Luke 1:66 “And all those who heard them kept them in their hearts, saying, “What kind of child will this be?” And the hand of the Lord was with him.”
The hand of the Lord was certainly with John. But what exactly did that mean? The people didn’t know the specifics, but they knew it would be something special. Before the giving of the Spirit at Pentecost, the Spirit was given to certain individuals at certain times. In the case of John, he had the Spirit from birth.
Heavenly Father, thank You for how You have blessed us with Your Spirit. We will praise You for Your plan for us. You know what is best. Your leading is such a comfort to us! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
