DAILY?READINGS: 2 Chronicles 27-28; Ezekiel 44; John 20:1-18
But behold, you will be mute and not able to speak until the day these things take place, because you did not believe my words which will be fulfilled in their own time. Luke 1:20 (NKJV)
Zacharias doubted God’s message and this resulted in his mouth being stopped. What happened to Zacharias in the first century still happens to us today. We may not be physically mute but if we doubt God’s Word and fail to believe what it says we will be unable to open our mouth in either praise or testimony. Our lips are sealed. David said “I believed, therefore have I spoken” (Psalm 116:10). Also “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so” (Psalm 107:2). —Sid Halsband
I believe the Bible, O it is divine!
Heaven’s golden sunlight in its pages shine.
