Answer 1

It was foretold by Sybil Trelawny to Professor Dumbledore. The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches… born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies … and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not … and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives … the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies …

Answer 3

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... And the Dark Lord shall mark him as his equal, but he shall have power the Dark Lord knows not... One must die at the hand of the other, for neither can live while the other survives... The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies."

The prophecy in fact referred to two boys born at the end of July: Harry Potter (born 31 July 1980) and Neville Longbottom (born 30 July 1980). While Harry was a half-blood with a Muggle-born mother, Neville was pure-blood, which by Voldemort's creed was the only type of wizard worth knowing.

However, in a move seemingly because he saw himself in Harry, Voldemort (who was himself a half-blood) made his move on Harry on the 31st of October 1981, which was All Hallows Eve. His parents, James and Lily Potter, were both killed in the attack, but sacrificed themselves for their only son. This sacrifice, especially on Lily's part, enabled a shield of protection and love to save Harry from the Dark Lord's Killing Curse that night and protected him until the age of seventeen.

The power that he knows not was revealed in later years to be the power of love, albeit Lily's love for her son, but it could possibly also be referring to Harry's love for his best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, who stood by him throughout the Second Wizarding War, and for his girlfriend (later wife), Ginny Weasley, who was the driving force behind his defeat of Voldemort in 1998.
