Amos 6:1-14, 2 Thessalonians 1:5-12, Luke 1:57-68
Zachariah opens his mouth in praise when his voice is returned to him after the birth of his son, John. "Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come and has redeemed his people." (Luke 1:68)
Praise be to the Lord indeed! We are a redeemed people! Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now I'm found, was blind but now I see!
Advent is all about waiting for the Coming One, watching for his arrival. And now we watch for his return, waiting for the coming kingdom.
Praise the Lord for the One that came, the One that redeems.
