Luke 1:45

And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.” – Luke 1:45

This is Elizabeth’s word when she was filled with the Holy Spirit. She didn’t kneel before Mary nor pray to her. She was filled with joy and gladness to behold a woman who’s been chosen by God to carry out His will, to bring salvation to the world.

Who in the world would not be blessed, knowing that?

She said, “You are blessed among women, and you are blessed because you believed, not like my husband who doubted God’s words. You believed that will use you to carry out His will here on earth to bring salvation to the world.”

Imagine: these are Jewish ladies waiting for hundreds of years for their Messiah. Elizabeth is aware of the weight of what Mary would face. MAry can stone to death. Mary was betrothed to Joseph. She was a virgin, yet she was found pregnant. Not everybody knew she was given an assignment: to conceive the Savior of the world. That’s why she admires Mary’s faith and her willingness to fulfill God’s assignment over here on Earth.

So if you are like Elizabeth that admire Mary’s faith, then be like Mary not worship mary!!
