Last Week - Luke 1:37 (ESV) — 37For nothing will be impossible with God.” - Improbable Power

You have lost hope, but still believe IT might happen Elizabeth and Zechariah stand as a REMINDER that IT can still happen through God's Improbable Power

This Week -God's INCONCIEVABLE POWER

PRINCESS PRIDE: Vizzini: He didn’t fall?! Inconceivable! Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

What does it mean? not capable of being imagined or grasped mentally; unbelievable.

Genesis 1:1 (ESV) — 1In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. John 1:1–5 (ESV) — 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. 4In him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Noah and the Ark - Inconcievable Power The Parting of the Red Sea - Inconcievable Power Elijah flying off in a Chariot - Inconcievable Power Jesus Turning Water into Wine, Walking on Water, Forgiving Sins, Raising from the Dead - Inconcievable Power Mary - the Virgin - Pregnant with Baby Jesus - Inconcievable Power Nick and Katie both feeling Called to Adopt when they were dating – Inconcievable Power Prayer

God has the POWER to do the inconceivable and the POWER to get us through the inconceivable

God has the POWER to do the inconceivable…

VS 26: Gabriel (Daniel 8.16; 9.21-27 also possibly 7.16; 10.5) _ prophesies about the Messiah then Gets to announce the coming of the Messiah – Inconcievable Vs 27: A VIRGIN – Mary – 14 – INCONCIEVABLE VS 28-33 – This is pretty INCONCIEVAVLE VS 34 -38 - How Can this be – This is INCOCIEVAVLE

Memory Verse – STATED by Gabriel If God can do THIS, HE can do Anything BACK to Verse 31 – Jesus = God is Salvation Inconcievable that the plan is for this Baby to die for all our sins 1 Peter 2:24 (ESV) — 24He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. This is so INCONCIEVABLE Our Programs and Christmas Songs can make it seem that story is radically different

DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR? Part of the STORY gets missed when you realize the INCONCIEVABLE DIFFICULTY Mary went through

God has the POWER to do the inconceivable and the POWER to get us through the inconceivable…

Being CHOSEN by God does not mean it will be easy - SAYERS Testimony Luke 1. 39-42, 56: Elizabeth Comforts Mary facing the Inconcievable

INTERPRTATION #1 – With Haste equals FEAR INTEPRETATION#2 – With Haste equals EXCITEMENT Either way Elizabeth was definitely was COMFORTING to Mary John 19.25-27; Jesus Comforts Mary facing the Inconcievable
