Angelic Announcements: The Announcement to Mary (Luke 1:26-38)

Angelic Announcements: God Does the Impossible

Midweek Advent 2, Wednesday, December 8, 2021

First Lesson: Genesis 18:10-15. Sarah considered God’s promise to give her and Abraham a son in their old age to be impossible. God reminded her and Abraham that for him nothing is impossible.

The Gospel and Sermon Text: Luke 1:26-38.. The Announcement to Mary.

When the angel told Mary about her special child, Jesus, he said that Jesus would do what seems impossible: He would sit on the throne of his ancestor David forever. He would have an endless kingdom, but to not be afraid.

Jesus did not come to battle against us as his enemies, He came to battle against our enemies and to make us His people.

He came to live for us, to live in our place and to set right all we have done wrong. He came to die for us and to make us His people forever.

Amen
