Is there a prophecy that says the messiah will rise into the sky and become a god?
That's one prophecy I'd like to see -- I'll bet you can't find it.
In bible prophecy messiah and god are two different things entirely, unless I'm mistaken.

1. NO. The messiah is not supposed to have supernatural abilities. This is something the Christians made up.
Hosea 11:9
2. Jesus never "became" a god, He was always God.
3. Hey dude, remember me ?
I used to ask Christians a simple question about trinity and they NEVER could answer it.
Shall I try again to see if they can answer this SIMPLE question ?
your call.
4. The Bible shows God to be a distinct personage from Jesus Christ, who is a separate and distinct personage from God the Father, and from the Holy Ghost according to the New Testament. Thus, the Eternal Father, his Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost are separate entities, perfectly distinct and in person independent from each other. This is the doctrine clearly stated by our Saviour. It is the doctrine proclaimed by his disciples in their epistles to the ancient saints. Any doctrine to the contrary contradicts what is plainly written and is a misinterpretation of these teachings. There was no confusion in the minds of Peter, John, and Paul. Consider what is written in the scriptures.
First, we have the occasion of the baptism of our Lord. According to Matthew, when Jesus was baptised he "went up straightway out of the water: and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him; and lo, a voice from heaven saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." This scene is confirmed by Mark and Luke; but the account given by Luke is even more explicit. He says, "And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." I will refer to this event and the conclusions we must draw from it later.
Likewise, Matthew in relating the story of the transfiguration, says that while Jesus and his three disciples were with Moses and Elias on the mount, "There came a voice out of the cloud which said, This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased." This is also confirmed by Mark and Luke.
On another occasion, as related in the 12th chapter of John, when Jesus was praying to his Father he said,
"Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it and will glorify it again."
Some of the assembled people "said that it thundered; others said an angel spoke to him." The very nature of the answer precludes the thought that it could have been the voice of any other than his Father.
It is impossible to harmonise such statements in the scriptures with the prevailing notion that the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost are not separate personages. Our Saviour was not a deceiver; he did not resort to ventriloquism to confuse and mislead those who were with him. We must if we use our sense of reason conclude that on each occasion when the Father spoke to the Son he was in some other place, and the voice was not coming in some mysterious way from the Son.
In John 14:28, the Saviour said to his disciples: "Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I."
Naturally his Father would be greater because he is the Father, and this likewise teaches us the separate entities of the Father and the Son.
Then we have the witness of Paul to the Corinthian saints, wherein he says Christ must reign till he hath put all enemies under his feet, and when that time comes, he, Christ,
"Shall have delivered up the kingdom to God the Father." Moreover, when the last enemy is destroyed and all things are put under the feet of God the Father, then, said Paul, "When all things are subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all."--I Cor. 15:24-28.
Then again, unto whom was Christ praying as recorded in the seventeenth chapter of John, when he said:
"Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify theeā¦. And now O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was."
Surely he was not praying to himself. It is absurd to say that the mysterious essence called the Son was praying to the same mysterious essence called the Father.
In the Garden the Saviour prayed saying, "Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done." Consistently we cannot say that he would utter such a prayer to himself
5. The first chapter of Acts tells how he showed himself for 40 days after his resurrection. So the apostles had first hand knowledge of his raising from the dead while gave them the strength and courage to continue on.
Holy spirit was poured out on them and by Acts 1:9 says he was lifted up into the sky. As the perfect sacrificial lamb for the world of mankind. Did he make it to heaven to be with God?
When Stephen was stoned to death he looked into heaven and saw Jesus at the right hand of God. Acts 7:55
6. See Isaiah 9:6-7.
Isaiah, who lived before the time of Jesus, gave a prophecy about a "son" who would be called "Mighty God." Jesus, the Son of God, is fully human and fully God. As such, he is both "son" and "Mighty God."
7. In The Name Of Allah The Most Beneficent Most Merciful
No. Jesus is the messih and he will come towards the end of times. And he is only a Messenger of God.
