From reading Zechariah 6 through 10
Again the word of the LORD of hosts came to me, saying, "Thus saith the LORD of hosts; I was jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I was jealous for her with great fury.' "Thus saith the LORD; 'I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall …
The Remnant Whom The LORD Shall Call
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: and also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out My Spirit. And …
They obeyed not the voice of the LORD
...And it came to pass, that when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of the LORD their God, for which the LORD their God had sent him to them, even all these words, Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and …
When The LORD Hears Prayer
"Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, 'Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed to Me against Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard.

GOD Does Not Speak In Vain

What About Israel?
"I say then, ‘Hath God cast away His people?’ God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God hath not cast away His people which He foreknew. Wot ye not what the Scripture saith of Elias? How he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying, …
Stay on the Right with the LORD
"And it came to pass a long time after that the LORD had given rest unto Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua waxed old, stricken in age. And Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and said unto them, …
Whose Words Shall Stand?
In a world where there are many words spoken. Some religious, some political, much trivial and inconsequential, talk among family and friends of events, church activities, teaching, and on and on we could go. In the prophet Jeremiah's day following the capture of Jerusalem the people chose to disobey God, even though the prophet had …
Marriage with the Nations
What does the Bible say about the child of God marrying the unrepentant sinner in the world? This was a problem which became evident with Ezra as he looked at the many leaders when they returned to Jerusalem. How would or how should the Christian today handle such things? Hear Ezra's heart: "O LORD God …
The Righteous One’s Glorious Rest

GOD Who Pardons Iniquity
"Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity and passing over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in mercy. He will again have compassion on us, and will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea. …
Romans 11:1-6 Set Aside, But Not Forgotten
Set Aside; But Not Forgotten Romans 11:1-6 Paul has now pointed out clearly Israel’s rejection of Jesus as Messiah. Israel is a very religious people, but lost as a nation. Is this not enough evidence to prove to us that the rejection of Jesus is also rejecting God and His righteousness. It should be enough. …
The House of Israel
There are so many who are telling us that God is finished with Israel. That they are no longer God's chosen people or nation. However, for someone to say that they are going against both the Old Testament prophecies, and the teachings of the New Testament as well. Look at this prophecy through the prophet …
Not Said in Vain
There are many phrases used throughout the prophecy of Ezekiel. "Son of man" how the LORD speaks to Ezekiel, an endearing term for him; another phrase used a little less often is "They, [we],or [you] shall know that I am the LORD". That is the one to which I write today. I have noted that …
