TEXT: LUKE 1:13-19
CLASSIC
TOPIC : BIRTHING YOUR NEW SEASON.
[13]But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
[14]And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
[18]And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
[19]And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
Zachariah was a priest who dedicated all his life in the service of Jehovah.
He was a just and holy man, but his wife could not conceive a baby.
They had asked for babies in their younger days but had deleted it from there list of needs.
They were not angry with God, they just gave up in the belief that that was not in the plan of God for their lives.
There was no expectation nor faith for this miracle, but God is faithful.
Zachariah who was an old priest, asked the angel, " how can this be knowing, that I am an old man and my wife is striken with age?"
Angel Gabriel was shocked at Zachariah's level of doubt that he made Zacharia dumb to avoid him aborting the miracle with his mouth.
In Luke 1:19, Gabriel declared,
" I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; "
Gabriel meant that he was coming from a realm where everything is possible.
I do not know where the enemy has held you down for years, but if I be a man of God, I declare your freedom from every harassment of the wicked now in Jesus mighty name.
I you believe you are free, type a capital letter AMEN.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
