1. Luke 1: 10-14 ”And the whole multitude of the people were in prayer outside at the hour of the incense offering. And an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing to the right of the altar of incense. Zacharias was troubled when he saw the angel, and fear gripped him. But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your petition has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you will give him the name John.” Father God, what an amazing story unfolded as people prayed and Zacharias made petition before the Lord. Would You open our eyes to see the miracles You are performing in our lives each day? Increase our wonder at the mighty works You are about in our lives. Thank You Father for hearing our prayers!
2. Luke 1: 59b, 63, 64, 66 “ . . . and they were going to call him Zacharias, after his father, but his mother answered and said, ‘No indeed; but he shall be called John.’” “And he (Zacharias) asked for a tablet and wrote as follows, ‘His name is John.’ And they were all astonished. And at once his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he began to speak in praise of God. All who heard them kept them in mind, saying, ‘What then will this child turn out to be? For the hand of the Lord was certainly with him.’” Father God, we praise You for the arrival of John who heralded the Messiah’s coming as the Savior of the world. Thank You that we can live out the revelations of John before the lost around us. Use our lives for Your glory.
