Then I looked once more and had another vision. I saw four chariots coming out between two mountains of bronze. The first chariot was pulled by reddish-brown horses, the second by black horses, the third by white horses, and the fourth by dappled horses—all of them mighty. I asked the angel who was talking to me, “What do these represent, my lord?” The angel explained, “These are the four winds of heaven. They are being dispatched after standing before the Lord of all the earth. The black horses are leaving for the land of the north, the white ones for the west, and the dappled for the land of the south.” The strong horses came out eager to patrol the world. He said, “Go and patrol the earth,” and off they went. Then he called to me and said, “Watch, the ones going to the land of the north are going to make my Spirit descend upon that region.”

Like Haggai, Zechariah prophesies during the post-exilic period as Israel began resettling in the Promised Land. Zechariah encourages Israel to remain faithful and prophesies of a coming righteous King who will bring salvation to His people (Zechariah 9:10). This book reminds us that we too must be to what God has called us to, always hopefully anticipating when God Himself “will be king over all the earth” (Zechariah 14:9).
