Meditate on verses 46b-47a.

My soul exalts the LORD, and my spirit

 has rejoiced in God my Savior,

for He has had regard for

the humble state of His bondslave.

How excited Gabriel must have been to receive God’s order to announce to Mary that she was to be the mother of Jesus! For 4,000 years, every Old Testament believer had put their faith in the coming of Messiah, and now Mary was to be the human vessel through whom God would put on flesh to be the perfect, sinless sacrifice for the sinfulness of all mankind.

Bask in the CHRISTmas story like never before this year, asking God to reveal new insights into His miracles of Christ’s birth. Give yourself to God saying: “Behold, the bondslave of the LORD; may it be done to me according Your Word” (v. 38).

After making that commitment to Christ, Mary’s song can be your song, too (vs. 46-55). Say/sing it to Him as His faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“My soul exalts You, LORD, and my spirit

rejoices in You, God, my Savior.

For You have regard for the humble state of Your bondslave;

for behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed.

 For You, the Mighty One, have done great things for me,

and holy is Your name.  Your mercy is upon generation

after generation toward those who fear You. 

You have done mighty deeds with Your arm;

You have scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their heart. 

You have broken down rulers from their thrones,

and You have exalted those who were humble. 

You have filled the hungry with good things and sent

 away the rich empty-handed.  You have given

 help to Israel, Your servant, in remembrance of Your mercy,

as You spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and his descendants forever.

Thank You, Jesus Messiah~”
