The Blessing of Obedience

Luke 1:46-55

Theme: Mary was a teenager whose heart was holy unto the Lord. God
chose her to bring Jesus into the world because she was devoted to Him.
Are you devoted to the Lord so that He can entrust a miracle to you?

I. The blessing of obedience comes when you learn to doubt

your doubts and affirm your faith. (Luke 1:46-50)

1. The place of your greatest struggle is potentially your greatest strength .

"I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be
content whatever the circumstances."

2. Worship of God empowers you for the

work of God.

II. The blessing of obedience comes when you realize

God is at work in you as He was in Mary.

(Luke 1:51-55)

live in the present.

"For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to
strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him."
