Daily Devotion:
"Unwavering Faith"
Luke 1:68-71
The Passion Translation
“Praise be to the exalted Lord God of Israel, for he has seen us through eyes of grace, and he comes as our Hero-God to set us free! He appears to us as a mighty Savior, a trumpet of redemption from the house of David, his servant, just as he promised long ago by the words of his holy prophets. They prophesied he would come one day and save us from every one of our enemies and from the power of those who hate us.
We will never be fully free from longings, mistakes, disgrace, or unbelief until we are in heaven But what
we see beautifully displayed in Zechariah’s and Elizabeth’s lives is the way God not only redeems all these things but also uses them for His glory. Their community knew they had been unable to have a child, and they knew Zechariah
had been disciplined for his unbelief. When they saw God’s mercy on this family, they all rejoiced.
God undoubtedly saw Zechariah and Elizabeth in their years of pain and longing. He was merciful despite their
mistakes and used both to encourage their community and make His name great. He is the same God today. What might He be working to restore in your life, even in your longing or momentary unbelief?
