“Elizabeth Cries Out…”

“Elizabeth Cries Out…”

Blessings folk!

The narrative continues…

Luk 1:39-45

Now at this time Mary arose and went in a hurry to the hill country, to a city of Judah,

and entered the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting,
the baby leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

And she cried out with a loud voice and said,
“Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

“And how has it happened to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me?

“For behold, when the sound of your greeting reached my ears,
the baby leaped in my womb for joy.

“And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment
of what had been spoken to her by the Lord.”

Immediately upon hearing the news from Gabriel, Mary went to visit Zacharias and Elizabeth.

Give close heed to the flow and timing…

When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting…no intimate discussion/talk…just greeting…

At that point, the baby in Elizabeth’s womb leaped.
Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

Then Elizabeth speaks/prophesies.
She cries out with a loud voice.
She questions…
How has this happened to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me?

How did she know Mary was with child?
How did she know that the child was the Lord?

She explains some.
When she heard the sound of Mary’s voice the baby lept.
Lept for joy!

Then this…
Blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what had been spoken to her by the Lord!

How did she know that Mary had believed?
How did she know of the spoken word?

The Spirit filled her.
The Spirit revealed to her.

A Word of revelation to Elizabeth.
A Word of confirmation/affirmation to Mary.
