PRACTICAL POINTS
1. We should acknowledge both great and small things the Lord does for us (Luke 1:39-44).
2. God will act in response to a small measure of faith (Luke 1:45-47;
cf. 2 Thessalonians 3:3).
3. God’s power transforms us into world changers. His power shames the prideful (Luke 1:48-51; cf. John 1:12; 1 Corinthians 1:20).
4. God’s plans make the arrogant stumble and elevate the true believer (Luke 1:51).
5. God puts down those who are high and raises up those who are lowly (Luke 1:52-56; cf. 1 Samuel 2:7).
