TOPIC: With God, Nothing Shall Be Impossible
READ: Luke 1:26-38
26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee,
27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.
28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.
31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.
32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,
33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”
34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called[a] the Son of God.
36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month.
37 For no word from God will ever fail.”
38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.
THE MESSAGE:
Never in the history of man had a woman been pregnant without sexual intercourse, until Angel GabrieI made a holy announcement to Mary. Mary expressed her shock in these words: “How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?” As difficult as it sounded, the Angel was very clear with the message from God. But as a direct answer to Mary, he said, “The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore, also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.” As a way to address her doubts, the Angel also informed her that her cousin Elizabeth had conceived in her old age.
When people encounter situations that appear impossible sometimes, they go off the way of God to look for solution in the wrong places. The message from God to us today is that the power of the Most High is able to do all things. Although Mary found favour before God, yet it took the power of God to bring to pass what was spoken. All we need is to believe God like Mary, and say like her,”… be it unto me according to thy word….”
PRAYER: Father, grant me the grace to believe Your word in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
