- Why do you think Mary went to see Elizabeth? How did Elizabeth help her? To whom do you go for godly counsel and encouragement? Do you have a spiritual mentor? Are you mentoring a younger believer?
- Elizabeth commended Mary's faith. Are you struggling to believe one of God's promises? Pray for faith to trust Him (Mark 9:24).
Luke 1:39-45English Standard Version (ESV)
Mary Visits Elizabeth
39 In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah, 40 and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. 41 And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, 42 and she exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! 43 And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 And blessed is she who believed that there would be[a] a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.”
