Zechariah 8-14<\/a><\/p>\n

Daily Thought<\/h2>\n

Much of the work of God\u2019s prophets is in the proclamation of judgments and the promise of redemption, but sometimes they foretell the future, and Zechariah more than most. It is a future of God\u2019s glory reflected in the salvation of his people, \u201cOn that day the Lord their God will save them, as the flock of his people; for like the jewels of a crown they shall shine on his land\u201d (Zechariah 9:16).\u00a0That day speaks of Jesus Christ, and 500 years before God\u2019s son rode into Jerusalem, Zechariah saw it coming.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBehold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.\u201d ~Zechariah 9:9<\/i><\/p>\n

Just as Zechariah foretold, it happened, \u201cThrowing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it, saying, \u2018Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!\u2019\u201d (Luke 19:35, 38).<\/p>\n

When Zechariah said, \u201cThey weighed out as my wages thirty pieces of silver\u201d (Zechariah 11:12), is it possible he knew it was the price of betrayal? \u201cThen Judas went to the chief priests\u00a0and said, \u2018What will you give me if I deliver him over to you?\u2019 And they paid him thirty pieces of silver\u201d (Matthew 26:14-15). Of those thirty pieces, Zechariah prophesied, \u201c\u2019Throw it to the potter\u2019\u2013the lordly price at which I was priced by them\u201d (Zechariah 11:13), and they did, \u201cSo they took counsel and bought with them the potter\u2019s field as a burial place for strangers\u201d (Matthew 27:7).<\/p>\n

As Jesus, God\u2019s only son (John 3:16), the firstborn of all creation (Colossians 1:15), hung on the cross, \u201cone of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear\u201d (John 19:34); and Zechariah prophesied, \u201cWhen they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn\u201d (Zechariah 12:10).<\/p>\n

Five centuries after Zechariah spoke these words, salvation came in the life and death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and Peter looked to the prophets to explain to a confused crowd, \u201cThis Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified\u201d (Acts 2:23). Everything was right on schedule.\u00a0Prophecy is given, not so we will know all the future holds, but that we will know God who holds all the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLet all the house of Israel therefore know for certain that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.\u201d ~Acts 2:36<\/i><\/p>\n

Daily Prayer<\/h2>\n

All knowing, Almighty God, You are my salvation. You have rescued me from sin, through the blood and the love of Your Son, Jesus Christ. You have brought me into Your family, clothed me in righteousness, and set me apart to be a witness of Your grace.<\/p>\n

You have shown me the future, a great future, a future I can be sure of, with Your Son on the throne and all the world subject to Him. In peace He reigns. I will follow You. Thank You for so great a salvation.<\/p>\n

Amen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
