Title: Angels-Pointed to the Solution (3)
Series: Do You Hear What I Hear?
Author: Jordan Easley
Text: Luke 1:5-20
We live in a world... where Baby announcements are a big deal! And I'm not sure exactly when that started. But I feel like it wasn't that long ago. When we found out we were pregnant, we told our parents and our closest friends, and that was about it.
But today, there's almost this... unspoken expectation... that when you're making this announcement... that a baby is coming... you need to go big! There needs to be a gender reveal party and you've got to find a creative way to shoot blue or pink confetti out of a cannon... and you've got to have a professional photographer because... these moments were made for Instagram! Am I right? Listen-Baby announcements are a big deal!
You know-this time of year, we are reminded of another BIG baby announcement-and it was a big deal! In fact, this baby announcement kicked off the Christmas story! ...and you know that baby's name today! His name is (say it with me) _____. (Nope... his name was John).
Turn with me to [Luke 1]: Beginning in verse 5, it says: In the days of King Herod of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah. His wife was named Elizabeth... and the Bible says... Both of them were righteous in God's sight, and both of them were doing what the Lord had commanded them to do.
7 But they had no children because Elizabeth could not conceive, and both of them were well along in years. So, get this picture in your mind... At this time, this husband and wife were old... They were still serving the Lord... and for decades, they had passionately prayed that God would allow them to have a child... but now, after many years, they knew... that window to have children... had closed.
8 goes on to say... As a priest, Zechariah was chosen to enter the sanctuary of the Lord to burn incense... and as he was performing this duty (v. 11 says...)
