Devotional: Luke 1:26-33

Today’s passage: Luke 1:26-33

Helpful thoughts:

  • Mary was shown favor…she was a favored one.  This means Mary was not given the role of mother to Jesus because she was full of grace to bestow, but because God poured out favor/grace on her.  Mary needed a savior just like we all do.
  • Isaiah 7:14 – Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
  • The mention of Joseph being of the house of David was a hint at who Jesus was going to be (Joseph adopted Jesus as his own, therefore Jesus was Joseph’s legal heir).  Then, verses 31-33 come right out and tell us exactly who Jesus is!
    • Jesus means, Jehovah (Or Yahweh) saves.  Jesus is our salvation!
    • Jesus is the Son of God, God the Son.
    • Jesus is the King of Kings.
    • Jesus is King forever!

Questions to consider:

  1. What made Mary special?  What did Gabriel tell her?
  2. What did Gabriel tell Mary about the baby she was going to have?  What is Jesus?  Who is Jesus?
  3. What was Jesus going to do before he reigned forever?  How was He to become our savior? (Isaiah 52:13-53:12)
