Zacharias blessing the Lord
Luke 1:68
A short morning devotional for the residents of Milward House Pilgrim home, Tunbridge Wells Kent.
"Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people," (Luke 1:68)
Although our Lord was yet in the womb as Zacharias spake, he was able to say that God had visited his people. And though it would be another 33 years before the redemption sacrifice was made at Jerusalem, he is able to bless God as if that begun was done.
As we come towards the close of the year, many things may be begun but not finished. May we bless the Lord for what he has begun believing that the Lord will complete his work for his redeemed people.
The complete prophecy (Luke 1:68-79) is full of encouragement for the people of God.
