GABRIEL

“I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee,

and to shew thee these glad tidings.”

luke 1:19 (kjv)

Scripture records Gabriel’s presence a handful of times. The book of Daniel speaks of Gabriel bringing Daniel the news that his prayers had been answered, but that spiritual warfare had delayed the message. Gabriel is also mentioned in the book of Luke as the angel delivering the Good News of babies to Zechariah, the father of John, and to Mary, the mother of Jesus.

He carried some of the greatest messages from heaven to earth and, with them, the understanding that everything was going exactly according to God’s plan and not just happenstance.

Do you ever desire that clear word from God? A word of encouragement directly from heaven that will help you keep walking the walk? Sweet friend, we are so blessed to have that access to the Word. Each day, we can find comfort, direction, and encouragement for our daily lives. Making a consistent walk through the Bible is essential to our hearts and homes being exactly what it can—and should be—for Christ.

Father, keep me in Your Word daily so that I can continue to hear from

You and lean on You for instruction on how to live this life.
