God called Zariah a young man with an open heart attuned to the Divine voice he was not just a prophet but a man of deep faith and sensitivity chosen to be the bridge between Heaven and Earth at a critical moment in Israel's history Zechariah lived in a period following the Babylonian exile a time when the people of Israel had just returned to their Homeland after 70 years of captivity in a foreign land they had endured hardship far from their homes living under the rule of an Empire that did not share their faith or values now
back in their Promised Land the people of Israel faced a new challenge to rebuild their lives their homes and most importantly the temple of God that had been destroyed however this Monumental task was not easy the hearts of the people were weary and disheartened the sight of the ruins around them made them question whether God was still with them whether the ancient Promises of restoration could still be fulfilled it was a time of uncertainty and a search for hope it was in this context that Zariah received his calling God spoke to him not through a
thunderous voice but in an intimate and profound communion he was called to be a messenger to bring words of Hope and comfort to the people Zariah was not a military leader nor a powerful King he was a prophet a humble servant of God whose mission was to remind the people that God had not forgotten them Zechariah was called to remind the people of their Roots their Divine Purpose and to announce that God was about to do something new and great he was sent to encourage leaders like zerubabel the governor and Joshua the high priest not
to give up on the rebuilding of the temple the temple was not just a physical building it was the symbol of God's presence among the people the center of Israel's spiritual and communal life God used Zechariah to reveal that although the challenges were great and external forces seemed powerful the work of restoration would not be accomplished by human strength or power but by the spirit of God this was a revolutionary message for a people who had so often seen Their Own Strength fail true restoration would come from trusting in the power of God not in
human ability ities Zechariah accepted his calling with humility and determination he knew that the task before him would not be easy but he was confident that with God by his side he could fulfill his mission and so Zariah became the voice of God for a generation that desperately needed to hear that hope was not lost that the glory of Jerusalem would be restored and that God was still active and present in the history of his people this is the beginning of zechariah's Journey a prophet called to bring light in times of Darkness to restore faith
in a God who never abandons his promises and to prepare the way for a future full of Hope and Redemption after Zechariah received the Divine calling his life changed forever the responsibility of being a messenger of God weighed heavily on his shoulders but there was also a deep sense of purpose that drove him it was then that God began to reveal powerful Visions to Zariah visual messages filled with meaning and hope the first of these Visions came in a way he could never have imagined one night while Zechariah was engrossed in prayer he was struck
by an impressive Vision he found himself in a peaceful Valley surrounded by Myrtle trees robust plants full of life which flourished despite the seemingly desolate surroundings the scenery seemed calm but there was something deeply symbolic about it it was then that he noticed a distinctive figure among the trees a knight on a red horse this vision is revealed in chapter 1 of the book of zechariah: 8 the horsemen firm in his Mount looked around with an expression that mixed Serenity and vigilance Zariah watched closely and noticed that the horsemen was not alone around him were
other horsemen each mounted on horses of different colors red chestnut and white the presence of these Horsemen each representing a distinct force or power seemed to indicate something much greater than a simple Gathering of Warriors as Zariah contemplated this Vision the meaning began to unfold in his mind these Horsemen were sent by God Celestial patrols that roam the Earth observing and Reporting the world's conditions they were proof that even in times of apparent abandonment God was Vigilant The Horseman among the myrtles with his Central position was the symbol of God's presence among his his people
a sign that he was attentive to their needs and sufferings the red horse in particular caught zariah's attention in that culture red was often associated with war and conflict but also with the blood that purifies and redeems the red Horsemen represented God's justice ready to act in defense of his people but also the hope of redemption and restoration suddenly Zariah heard a voice that seemed to come from the depths of Heaven it was the angel of the Lord who explained the meaning of the vision he told Zariah that the horsemen had patrolled the Earth and
had found everything at rest and in peace however this peace was not what it seemed it was a deceptive peace a calm before the storm for the world was settled in its iniquity while God's people suffered but God had not forgotten his promises he was about to act to shake this false pieace and to restore Jerusalem the angel then delivered a message of great hope the Lord is exceedingly zealous for Jerusalem and Zion and I'm very angry with the Nations that feel secure I was only a little angry but they added to the disaster with
these words Zariah understood that God was deeply committed to the cause of his people he was not only watching from a distance but was ready to intervene on their behalf to bring Justice and restore what had been destroyed this Vision was not just a promise for the future but also a call to trust Zariah needed to convey to the people that despite appearances God was in control he saw everything understood their pain and was about to bring about a radical change the presence of the horsemen among the myrtles was a guarantee that God's vigilance never
ceased and that the restoration of Jerusalem was not just a possibility but a Divine certainty with this Revelation zachariah's heart filled with courage and determination he knew his mission was vital to bring this message of Hope to the people remind reming them that God was with them even in the darkest moments and so with this first Vision etched in his mind Zariah began to understand the depth and complexity of the mission entrusted to him he knew there would be more Visions more Revelations and he was prepared to be the channel through which God would speak
to his people the first Vision Zariah received was a powerful reminder that God was aware of his people's suffering and that restoration was on its way but the Divine Revelations did not stop there soon Zariah was transported into another Vision equally Laden with meaning deepening his understanding of God's plan for Israel in this new vision Zariah found himself standing before four enormous and threatening horns Rising like mountains before him these horns with their sharp and imposing forms symbolized the oppressive forces that had scattered and subjugated Israel they represented the Nations that over the years had
risen against God's people bringing destruction and Chaos each horn symbolized one of these Powers which had United to spread Terror and suffering among the Israelites Zachariah observed these horns with a mixture of fear and indignation it was as if they embodied all the pain and humiliation his people had endured during the Exile but before despair could take hold of his heart Zariah noticed another figure emerging in the vision four strong men armed with heavy tools appeared before the horns these were the Craftsmen sent with a clear and determined purpose these Craftsmen were Not Mere laborers
they represented the divine power of God to destroy the forces that oppressed Israel each Craftsman was destined to confront and bring down one of the horns symbolizing the defeat of the Nations that had risen against God's people with strength and precision the Craftsmen began to strike the horns breaking them down and reducing them to nothing it was a vision of Justice a reminder that evil no matter how powerful it seemed would not go unpunished under God's Vigilant gaze as Zariah witnessed this scene he felt a wave of relief and confidence the vision of the Craftsman
destroying the horns was a guarantee that God not only knew of his people's afflictions but was also committed to Bringing Justice the Nations that had scattered Israel would be overthrown not by human strength but by divine power this was a clear message God was in control and his plan for restoration included the defeat of those who had oppressed Israel this Vision was not just a promise of Vengeance against Israel's enemies but also a reaffirmation of God's constant care for his people he would not only bring them back to their land but would also ensure that
those who had Afflicted them would pay for their deeds Divine Justice would be fulfilled and Israel would be restored not just physically but spiritually with the certainty that God was by their side Zechariah understood that this Vision was a powerful reminder to the people of Israel that despite the oppressive forces surrounding them God was Stronger the horns might seem insurmountable but the Craftsmen with their Divine tools of Justice were there to destroy them this Vision was a call to renewed trust to Faith in a God who not only sees suffering but acts to eradicate it
with this vision in his mind and heart Zariah knew that his message to the people needed to be clear God is with you he sees the injustices he hears the cries and he is already acting to bring restoration and Justice this certainty should give the people of Israel the courage to continue rebuilding to believe that despite the difficulties a future of peace and prosperity was guaranteed by God and so Zechariah prepared for the next Revelation certain that each vision was not just an image of the present but a window into the Glorious future that God
had promised to his people he was ready to share these Visions with Israel so that everyone would know that despite the adversities the final Victory belonged to the Lord the vision Zariah had received so far had revealed God's deep concern for his people and his plan to restore Justice each image he witnessed brought a new layer of understanding about what was to come and then in in the midst of these Revelations Zariah was transported into a third Vision one that carried a promise full of Hope and renewal in this new vision Zariah saw a man
walking with determination holding a measuring line in his hand this man was clearly on an important Mission and his presence immediately sparked the prophet's curiosity who was he and what was he intending to do Zechariah attentive to every detail realized that the man was heading directly to toward the city of Jerusalem Jerusalem once glorious was now in Ruins its walls crumbled its Gates burned it was a city exposed and vulnerable without the physical protection that once ensured its safety but the man with the measuring line did not seem concerned with the ruins around him he
was there to measure the city to Mark its boundaries and plan its future Zariah understood that this Vision was not just about measuring physical distances but symbolized God's plan for the complete restoration of Jerusalem as he watched Zariah heard the voice of an Angel explaining the significance of this action the man with the measuring line Was preparing Jerusalem to be rebuilt but in a surprising way the New Jerusalem would have no walls in an era when cities relied on walls for protection this idea was Radical How could a city Without Walls survive how could it
be safe the answer came quickly and powerfully I my s will be a wall of fire around it and I will be its Glory within said the Lord with these words Zachariah realized that Jerusalem's protection would no longer come from physical walls but from God himself he would be the invisible yet impenetrable barrier that would guard his people This Promise was more than just an assurance of physical security it was a sign that God would be present in an extraordinary way dwelling among his people protecting them and guiding them this Vision brought immense Comfort to
Zechariah the rebuilding of Jerusalem would not be merely a human endeavor but a Divine project the city would be a New Jerusalem free from the limitations and insecurities of the past it would become a place where the glory of God would shine brightly attracting people from All Nations who would see the city as a Beacon of Hope and peace moreover the fact that Jerusalem would not need walls was a powerful spiritual medic metaphor it meant that God's Community would no longer be confined or isolated instead it would be open welcoming and its security would come
directly from the Lord Divine protection would ensure not only physical safety but also spiritual well-being guaranteeing that Jerusalem would Thrive as a city of peace and Justice this Vision marked an important transition in zechariah's message it wasn't just about the return of the people and the physical rebuilding of the city it was about the complete renewal of the relationship between God and his people the New Jerusalem would be a place where Heaven and Earth would meet where God's presence would be as tangible as the very stones of the streets at this time God was already
for telling what would happen to God's elect they would live in a city created by Him together with the salvation of the Gentiles in the Heavenly Jerusalem with this Vision etched in his mind Zechariah knew he needed to share this message of hope with the people they needed to know that although they were facing difficulties and challenges God was already planning a glorious future for them a future in which his protection would be unfailing and his presence constant and so strengthened by this third Vision Zechariah was more determined than ever to fulfill his mission he
understood that his task was crucial to convey to the people that despite the present circumstances God was designing a bright future future for Jerusalem a future where he himself would be the wall that protected and the light that guided his people and this vision of a Jerusalem Without Walls protected directly by God would be one of the pillars of hope that would sustain Israel in the years to come Zachariah had already received powerful visions that revealed God's plan for the restoration of Jerusalem Divine protection over his people and the certainty that he was in control
of everything but the fourth Vision that unfolded before his eyes brought an even deeper and more personal message touching the very core of the relationship between God and his people the theme of forgiveness and redemption in this Vision Zariah found himself transported to a solemn and unsettling scene before him stood Joshua the high priest a figure of great spiritual importance to the people of Israel Joshua was the religious leader the mediator between God and the people responsible for bringing their supp appliations and sacrifices to the Lord however in this Vision Joshua was not dressed in
his traditional Immaculate Priestly robes instead he was covered in filthy stained garments something completely inappropriate for someone in his position Joshua's filthy garments were not merely an aesthetic problem they symbolized something much more serious they represented the sins of the people of Israel the transgressions and failures that had accumulated over the years separating them from God as the high priest Joshua symbolically bore the guilt of the entire nation and his filthy garments reflected this heavy spiritual burden but the vision did not stop there beside Joshua at his right stood Satan the accuser Satan as an
implacable adversary was ready to point fingers to accuse Joshua and by extension all the people of Israel he was there to argue that because of the filth of their sins Joshua and the people did not deserve to be in God's presence it was a scene of judgment where guilt and condemnation seemed inevitable however at the moment when the tension reached its peak the angel of the Lord intervened in a powerful and unexpected way with unquestionable authority the angel rebuked Satan disarming his accusations the Lord rebuke you Satan the Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you
is not this man a burning stick snatched from the fire with these words Zariah saw that God was not willing to leave his people at the mercy of the enemy's accusations the scene then took a surprising and Grace filled turn the angel commanded that Joshua's filthy garments be removed and that he be dressed in clean radiant robes befitting his role as high priest this act of changing garments was more than just a simple change of clothes it was a profound symbol of God's purification and forgiveness the clean garments represented a new beginning a restoration of
the relationship between God and his people a confirmation that despite their sins Israel was still loved and chosen by God Zechariah understood that this Vision was a powerful message for all the people of Israel it was a reminder that despite their failures God was willing to forgive and restore Joshua with his new garments symbolized the spiritual renewal that God was offering to Israel the Lord was ready to purify his people to remove the guilt that separated them from him and to restore the dignity and purpose they had lost furthermore this Vision brought a clear message
about the importance of repentance and divine grace God not only forgave but also transformed Joshua's new clothes were a promise that by turning to God in sincerity the people of Israel could be renewed not by their own merits but by God's grace and mercy this act of repentance is God manifesting to you today who are watching this video that he fornew what he would do in Jesus Christ we see the Fulfillment of the Prophet zariah's vision for Zariah this Vision was an encouraging reminder that the restoration of Israel did not depend solely on the physical
rebuilding of the city and the temple but also on a deep spiritual renewal God was calling his people to a new life free from the stains of the past clothed in Purity and renewed Purpose with this Vision still Vivid in his mind Zechariah felt A Renewed responsibility to share this message with the people they needed to know that no matter how far they had strayed God was ready to welcome them back to purify them and to restore them it was a message of Hope and a new beginning something every Israelite needed to hear as they
worked together to rebuild their nation and their faith and so with even greater clarity about the mission he had been given Zariah was prepared to continue receiving and delivering God's Visions he knew that the messages he shared were not only for his time but for all generations to come showing God's constant and unchanging love for his people Zechariah immersed in the visions that God was revealing to him had already witnessed messages of Justice forgiveness and hope each Vision brought a new aspect of the divine plan for the restoration of Israel and he began to realize
that this plan involved not only the physical rebuilding of Jerusalem and the temple but also a profound spiritual renewal of the people if it was then that a new vision unfolded before his eyes a vision that would speak directly about the power and anointing of God necessary to accomplish this mission in this fifth Vision Zariah saw a golden lampstand Majestic and radiant with seven lamps shining intensely the image was impressive with the light from the lamps radiating in all directions Illuminating the scene around it beside the lampstand two olive trees stood one on each side
their green leaves full of life contrasting with the golden lampstand the oil from the olive trees flowed continuously to fuel the lamps keeping them burning never going out Zechariah curious to understand the meaning of this Vision asked the angel who was with him what are these things my Lord the Angel's response was filled with spiritual significance a message that would be crucial for the people of Israel at that moment of rebuilding the golden lampstand with its seven lamps represented the presence of God the Holy Spirit who illuminates guides and empowers his people the lamps continually
fueled by the oil from the olive trees symbolize the Divine Light That Never Fades the constant guidance that God offers his people in the midst of challenges the two olive trees in turn were symbols of zerubabel and Joshua the leaders chosen by God to lead the people in the Monumental task of rebuilding the temple and restoring the nation zerubabel the governor and Joshua the high priest had a gigantic task before them rebuilding the temple was not just a matter of erecting walls and altars it was about restoring Israel's spiritual identity Reviving worship and renewing the
Covenant with God the responsibility was overwhelming and the challenges were immense from the scarcity of resources to the opposition of neighboring Nations but this Vision came as a Divine guarantee that they were not alone in in this endeavor the angel then conveyed the central message of this Vision not by might nor by power but by my spirit says the Lord of hosts these words echoed in zechariah's heart with Indescribable Force God was making it clear that the rebuilding of the temple and the restoration of Israel would not depend on military strength material wealth or human
ability success would come through the power of the Holy Spirit who would Empower zerubabel Joshua and all the people to accomplish the work that God had entrusted to them the golden lampstand with its shining lamps was proof that God's light would never be extinguished over Israel the olive trees with their continuous flow of oil symbolized the Divine anointing that would never cease ensuring that zerubabel and Joshua had the necessary power to fulfill their mission God was giving them everything they needed guidance spiritual strength and the Assurance of his constant presence Zechariah understood that this Vision
was not just an encouragement but also a vital instruction for the people they were not to despair in the face of difficulties nor to rely solely on their own efforts instead they were to seek the spirit of God who would sustain and guide them every step of the way the light of the lampstand was a constant reminder that even in the darkest moments God's presence was with them Illuminating their path with this Revelation Zariah felt A Renewed sense of purpose he knew that his mission was to help the people understand that although the task before
them was great God's power was infinitely greater they had no reason to fear for the spirit of the Lord was with them guiding and strengthening them for every challenge they would face and so with his heart full of Hope and confidence Zechariah prepared to share this Vision with zerubabel Joshua and all the people of Israel he knew that with God's spirit as their light and guide nothing would be impossible the light of the lampstand would shine over Israel and the Divine anointing from the olive trees would Empower their leaders to restore the temple and the
nation fulfilling God's promise of a glorious future for his people the previous Vision Zariah received had brought messages of Hope restoration and the Assurance of divine power to accomplish great Deeds but while these promises of renewal filled the prophet's heart with hope there was also a crucial need for justice and purification among the people God in his Holiness could not ignore the transgressions that were corrupting the nation and with this seriousness in mind Zariah was taken into a sixth Vision one that would underline God's commitment to Justice before zariah's eyes appeared a gigantic scroll suspended
in the air flying over the Earth this scroll was unlike any other its Dimensions were enormous which immediately caught the prophet's attention as he drew closer Zariah could see that the scroll was written on both sides what was written there was of extreme importance for it contained a clear and direct message a curse against thieves and against those who swear falsely in God's name the angel accompanying Zariah explained that this flying scroll represented the Divine Justice that was about to manifest on the Earth every word written on the scroll was a proclamation of God's judgment
against sin the curses inscribed Were Meant to purify the land of Acts of dishonesty and falsehood that had infiltrated the lives of the people it was not just a warning but a direct action that would bring real and tangible consequences thieves who acted in the shadows taking what did not belong to them and those who swore falsely using God's name to cover lies and betrayals could no longer Escape Justice the flying scroll symbolized that God's justice was was active penetrating every corner so that no one could hide from it this Vision was a powerful reminder
that God in his Holiness would not tolerate sin especially when it corrupted Justice and truth among his people Zechariah understood that this Vision had a dual purpose on the one hand it was a message of warning those who continued to practice evil would be confronted and judged by God but on the other hand it was also a promise of purification a guarantee that God was was determined to cleanse the land of all Injustice preparing it for the new era of peace and Holiness that he was bringing this Vision was a necessary compliment to the previous
ones God's promise of restoration and blessing was wonderful but for it to be fully realized sin had to be eradicated the presence of the flying scroll meant that the process of purification was already underway God was watching over his people ensuring that the curse would not only expose sin but also eradicate it bringing Justice and righteousness Zechariah knew that this message was crucial for the people of Israel at that moment while they focused on rebuilding the temple in the city they also needed to be mindful of the Reconstruction of their spiritual lives a commitment to
Justice and honesty was fundamental for God's blessing to continue flowing there could be no true restoration without repentance and purification the vision of the flying scroll also reinforced the idea that God was deeply involved in the day-to-day Affairs of his people he was not a distant God but a present and active Lord who cared about how his people lived and interacted Every Act of dishonesty or falsehood was an affront to God's holiness and for that reason he was determined to intervene to purify the nation Zechariah felt the urgency to convey this message to the people
they needed to understand that God's justice was both a warning and a promise a warning to those who persisted in sin and a promise of purification and righteousness for those who sought to live according to God's ways and so as the Visions continued to unfold before him Zariah became increasingly aware of the depth and seriousness of the mission he had been entrusted with he was the bearer of a message that not only brought hope and renewal but also called the people to responsibility and Justice the vision of the flying scroll was a powerful reminder that
God's justice would not fail and that amidst the rest ation there would also be a necessary purification to prepare the way for the future Glory that God had promised [Music] Israel as Zariah continued to receive Visions from God he began to understand the breadth of the divine plan which involved both the purification and renewal of the people of Israel God's justice as shown in the vision of the flying scroll was essential for restoration however there was more to be revealed about the removal of evil that had contaminated the land and so Zariah was taken into
a new vision a disturbing yet deeply meaningful Vision about the fate of wickedness among the people in this seventh Vision Zariah saw a large basket known as an epha which was used for measuring grain but in this Vision was much larger than usual inside the epha he saw something unexpected a woman this female figure was not an ordinary woman she symbolized wickedness itself her presence within the basket was a powerful image representing the iniquity that had infiltrated the life of the people of Israel the woman was seated inside the basket representing sin that had found
a place of rest and acceptance among the people as Zechariah watched something extraordinary happened the heavy Le lid of the basket was quickly lowered sealing The woman Inside the epha this act of sealing was a symbolic and decisive gesture God was confining wickedness preventing it from continuing to contaminate the land the lead seal was a sign that iniquity would be restricted with no more power to corrupt God's people but the vision did not end there Zechariah saw two women with wings like those of STS a surreal and impressive Vision approached the basket with strength and
Grace they lifted the epha into the air and began to carry it away toward the land of shinar known as Babylon the symbol of evil and idolatry in the Old Testament this land associated with Exile and oppression would be the final destination of the confined wickedness the act of carrying the basket to shanar represented the definitive removal of iniquity from the land of Israel God was cleansing the nation removing the wickedness that had caused so much harm and separation between him and his people shanar with its history of rebellion against God would be the place
where wickedness would be confined far from Israel allowing the people of God to experience true spiritual renewal Zechariah understood that this Vision was a vital complement to the ones he had received earlier while the previous Vision spoke of Justice restoration and divine anointing this Vision focused on the removal of evil that had penetrated the life of the people the woman in the epha symbolized all forms of sin and idolatry that had taken root in Israel but God was intervening definitively to eliminate these corrupting influences the vision also carried a message of Hope the removal of
wickedness was not just an act of judgment but a necessary action to prepare the way for the Purity and Holiness that God desired for his people with wickedness removed Israel could experience the fullness of God's blessings and live in a clean land where the divine presence would be felt with renewed intensity Zechariah knew that this Vision had deep implications for the people of Israel it was not just a symbolic image but a promise that God was dealing with sin decisively the iniquity that had caused so much suffering and separation from God was being removed and
taken far away never to find rest among God's people again with this Vision engraved in his mind and heart Zechariah conveyed to the people that the time of purification was underway God was not only restoring but also cleansing the land of all that was unclean preparing Israel for a future where his presence could fully dwell it was a message of great encouragement and challenge a call for the people to turn to God with sincerity knowing that he was removing all the obstacles that had stood between him and his people the visions that Zechariah had received
thus far revealed a god deeply involved with his people bringing Justice purification and ensuring the spiritual renewal of Israel each Vision brought a new dimension of the divine plan revealing both the mercy and power of God when Zechariah was transported into the eighth Vision he was confronted with a powerful image that underscored the absolute sovereignty of God over the entire Earth in this new vision Zariah saw before him two solid and imposing bronze mountains symbolizing the unshakable strength and Justice of God from between these mountains four War chariots began to emerge each pulled by horses
of different colors red black white and dappled the Prophet watched with great attention as these chariots moved advancing with purpose and determination the war chariots were not merely military vehicles they symbolized the spirits of heaven sent by God to patrol the Earth the angel accompanying Zariah explained that these chariots represented the Winds of God his Sovereign forces that roam the entire Earth ensuring that his Divine will is carried out in all nations the bronze Mountains from which they emerged represented the Majestic presence of God immutable and eternal and the starting point of his operations in
the world each of the Chariots moved in a different direction showing that God's Dominion was not limited to a specific region but extended over the entire Earth the red horses moved Eastward the black to the north the white to the west and the dappled to the South this spreading indicated that there was no place on Earth beyond the reach of divine surveillance and control God was was aware of everything happening in the Nations and he was the one directing historical events according to his plan Zechariah understanding the message of this Vision saw in it a
powerful confirmation of God's absolute control over the Destinies of Nations the war chariots as messengers of divine Justice and order were sent to ensure that God's peace Justice and will would Prevail they also served as a warning to the Nations that Rose against God's people no Empire or King was beyond Divine judgment and all would be held accountable for their actions this Vision was particularly significant for the people of Israel who had suffered under the Dominion of foreign powers and witnessed the collapse of their own Nation for them the vision of the war chariots was
a reminder that despite having gone through difficult times God was in control he was overseeing the Nations and kingdoms of the world and no earthly power could Escape his jurisdiction moreover the vision of the Bron 's mountains emphasize that God's power was unshakable and eternal these mountains symbols of strength and stability showed that God's rule could not be shaken by any Earthly Force the destiny of Nations was firmly in God's hands and his Justice would be established in every corner of the Earth for Zariah this Vision brought a deep understanding of Israel's role on the
global stage although they were a small nation that had suffered much the vision of the war chariots assured them that God was using them within a much larger plan that involved All Nations Israel as God's chosen people had a special place in this plan and God Was preparing the world to fulfill his promises to them with this Vision engraved in his heart Zachariah was even more convinced of the importance of his mission he knew he needed to communicate to the people of Israel that although they faced difficulties God's dominion over the world gave them unshakable
hope God was actively involved in the Affairs of the Nations and the final result would be the Fulfillment of his promises of peace and prosperity for Israel Zachariah also understood that this Vision was a call to trust the people of Israel needed to trust in God's Sovereign rule even when circumstances seemed uncertain or threatening they needed to know that regardless of what happened around them God's War chariots were in motion ensuring that his will was done in all parts of the world the Visions Zariah had received up to this point were deeply rooted in the
the theme of restoration and The Sovereign rule of God over the world each Revelation brought a new dimension to God's plan for Israel and for all nations as these Visions unfolded the prophet began to see the broader picture of what God was accomplishing among his people and it was in this context of Hope and promise that Zechariah received a new instruction this time involving a symbolic and deeply significant action God spoke to Zariah instructing him to perform an act that transcended the present moment and pointed to the Glorious future of the people of Israel the
Lord commanded Zariah to make a crown but not an ordinary Crown this Crown was to be made of silver and gold precious metals that symbolized Purity and royalty Zechariah was to place this crown on the head of Joshua the high priest in a ceremony filled with prophetic significance the coronation of Joshua was an unprecedented act normally the high priest was not crowned for the the crown was a symbol reserved for Kings however this prophetic act pointed to something far greater than the present moment in Israel by placing the crown on Joshua's head Zechariah was proclaiming
a profound and Powerful truth the emergence of a future leader who would be both priest and King The Promised Messiah Joshua with the silver and gold crown on his head became a living symbol of what was to come he represented the Messiah who would not only rule as a king bring bringing Justice and peace but also serve as the high priest mediating between God and his people this Messiah would fulfill all the promises made to Israel uniting royal power with spiritual Purity and perfect leadership as Zariah carried out this ceremony he was giving the people
of Israel a vision of the Glorious future God had planned the crown placed on Joshua's head was not just a physical adornment but a prophetic Declaration of the central role the Messiah would play in the restoration of of Israel and the Redemption of the world the Messiah would come as a Divine leader guiding his people with wisdom compassion and power and establishing a kingdom of peace that would never be shaken the crown with its silver and gold shine reflected the light of the radiant future that God had promised but it also represented the fusion of
two offices that had previously been separate in Israel the priesthood and kingship in the Messiah these two roles would be United in a perfect and eternal way he would be the high priest who purified the people's sins and the king who ruled with Justice and Equity as Zariah saw Joshua crowned he understood the depth of this Vision he saw in it not only a promise for the distant future but also a call to Hope in the present the people of Israel who were still struggling to rebuild their nation and restore their faith needed to know
that God Was preparing something extraordinary for them the Messiah was coming and with him the full realization of divine promises this coronation also served as a reminder to the people of Israel that true leadership was not just a matter of temporal power but of serving God with a pure heart and a life dedicated to Justice Joshua as the high priest was the living example of this a leader deeply committed to God and now with the crown on his head symbolizing the coming of an even greater leader with this Clear Vision in his mind Zariah was
ready to share this message of Hope with all the people of Israel they needed to know that despite the struggles and challenges of the present God was working on something much greater something that would culminate in the coming of the Messiah who would be both their King and their high priest as zechariah's visions and messages continued to unfold an increasingly clear picture of Israel's glorious future and the central role of the Messiah began to emerge after Joshua's powerful coronation ceremony which pointed to the Future reign of the Messiah Zariah received a new revelation a prophecy
that would be the main pillar of Messianic hope for the people of Israel Zechariah moved by the spirit of God raised his voice and proclaimed a vision that would bring great joy and anticipation to the people the coming of a just and Savior King this king would not be like Earthly rulers who often governed with a heavy hand seeking power and glory for themselves no this king would be different he would be just governing with Integrity compassion and a heart dedicated to the wellbeing of his people Zechariah announced that this king would come to Jerusalem
in an unexpected and humble manner riding on a donkey the symbol of peace and simplicity this image contrasted sharply with the traditional triumphant entry of kings and chariots or on war horses surrounded by armies and displays of power instead the promised king would choose a path of humility reflecting his nature as a servant and his commitment to peace this prophecy was a clear prefiguration of the Messiah and in time the figure of this king would become fully known as Jesus Christ the one who would bring Salvation to the world Zechariah in describing the king's entry
into Jerusalem was painting a picture of what would later be celebrated as Palm Sunday when Jesus entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey fulfilling this Prophecy with impressive Precision the entry of this King into Jerusalem would not just be a symbolic event but a milestone in the history of Salvation he would come not only to Reign Over Israel but to bring a Salvation that would transcend borders and Nations this just and Savior King would inaugurate a new era in which peace and Justice would not just be aspirations but realities lived under his rule he would be
the Prince of Peace whose Reign would bring reconciliation between God God and Humanity this prophecy also served as a reminder that God's power manifests in ways the world often does not expect while Earthly kingdoms sought power through Force this king would bring Salvation through humility and sacrifice he would teach that true greatness lies in serving that true strength lies in love and that true kingship is dedicated to the well-being and Redemption of all for Zariah the vision of this approaching King was a reaffirmation of the central role Israel would have in God's plan for the
world though they were a small nation often subjugated by greater Powers Israel would be the birthplace of the king who would bring Salvation to All Nations this prophecy therefore was not just for Israel but for the entire world announcing the arrival of a new era of peace and justice under the reign of the Messiah with this prophecy Zechariah completed the picture God was painting for his people he had shown God's justice the necessary purification the anointing of Le ERS and now the crowning moment with the coming of the just and Savior King this was the
climax of divine revelation a future in which the Messiah would reign with Justice bringing lasting peace and salvation to all who believed in him and so Zechariah continued his mission proclaiming the coming of the just and Savior King knowing that each word he spoke was drawing closer to fulfillment and that a new dawn was about to break over Israel and the entire world world as zechariah's Visions reached their climax the final Revelation was perhaps the most powerful of all the promise of a New Jerusalem a place where God's presence would be full and visible and
where peace and prosperity would Reign eternally this Vision was not just a comfort for a people who had suffered so much it was the vision of a glorious future that God Was preparing not only for Israel but for all Humanity Zechariah saw a renewed Jerusalem not limited by the physical boundaries of stone and Bricks but a city where the glory of God illuminated everything in this New Jerusalem there would be no need for a physical Temple for the Lord himself would be the temple dwelling among his people the streets of the city would be filled
with joy and life for God would have removed all pain suffering and wickedness peace would not just be the absence of War but the presence of Justice love and true Brotherhood among all peoples this vision of a New Jerusalem was not just a distant ideal it was a promise that sustained the hearts of the people of Israel especially in times of tribulation they could see through zariah's words that history would not end in destruction or pain on the contrary history would culminate in a new creation where God would make all things new where every tear
would be wiped away and where Humanity would finally live in perfect harmony with the Creator the New Jerusalem that Zariah described was also a symbol of the Final Redemption a Redemption that went beyond the borders of Israel and reached all the peoples of the earth it was not just a restoration of Israel but a renewal of all creation in his vision Zariah saw the Nations walking in the light of the New Jerusalem bringing their wealth their cultures and their honors to glorify God this city would be a place of Welcome where the barriers that separated
people would be broken down and all would live together in peace under the reign of the Messiah our Lord Jesus Christ Zechariah knew that this Vision was more than just a simple hope it was the certainty that God would fulfill his promises the New Jerusalem was the final expression of God's love and faithfulness a place where his Covenant with Israel and with all Humanity would be fully realized this was the city that Abraham Moses and the prophets had glimpsed from afar but that Zechariah now saw clearly and imminently this vision of the New Jerusalem also
challenges us to reflect on the current state of the world and our own Hearts just as Zariah saw the need for purification and renewal for this city to be established we too are called to prepare our hearts for the coming of this Kingdom zechariah's Visions though deeply rooted in the historical context of Israel speak directly to each of us today calling us to live with hope faith and A Renewed commitment to Justice and peace when we reflect on the New Jerusalem we are invited to ask ourselves if we are ready for what is to come
are we living according to the values of this Kingdom that is yet to come but has already begun to manifest in us and through US zechariah's Visions remind us that the future God promises is not just a distant fantasy but a reality we must work and hope for with all our lives as we end this journey through zariah's Visions we are left with a powerful image of a God who not only sees the pain of the present but also guarantees a future of peace and joy for all who believe in him the New Jerusalem is
more than a city it is the symbol of ultimate hope of total Redemption and of God's love that never fails and so with hearts full of Hope and Minds focused on God's promises we move forward knowing that just as zariah's Visions were given to encourage and strengthen the people of Israel they are also given to us as a beacon of light guiding us to the full realization of God's Kingdom in our lives and in the world will we be ready for what is to come zechariah's Visions invite us to prepare to trust and to live
