Read Luke 1:13-15

13 But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you will name him John. 14 You will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth, 15 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He must never drink wine or strong drink; even before his birth he will be filled with the Holy Spirit.

The most wonderful time of the year is almost here. Christmas is all about celebrating Jesus, God’s greatest gift. But before we talk about Jesus’ birth, let’s talk about another important baby’s arrival! You see,

there was an older couple named Zechariah and Elizabeth who didn’t have children. Zechariah was a priest who loved and served God. One day, when it was his turn to serve in the temple, an angel appeared to Zechariah with a very special message.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

What did the angel Gabriel tell Zechariah?

...............................................................................................................................

What do you think Zechariah did when he heard this news?

...............................................................................................................................

Zechariah couldn’t believe it. But if there’s one thing we know about God, it’s that God can do the impossible! And that’s one big reason to celebrate!

Is there something you need help with? If God can do anything, couldn’t God help you?

Stop and pray right now. Tell God about what’s going on, thank

God for listening and trust that God can do anything!
