Preparing for the Promise

God always keeps His promises, but many times we fail to believe, we fail to see, we fail to trust. Before we can see His hand at work and His promises fulfilled, God prepares both the circumstances and His people for the coming fulfillment. John the Baptist served that role in the ministry of Christ, and the prophesy of his father Zacharias speaks to us about this role and the work God does through His servants to prepare the way for His deliverance!
