Scripture Reading:

Luke 1:26-38; Isaiah 7:14; Hebrews 1:6

Deep Insight:

“The Herald Angel’s Call” centers on the angel Gabriel’s announcement to Mary, a pivotal moment in salvation history. Gabriel tells her, “You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus” (Luke 1:31). This fulfills Isaiah’s prophecy: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel” (Isaiah 7:14).

The song captures Gabriel’s obedience and the awe surrounding God’s choice to enter the world through a humble maiden. It reflects on the significance of the name Yeshua, meaning “The Lord is salvation.” This isn’t just a name but a declaration of His mission.

Mary’s response, “I am the Lord’s servant… May your word to me be fulfilled” (Luke 1:38), exemplifies submission and faith. The angelic realm marvels at God’s plan, as even they are “ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation” (Hebrews 1:14).

Practical Application:

Consider Mary’s humility and willingness to participate in God’s plan despite the personal cost. Are we open to God’s purposes in our lives, even when they disrupt our plans? Gabriel’s message is a reminder that God often uses ordinary people for extraordinary purposes.

Reflect on the meaning of Yeshua’s name in your life. He is your salvation. Let this truth permeate your heart, leading you to deeper trust and obedience.

Prayer:

Lord God, thank You for choosing Mary to bring Yeshua into the world. Help us to emulate her faith and submission. May we be receptive to Your calling, ready to say, “Let it be unto me according to Your word.” We praise You for Yeshua, our salvation. In His holy name, we pray. Amen.

Song Lyrics

The Herald Angel’s Call

Verse 1:

Gabriel comes with glory bright, sent from El Elyon’s throne
To a maiden pure and light, in Nazareth unknown
“Greetings, favored one,” he says, “Adonai is with you”
“Fear not, for you are blessed, His promise coming true”

Chorus:

Rejoice, rejoice, O favored one
For you shall bear God’s only Son
Yeshua is His holy name
Through Him the world will never be the same

Verse 2:

Mary asks with humble heart, “How can this mystery be?”
“The Ruach HaKodesh will overshadow thee”
“For nothing is impossible when El Shaddai decrees”
She bows in willing service, “Let it be unto me”

Chorus:

Rejoice, rejoice, O favored one
For you shall bear God’s only Son
Yeshua is His holy name
Through Him the world will never be the same

Bridge:

Angels sing in heaven’s realm, marveling at God’s design
Salvation coming through a child, a plan of love divine

Chorus:

Rejoice, rejoice, O favored one
For you shall bear God’s only Son
Yeshua is His holy name
Through Him the world will never be the same
