Luke 1:46-47, 49
And Mary said:
“My soul magnifies the Lord,
And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.
For He who is mighty has done great things for me,
And holy is His name.

Application: 

Mary responded to all of this by praising God in song for His favor and for His mighty deeds on behalf of His people (1:46–55). This song, known as the Magnificat, comes from the Latin translation of a Greek word meaning “magnifies” in English Bibles (1:46). 

Through the Messiah, God would extend mercy to those who fear Him (1:50). Those who recognize their need can expect good things from the Messiah. However, He will also bring judgment, scattering the proud and toppling the mighty (1:51–52). God remembered His covenant and promises to His people, and He would fulfill them (1:54–55).

Notice also that Mary sings, “My spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.” Mary also needed a Savior. The child she delivered will soon deliver her from her sin.*
