ZACHARIAS AND ELISABETH
News From Heaven
Zacharias and Elisabeth were a special couple who lived in Jerusalem. Both of them loved and obeyed God. For many years they had prayed for a child, still they had no children.
Zacharias was a priest in the temple. His job was to burn incense in the Holy Place while the people outside prayed and waited for his blessing.
One day the angel Gabriel came to the temple. When Zacharias saw him standing at the right side of the altar, he was frightened. “Don’t be afraid,” Gabriel said. “God has heard your prayer. Your wife will have a son, and you shall name him John. You will have great joy when he is born, and others will rejoice with you.”
Gabriel continued, “John must never drink wine or strong drink. He will be great in God’s sight, for he will have the spirit and power of Elijah. John will cause hard hearts to become soft like those of little children. He will make disobedient minds become wise in true faith.”
“How can this be?” Zacharias asked doubtfully. “What sign will you give me so that I may know this is true? My wife and I are too old to have children now!”
The angel answered, “My name is Gabriel. I stand before God to obey His commands. Because you have not believed me, you will not be able to talk until the child is born. My words will surely come true at the right time.”
Meanwhile, the people outside the temple were waiting for Zacharias. They wondered what was taking him so long. When he finally came out, he could not bless the people. He could not speak at all. But they realized by his actions that he had seen a vision.
After the baby was born, most people thought he would be named after his father. But Zacharias surprised them by writing on a tablet, “His name is John.”
Immediately Zacharias could speak again. Filled with the Holy Spirit, he started prophesying and praising the Lord.
Luke 1
