Luke 1:67-70–Zechariah's Song!

Luke 1:67-70–"Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for He has visited and redeemed His people up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David, as He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets of old,"

This is only a portion of one of the beautiful praises in all of Scripture.  We read that an angel of the Lord came to an elderly couple who had been without child and prophesied that a son would be born, a prophet who would herald in the coming of the Messiah.  Zechariah, having been informed by the angel, doesn't believe in the prophecy that he and his wife would be blessed with a son.  As a result of this doubt, Zechariah is ridden with muteness, unable to speak until his son, John, is born.  But as soon as John is born and named Zechariah is filled with the Holy Spirit and utters this beautiful and profound song of prophecy and praise.  It is this utterance that I point you to today.  Consider the great adoration that Zechariah heaps upon the Lord!
