Luke 1:68-75 “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to his people and redeemed them. He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us— to show mercy to our ancestors and to remember his holy covenant, the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. John the Baptist has just been born and Zechariah confirms the babys name by writing His name is John on a tablet. Zechariah was silenced by the angel Gabriel from the announcement of Johns birth until right now, when God chooses to fill Zechariah with the Holy Spirit to prophesy about Christs coming. Through this time of silence, God has prepared a powerful purpose for Zechariahs returned voice. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28 NIV)
