Zechariah in the 8th chapter. Zechariah verse 8. Again, and this is the word of
God, 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 be called a city of truth, and
the mountains of the Lord of Hosts the holy mountain. Thus
saith the Lord of hosts, there shall yet old men and old women
dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff
in his hand for a very age. And the streets of the city shall
be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof. Thus
saith the Lord of hosts, if it be marvelous in the eyes of the
remnant of this people in these days, should it also be marvelous
in mine eyes, saith the Lord of hosts. Thus saith the Lord
of hosts, behold, I will save my people from the east country
and from the west country, and I will bring them, and they shall
dwell in the midst of Jerusalem, and they shall be my people,
and I will be their God in truth and in righteousness. Thus saith
the Lord of Hosts, Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these
days these words, by the mouth of the prophets which were in
the day, that the foundation of the house of the Lord of Hosts
was laid, that the temple might be built. For before these days
there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast, neither was
there any peace to him that went out or came in because of the
affliction, for I set all men every one against his neighbor.
But now I will not be unto the residue of this people as in
the former days said the Lord of Hosts. For the seed shall
be prosperous, the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground
shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their
due. And I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all
these things. And it shall come to pass that as ye were a curse
among the heathen, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so
will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing. Fear not, but
let your hands be strong. For thus saith the Lord of hosts,
as I thought to punish you when your fathers provoked me to wrath,
saith the Lord of hosts, and I repented not. So again have
I thought in these days to do well unto Jerusalem and to the
house of Judah. Fear ye not. These are the things
that ye shall do. Speak ye every man the truth
to his neighbor. Execute the judgment of truth
and peace in your gates. And let none of you imagine evil
in your hearts against his neighbor. And love no false oath, for all
these are things that I hate, saith the Lord. And the word
of the Lord of Hosts came unto me, saying, Thus saith the Lord
of Hosts, the fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth,
and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth shall
be to the house of Judah joy, and gladness, and cheerful feasts.
Therefore love the truth, and peace. Thus saith the Lord of
hosts. It shall yet come to pass that
there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities,
and the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying,
Let us go speedily to pray before the Lord, and to seek the Lord
of hosts. I will go also. Yea, many people
and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in
Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord, Thus saith the Lord
of Hosts, In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall
take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take
hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go
with you, for we have heard that God is with you. Amen. God bless the reading of his
word. Here you find at the end of the text this prophecy that
there will be many people who come from around the world. The
inhabitants of one city shall go to another saying, let us
go speedily to pray before the Lord and to seek the Lord of
hosts. This is a picture of revival to come in the world, where many
will come to seek out the Lord, to pray before the Lord of hosts. It said, 10 men shall take hold
out of all languages of nations, even shall take hold of the skirt
of him that is a Jew, saying, we will go with you, for we have
heard that God is with you. And it's going to be an outpouring
where the Lord will have, and here we have to understand that
these are converted Jews, these are not Jews that are staying
in their false religion of Judaism. When we think about Romans 11,
and we think about a day coming in which the Jews will turn to
Christ, and we remember it'll be like life has come to the
world. And you can think about this, when the Jews return to
their God, the people of the world will take note of it. and
they will take hold of the Jew, and they will say, let us go
with you to worship God. Now, we also understand then
that there are those we'll see in the Song of Solomon, right?
When they see the Christian, Jew or Gentile Christian, enraptured
with God, and know the glory of Jesus Christ, and communicate
it to them, that they themselves want to go and seek the Lord.
This is something that will happen for sure, and even happens in
small measures today. When the Christian is enraptured
with their Lord, there are many who the Lord will draw to himself
when they see that. Come, let us go with you because
we have heard that God is with you. We'll consider such things
in the sermon with God's help.
