Like All Who Believe

Mary was highly privileged and her explosion of joy reflected a developing understanding of the wonderful truth with which she had been entrusted. Her song revealed the amazing responsibility of being chosen by the God of her forefathers, to bring forth our Lord Jesus - Whom she humbly acknowledged as GOD, my Savior.
Her own precious baby was to be the One who would die for her sins. He would bring forgiveness and salvation to his young mother and to all sinners who trust in His redeeming blood. Like all who believe, Mary's human spirit was made alive the moment she believed God's Word - that she would bring forth a Son that would save His people. No wonder her spirit delighted in the God of her salvation.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, what a thrilling meeting it must have been for Elisabeth and Mary as they glorified Your name for all that You had done in their lives and for the wonderful promise of salvation. How our spirits also rejoice in You and in the Lord Jesus Christ, our God, our Savior, and Your eternal Son. Thank You for Your gracious plan of redemption and for Christ's birth to this humble Jewish maiden. How our souls also thrill and praise You for all You have done in our lives - for the forgiveness of sin and the redemption of our souls through the shed blood of God our Savior. Praise Your holy name, AMEN.
