TOPIC: Trust God For A Miracle (TREM Devotional 26 September 2024)

“But the angel of the Lord said unto him; fear not, Zacharias; for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shall call his name John”. Luke 1:13 (KJV)

Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:

If you look at the circumstances surrounding the birth of Christ, they are characterised by miracles. In Luke 1:5-7, the bible says, “There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia, and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth. And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. And they had no child, because Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years”. (KJV) This man was a priest, a pastor, or, if you like, call him a Bishop. The fact is that he was of the priesthood order. Bringing it home, you can say they were very close to God. These were clean people, having no sin.

If the Bible calls you blameless, then you are genuinely blameless. Yet it had ceased to be with them in the manner that one could have a child. How does that grab you? They loved God with all their hearts, served God, and were committed to God’s ordinances. They were dedicated and faithful; they served and did everything within their power, yet they had no child. In all of these, Zachariah never allowed his situation to determine how he would serve God. Never! He had needs and desires that had not been met, but he kept on serving in the temple. He kept carrying out his assignment. The modern Christian will say that God has disappointed me.

The Bible is so complete that we can always draw from it. There are different examples of people who went through many things that you cannot explain. Don’t run your mouth when things happen to you, as a child of God, and you cannot explain. Just keep on trusting God, knowing that your redeemer lives.
