The Holy Spirit Will Overshadow You - 'Let it Be to Me According to Your
Will' by Elaine Tavolacci
One of the greatest Scriptures in the Bible was when the angel Gabriel
appeared to Mary and said to her: "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found
favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a
Son, and shall call His name Jesus."
At first Mary questioned the angel asking: "How can this be, since I do not
know a man?" Gabriel replied: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power
of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, the Holy One who is to be
born will be called the Son of God. He also said, "With God nothing will be
impossible." Mary did not doubt what the angel had told her but she simply
replied: "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your
word."
The Lord says, "I come before you this day, and I say to you: rejoice you are
also highly favored. The Holy Spirit shall also come upon you and overshadow
you. Just as Mary physically carried the son of God in her womb, you are also
impregnated with the Holy Spirit and will deliver My promises. He dwells in you,
and you are a carrier of My glory to release light into the darkness and joy
into this world.
"Do not wonder in your mind how impossible situations could come to pass. Do
not be troubled or perplexed about that which is illogical or unattainable in
the natural. I am the God of the impossible and I will watch over My word to
perform it.
"You will release the diverse gifts that I have placed on the inside of you
as My promises are conceived. You shall be carriers of My glory on this earth.
Some of you will bring My word to the nations. Just as Gabriel said to Mary do
not fear, I say to you do not fear. Nothing is too difficult for Me to
accomplish. There are no impossibilities in Me.
"So rejoice and receive these gifts with a thankful heart and simply respond
just as Mary responded: 'Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me
according to thy Word.' Receive all that I have for you. My Word will not return
void but will accomplish what it is sent out to do.
"In the same way that John leaped on the inside of Elizabeth's womb when he
had heard the good news, you will also experience the My joy leaping within your
innermost being as you receive this revelation. A season of rejoicing is also
coming upon you," says the Lord.
"Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of
Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of
the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary. And having come in, the angel
said to her, 'Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you
among women!' But when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and
considered what manner of greeting this was.
"Then the angel said to her, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found
favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a
Son, and shall call His name Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son
of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.
And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His Kingdom there will
be no end.'
"Then Mary said to the angel, 'How can this be, since I do not know a man?'
And the angel answered and said to her, 'The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and
the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who
is to be born will be called the Son of God. Now indeed, Elizabeth your relative
has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her
who was called barren. For with God nothing will be impossible.' Then Mary said,
'Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.'
And the angel departed from her." (Luke 1:26-38)
"And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary that the babe
leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit." (Luke 1:41)
