Blessed, praised & extolled & thanked be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has come & brought deliverance & redemption to His people!
Luke 1:68
We don’t really need a reason to sing a Hallelujah but man do we need to be singing it for the deliverance and redemption we have received.
This was Zechariah’s declaration after the birth of John. He knew that he was getting to be a part of the most amazing thing to happen to humanity. He knew that his son was called to ‘prepare the way for the Lord’. What an honor.
We need to be excited about the calling God has given us, no matter how small it is. Daunters will try to hold us back from walking in the calling but remember they have been deprived of their power to harm us.
Zechariah said “a Light from on high will dawn upon us and visit us” in verse 78. We are living in that dawn and light.
When we let the light of Christ shine in our hearts the dark shadows that Daunters cast over our calling disappears and we like Zechariah can sing a Hallelujah to God for his deliverance.
