God Who Gives Life To The Dead And Calls Those Things Which Do Not Exist As Though They Did

God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did - Romans 4:17. 

Elizabeth - God who gives life to the dead 

                God who gives life to the dead took away the reproach of Elizabeth by enabling her to conceive in her old age as nothing is too hard for Him. And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well advanced in years - Luke 1:6,7. But the angel said to him: “Do not be afraid, Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John" - Luke 1:13. Now after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying, “Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people” - Luke 1:24,25. 

Mary - God calls those things which do not exist as though they did

                 Mary who believed God's Word and submitted herself to His will was found pregnant through the Holy Spirit as nothing is impossible with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Jesus - Luke 1:31. 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 - Luke 1:34-37. And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” - Luke 1:38. He calls those things which do not exist as though they did. His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit -Matthew 1:18.

                   Let us thank God who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did as nothing is impossible for Him. With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible - Mathew 19:26. Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You - Jeremiah 32:17. Nothing is too hard for our Lord the God of all mankind. I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me? - Jeremiah 32:27. Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the Lord of hosts - Zechariah 4:6.
