Intro: Some things are worth waiting for; yet when we get them we wonder why we did not enjoy that blessing all along.
We just passed the Canadian Thanksgiving feast day and the USA one is coming.
After enjoying all the food you can possibly force down your own throat, you sometimes wonder why you waited till the end of November to enjoy such good food.
In todays passage we will see that the people of Israel will one day enjoy full deliverance and salvation from Jesus, and they will ask themselves why they waited so long?!
Review:
A.The Lord Remembers, Lord of Hosts, and now we get to the beginning of the 3rd section where we will see “In that day” repeated over and over again.
B.
Last week we saw many words and phrases that were prophecies to point us to Christ.
We have another one this week.
The Lord will bring salvation.
1-10a
A.A burden - not always nice to hear! 1a
1 of 2 that Zech gives.
Can be hard to understand because they were dealing with all future, and we are dealing with some future and some that is now history.
B.We have to make it clear that we are talking about the Creator God.
verse 1b
1.He Made the heavens and earth
2.He created us - no evolution involved.
Paul did the same thing when talking to the people of Athens in Acts 17
C. Notice the number of times God says, “I will...”
2,4,6,9,10
“The Lord will....” 7, 8
This is God’s work!
The future is in His hands!
D.Notice the number of times we read “In that day...”
3,4,6, 8-2x, 9,11
Same number as God will....
Default mode is to think future events when we read this.
Never been ultimately fulfilled.
though it has been in part.
Is verse 6 talking about the 6 day war of June 5–10, 1967 ?
Could be, but this same thing will happen again at the battle of Armageddon at the end of the tribulation period.
We will see this brought up in chapter 14.
The first 10 verses talk about the attacks of the gentiles to destroy Jews.
Mourning for the Pierced One.
10b-14
A.An important identifier.
Quoted in the NT and is an important identifier!
B.The sadness is a result of seeing Jesus!
We don’t see people seek a Saviour till they are ready to morn their sin!
Conclusion: God wants to remind us that He remembers His people.
He will ultimately deliver them from all who would do them harm.
While the future may not be clear to us...
1.Do we trust God and His plan?
2.Do we understand the impact it will have on people when they see Jesus?
3. What are we doing to help people have a relationship with Jesus now?
