Bible Text: Luke 1:26-38 | Minister: Pastor Nick Esposito | Dunamis. The Greek word translated as "power" for most of the New Testament is what the Angel Gabriel tells Mary she'll be overshadowed with. That power wasn't something at rest in her, it was power that was put into action: the birth of Jesus Christ, our Savior. That same "power in action" is what God has given us through His Holy Spirit!
