Breaking the Silence — Luke 1:5-25

God told Abraham that his descendants would be in Egypt for 400 years. There, they were clinging to a promise made to their forefathers! It was a promise they did not fully understand.

As Zacharias ministers in the temple, the last direct Word from God was 400 years earlier to the prophet Malachi. The promise of Messiah, the deliverer greater than Moses, is being clung to by a people who do not fully understand. Nonetheless, God is speaking and acting.
