A heart that would say yes to God and accept her divine assignment.
Scripture: Luke 1:45-56-
In Luke 1:45-56, we see some very humble people. One of the most humble and lowly of all was
named Mary who became the mother of Jesus. She went to visit her cousin Elizabeth and out of
her own mouth said, “My soul magnifies the Lord, And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.
For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant; For behold, henceforth all generations
will call me blessed. For He who is mighty has done great things for me, And holy is His name.
And His mercy is on those who fear Him From generation to generation. He has shown strength
with His arm; He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He has put down the
mighty from their thrones, And exalted the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, And
the rich He has sent away empty. He has helped His servant Israel, In remembrance of His mercy,
As He spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed forever.” Why did God pick Mary? She
was humble and had a low opinion of herself. God saw her willing heart, a heart that would say
yes to God and accept her divine assignment.
❖ If you will bear better fruits, then you must go through pruning. This can be a very painful
process. Pray that you will, like Jesus learn obedience through your sufferings (John 15:26,
Job 5:18).
❖ If you do not bear fruit, you will be eased away. Pray for yourself, family, region, province
and nation but especially for the church, that God will quicken His people to this fruit so
they escape judgment. (Psalm 119:159, Matthew 3:10, Luke 13:6-9).
❖ Pray that the Lord visits you, your family, church and nation with mercy and raise a
standard by the Holy Spirit against the activities of the Midianites, Amalekites and the
children of the east in your life, family, church and nation (Judges 6:1-6)
