ZECHARIAH 9 - GOD PROMISES ISRAEL WILL OVERCOME EVERY ENEMY!
For the 5th time (GRACE) Father, Son & Holy Spirit lead me to Zechariah 9.
ISRAEL'S FOES ARE THE SAME ENEMIES OF OLD .. GOD PROMISES THEY WILL BE VICTORIOUS OVER EVERY ONE OF THEM. ZECHARIAH 9:1 SAYS JESUS WILL BE "SHARP & PAINFUL" AGAINST ISRAEL'S ENEMIES, BUT "GENTLE" TOWARD ISRAEL.
17 = OVERCOMING VICTORY ❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗❗
1 This is a message from the Lord: His eyes are on everyone, especially the tribes of Israel. So he pronounces judgment against the cities of Hadrach and Damascus.
2 Judgment will also fall on the nearby city of Hamath, as well as on Tyre and Sidon, whose people are clever.
3 Tyre has built a fortress and piled up silver and gold, as though they were dust or mud from the streets.
4 Now the Lord will punish Tyre with poverty; he will sink its ships and send it up in flames.
5 Both Ashkelon and Gaza will tremble with fear; Ekron will lose all hope. Gaza's king will be killed, and Ashkelon emptied of its people.
6 A mob of half-breeds will settle in Ashdod, and the Lord himself will rob Philistia of pride.
7 No longer will the Philistines eat meat with blood in it or any unclean food. They will become part of the people of our God from the tribe of Judah. And God will accept the people of Ekron, as he did the Jebusites.
8 God says, “I will stand guard to protect my temple from those who come to attack. I know what's happening, and no one will mistreat my people ever again.”
9 Everyone in Jerusalem, celebrate and shout! Your king has won a victory, and he is coming to you. He is humble and rides on a donkey; he comes on the colt of a donkey.
10 I, the Lord, will take away war chariots and horses from Israel and Jerusalem. Bows that were made for battle will be broken. I will bring peace to nations, and your king will rule from sea to sea. His kingdom will reach from the Euphrates River across the earth.
11 When I made a sacred agreement with you, my people, we sealed it with blood. Now some of you are captives in waterless pits, but I will come to your rescue
12 and offer you hope. Return to your fortress, because today I will reward you with twice what you had.
13 I will use Judah as my bow and Israel as my arrow. I will take the people of Zion as my sword and attack the Greeks.
14 Like a cloud, the Lord God will appear over his people, and his arrows will flash like lightning. God will sound his trumpet and attack in a whirlwind from the south.
15 The Lord All-Powerful will protect his people, and they will trample down the sharpshooters and their slingshots. They will drink and get rowdy; they will be as full as a bowl at the time of sacrifice.
16 The Lord God will save them on that day, because they are his people, and they will shine on his land like jewels in a crown.
17 How lovely they will be. Young people will grow there like grain in a field or grapes in a vineyard.“
Zechariah 9:1-17 CEV
IF YOU DIED TONIGHT IN YOUR SLEEP, ARE YOU CONFIDENT THAT YOU WOULD SPEND ETERNITY IN HEAVEN?
Jesus is the ONLY WAY!!!
BY ACKNOWLEDGING WITH YOUR WORDS (FROM YOUR HEART) THAT JESUS IS YOUR LORD & SAVIOR, YOU ARE SAVED FOR ALL ETERNITY.
GOD DOES NOT EXPECT US TO BE PERFECT, BUT HE REQUIRES THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT HIS SON IS THE CHRIST WHO CAME TO TAKE AWAY YOUR SINS & TO MAKE A WAY FOR YOU TO SPEND ALL ETERNITY IN HEAVEN WHEN YOUR LIFE HERE ON EARTH IS FINISHED.
IF YOU HAVE NOT MADE JESUS THE LORD OF YOUR LIFE, DON'T WAIT ANOTHER MINUTE SAY THIS PRAYER NOW (MUST BE SAID ALOUD):
Father God, I recognize I am a sinner. I come to you asking forgiveness of my sins. I confess in my heart and speak with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Your Son, and He died on the cross for my sins. I confess Jesus as the Lord of my heart, my soul and my life. I accept Jesus as my personal Savior and I praise You for making a way for me. I declare by the Blood of Jesus that I am saved. Jesus, I invite You into my life, and I pray You continue to reveal your LOVE to me by Your Holy Spirit. I ask You to have Your way with my life. I thank You for the new creation You have made me.
