No word from God has ever failed
No word from God has ever failed. Mary, the proof is in your cousin Elizabeth. She couldn't conceive but in her old age she's with child.
The question is how do we know the information is from God?
An angel visits (but satan has angels too)
It makes sense given God's character
It's supported in scripture (although satan used scripture with Jesus)
Other Christians support it. (although you could be the first hearer of the news so you need to wait on others to hear)
I have to admit I'm hesitant to say I've heard from God. This takes on a new level of responsibility because if you're wrong there is trouble. Like Elizabeth I think it's wise to become silent when you hear from God to watch what He says come into being but then again, maybe this is showing a lack of faith.
Lord Jesus, please guide us and direct us. Help us to hear Your voice and obey it, in Jesus name. (I've heard it said, God doesn't speak until you've done the last thing He told you to do so don't hesitate to obey him)
