મફત વાંચન યોજનાઓ અને Zechariah 3:7થી સંબંધિત મનન

The Word encourages us to resist every enemy - even when our enemy is ourselves - and teaches us to receive Jesus’ victory in our lives. 

Often we are caught up in the urgent demands of the day-to-day, and then years go by, and we realize we have not been making the small choices that will get us where we actually wanted to be. Learn how Zerubbabel set an example of persevering and saying YES to the next small brave step God asked of him.

How often do you feel defeated or ashamed in your walk with God? When we realize that God will set the record straight despite any of the enemy’s accusations, we have hope through our trials and a desire to follow Him with grace-infused obedience.

The call for God's covenant people, in Zechariah 9:12, ‘Return to your fortress, you prisoners of hope’, is the key verse for this series. The hope that Zechariah proclaims is hope in God as King, hope that God has come to dwell with us, and hope that the covenant between God and God’s people will be restored. This is the sure hope that holds us captive.

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).

This Advent Guide comes from students, faculty and staff at Belmont University. Advent is that season of waiting that carefully and purposefully helps us to realign our priorities and to glimpse, anew, our place before God. Our humble hope is this guide helps people focus more fully on Jesus Christ through the Advent season.
