“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 1:34-38 NKJV
Mary couldn’t figure out how she could conceive this revelation of Jesus since she hadn’t had sex with a man. Like us, she assumed she could only have a fresh perspective about Jesus by human means.
But supernatural understanding doesn’t come by natural methods. It’s not by our self effort, but by His Spirit (Zechariah 4:6).
Don’t get caught up in the “how.” Let’s say like Mary, “Let it be to me according to your word.”
