Luke 1:46-48
THE REJOICING HEART OF MARY
And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the LORD, and my spirit hath rejoiced in GOD my savior. For He hath regarded the low estate of His handmaiden; for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed...
There are three things about Mary that are notable, she had a believing heart; she had a rejoicing heart; she had a pondering heart. Mary believed the angel sent from GOD and agreed with the message the angel brought to her. Mary rejoiced in her spirit, that the baby in her womb was the Son of GOD. She was humbled by the fact that the LORD had chosen a lowly woman to bring forth His Son. She was aware that her baby would be JESUS, the Messiah and she rejoiced. Now, all generations would have the promises fulfilled. Promises that were spoken by the Prophets of old.
Mary's rejoicing was in her heart and out of the abundance of her heart her mouth spoke. Her rejoicing was not with pride, but with great humility. She would be the means by which the Son of GOD would be born.
OH COME, OH COME, IMMANUEL, GOD WITH US (Matthew 1:23)
