Lessons from the life of Mary - Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker draws parallels between the Holy Spirit coming upon Mary to conceive Jesus and the experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit, emphasizing that the purpose is to produce Christ's character in one's life. He stresses that believers must operate by believing God's word without analysis, as no word from God is without power. Furthermore, true service to Christ's body requires a willingness to endure reproach, as Mary did, and the speaker notes that Mary's initial questioning was different from Zacharias's because she had no historical example of a virgin birth.
