
Jesus went to the Mount of Olives to demonstrate that he was God and the King of the Jews. He had to establish this as a fulfillment of Old Testament Prophecy and to prepare for his crucifixion. Read Matthew 21 to the End of Mattchew. If you have a reference Bible read the references to see the Old Testament prophesies that were fulfilled from Matthew 21 to the End. A lot of them were fulfilled.

A careful reading of the Old Testament in the original Hebrew shows that there was no prophecy of Jesus coming to earth.
Because he needed prophecy to be fulfilled
To fulfill prophecy & knowing that all things were fulfilled concerning him.
ANSWER: Yes, Christ is the Messiah who was prophesied of in the Old Testament. Scores of prophecies in the Old Testament books of prophecy were fulfilled with the arrival of Christ. Scores of other prophecies about Christ are about to be fulfilled in a few years from now when he returns. The days of Unleavened Bread commemorate the fact that Christ, our Passover, is sacrificed for us (1 Corinthians 5:7).
Jesus fulfilled all of the prophecies in the old testament. In his book "The New Evidence That Demands A Verdict", Josh McDowell says:- The Old Testament contains over three hundred references to the Messiah that were fulfilled in Jesus. (from Section 8, Support of Deity: Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled in Jesus Christ)
Jesus fulfilled that prophecy by going to the cross on Calvary and dying there for your and my sin, but in order to be saved we have to believe and ask Jesus to forgive us our sins and trespasses.
That was when Jesus presented himself for baptism in 29 C.E. From that point on in his life, Jesus fulfilled the words of Psalm 40:6-8.
