God promised Zechariah and Elizabeth that they would have a baby even though they were old. He also promised Mary that she would give birth to the Savior of the world. These promises seemed impossible, but God fulfilled His promises, because He can do impossible things. And just as He did back then, we can have faith that He will fulfill His promises to us today!
For nothing will be impossible with God.
The angel Gabriel is a messenger from God who told about the birth of Jesus to come. However, this was not the first time Gabriel appeared in the Bible. Can you find the mention of this special angel in the Old Testament? Hint: Gabriel spoke to a prophet whose name begins with D.
Think about a time that God did something that seemed impossible for you or someone you love. Grab a pencil and paper and write a song of praise to God, like Mary’s song, that tells what God has done. Share it with someone to encourage their faith.
God, thank You for coming through and fulfilling every promise You make. Amen.
