Scripture: 67 And his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying, 68Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has visited and redeemed his people 69 and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David, 70 as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from of old, 71 that we should be saved from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us; 72 to show the mercy promised to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant, 73 the oath that he swore to our father Abraham, to grant us 74 that we, being delivered from the hand of our enemies, might serve him without fear, 75 in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
Questions: What does promise, and covenant mean? Was does redeemed mean? Why was Zechariah filled with the Holy Spirit (you may have to read backward a little)? How should we serve God? How would you like to serve God? Is there a gift of Spirit you wish God would give you?

Prayer: God of Peace, we pray you take away our old selves, and leave us renewed with your Spirit. Out with the old and in with the new. Please show us how to serve you faithfully.
