"But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John."
Its interesting that the angel came and said "your prayer has been heard". Zacharias was old, so was his wife... So I'm sure they had lost both faith and hope of ever having a child, meaning that they probably stopped praying about having one. The angel said it as if the payer has happened recently! Maybe God was hearing his past prayers?? I mean I know God hear all our prayers and takes them in account. All recorded!... But it's just cool to think Zacharias' past prayers were still being heard! And then finally answered! Gives me reassurance about my unanswered prayers; it's nice to be reminded that He still hears the prayers we've already prayed and will eventually answer in His good time.
