Luke 1:39-42
Luk 1:39 Now in those days Mary got up and travelled hurriedly into the hill country, to a town of Judah,
Luk 1:40 and she entered into the house of Zechariah, and greeted Elizabeth.
Luk 1:41 And it happened that when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby in her uterus leaped and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
Luk 1:42 And she yelled with a loud shout and said, “You are blessed among women, and the fruit of your womb is blessed!
prophecy en utero
The angel had told Zechariah that his son would be filled from the Holy Spirit from his mother’s uterus. Now, Elizabeth proclaims a prophecy coming from him while he is still en utero. She passes on a prophecy that John communicated via a kick. John was filled with the Spirit his entire life, but, interestingly enough, he never evidenced that infilling by speaking in tongues. Instead, he prophesied, and evangelised.
LORD, bless our children with such commitment that they cannot even wait to be born before serving, and speaking your gospel.
