#1. You can never look at your circumstances. This includes your age, your race, your sex,  your ethnic group, etc. Zechariah was an aging priest in the house of The Lord. But yet heaven decided the he and his wife Elizabeth were going to birth 'the one crying out  in the wilderness' who was ordained to prepare the way of the Lord. (Luke 1:5-25) He was about to become a father in his old age.

#2.  Your 'suddenly' takes you to the point of no return. You are now thrust  into an entire new chapter of life. Actually, this isn't just a beginning of a new chapter it is an entire new story of significance and importance of your purpose and destiny that may or may not have been initially revealed to you. You may be surprised but God is not. God has 'suddenly'  started the time clock to the now unfolding new story of victory, purpose, and destiny in your life.

#3.  There almost always is another 'suddenly'. Your suddenly comes with God introducing a new person/people that He has sent and this 'God connection' will always carry what is necessary for the exchange that you need to enter you into and be successful in your new season of life. Zechariah’s wife  Elizabeth is six months pregnant when the next ‘suddenly’ occurs.  (Luke 1:26-38)

#4. You have a new 'normal'. The words “do not be afraid” are a recurring theme. The old is gone and the new has come. Just like Zechariah and Elizabeth your life will never be the same. A series of 'suddenlies' from heaven have now birthed out your Jeremiah 29:11. Welcome to an entirely new story. God's plans are always much better than our own.
