TOPIC - ANGELS AND ANSWERED PRAYERS (II)
Read Luke 1:8-17
8. And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,
9. According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
10. And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
11. And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12. And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13. But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
14. And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15. For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
16. And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
17. And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
MEMORISE: Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense (Luke 1:11)
EXPOSITION
Reading through the book of Exodus 30:34-38, incense was a substance to be compounded and burned on the altar. It was sweet (Exo. 25:6; 30:7, 34a). It was pure (Exo. 37:29). It was mixed with the anointing oil (Exo. 25:6; 37:29). It was part of the offerings in the Sanctuary of God (Exo. 25:1). It attracted the presence of God (Exo. 30:36). It should be burned throughout the generations of the Israelites (Exo. 30:10). These characteristics and more are beauties of prayers in the life of the Christians. In a nutshell, incense represented prayers of the children of God. In the New Testament, this same symbol is found in Luke 1:8-10.
While Zachariah was burning incense in the Holy of Holies, suddenly, an angel, whose name was Gabriel, appeared to him, in order to deliver his answers to him. The contents of his answered prayers were analysed to him. Any time God wants to answer the prayers of His saints, He sends His angels to deliver the answers to them. The message from God through angel Gabriel terminated barrenness in the ministry and family of Zachariah and Elizabeth. God can also terminate any form of barrenness in your destiny and family situations, today, as He sends His angels to come, bless you, and grant you answer to your prayers.
Whatever you ask in the name of Jesus Christ can be granted to you through angelic ministry. There are angels in charge of answers delivery to the prayers of the saints. Make your prayer life, sweet, pure, holy, fervent and full of fire. Let your prayers be attractive to God and the altar of your prayers will be full of answers, and not only the sweat.
PRAYER POINTS
1. God of all flesh, send Your angels to wipe away the tears and reproaches of Your children, in Jesus' name.
2. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, honour the prayers of Your redeemed people and give them joy, once again.
3. Holy Spirit, empower the angels that bring answers to prayers of Your people over our nation.
