Christmas

Getting you ready for Christmas with a verses out of Luke 1. Ever notice the first thing an angel says…

Luke 1:13-17 (New Living Translation)

"Don't be afraid, Zechariah! God has heard your prayer. Your wife, Elizabeth, will give you a son, and you are to name him John. 14 You will have great joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth, 15 for he will be great in the eyes of the Lord. He must never touch wine or other alcoholic drinks. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even before his birth. 16 And he will turn many Israelites to the Lord their God. 17 He will be a man with the spirit and power of Elijah. He will prepare the people for the coming of the Lord. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and he will cause those who are rebellious to accept the wisdom of the godly."

John was like the Thanksgiving if Jesus is Christmas. Not quite the main event but still a big deal.

He was also an answer to some long term prayer requests from Zechariah. When you you’ve prayed about something for the millionth time, remember the message from the angel: “God has heard your prayer.”
