Advent 2017 - Day 17

Day 17 - John the Baptist (3rd Sunday of Advent)

Reading: Luke 1:76-79

As Zechariah speaks, as the prophecy is made, the people listen in astonishment - this baby, this boy, is going to do great things - and is going to get things ready for the Messiah! What glory! How esteemed will John be by all people! Surely he will live out his days in a palace, or as the Chief Priest, as is appropriate for the herald of the King who will take David's throne! After all, what sort of King could do anything less for his faithful servant?

Prayer Point: Pray for those who must speak truth to power.
