Luke 1:51-55 He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts;  52 he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate;  53 he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent empty away.  54 He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy,  55 as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his offspring forever.

Three Ways…

(1) Kill Pride (51-52)
God is strong we are not
Pride begins with “thoughts”
Jesus demonstrated astounding humility in His Incarnation (Phil 2)

(2) Be Fed (53)
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness
The hungry know best how to eat
The Lord’s Supper: a vivid reminder of our need to eat

(3) Find Help (54-55)
How-to help is available for all of life’s issues (parenthood, marriage, work, money, etc.)
PREREQUISITE: How-to help is available for salvation (repentance and faith)
