From our study of a book full of visions, Zechariah Chapter 14 brings us to the final vision of God's plan, where the Lord ultimately intervenes in human history to reconcile to Himself all peoples in the coming Day of the Lord. In Today’s Word Pastor Brett Meador takes one last look of the last chapter of Zechariah resulting in the ultimate peace to Jerusalem.

“The Day of the Lord” is used in Scripture to describe a time when God intervenes in humanity to usher in a period of wrath to punish the wicked and to help the Jews eventually see the true Messiah. Pastor Brett Meador opens Today’s Word to Zechariah Chapter 14, sharing vital details about what people will experience and how the Jews will respond when these things come to pass.

The Old Testament book of Zechariah Chapters 12 and 13 prophesy an eventual supernatural defense of Jerusalem from the coming antichrist by God, culminating in the repentance of His people. Pastor Brett Meador notes in this verse- by-verse study from Today’s Word our trust is in the light of God’s ultimate plan and purpose for us all amidst the darkness of the world.

To the nation of Israel, though God may seem distant at times, He was and is actively accomplishing His purposes while calling His people to recognize Him. In Today’s Word, as Pastor Brett Meador turns to the prophecy contained in Zechariah Chapter 12, we see God lovingly pouring out a "Spirit of grace and supplication" on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Our study of Zechariah has revealed that it’s a book packed with important prophecies that are even developing before our very eyes as we watch nations try to meddle with Israel. But turning to chapters 12 and 13, Pastor Brett Meador also notes what will happen to these nations and the response of the Jews when these things eventually come to pass . . . in Today’s Word.

It’s remarkable that Zechariah’s prophecy concerning the future of Jerusalem in the coming millennial kingdom depicting a fountain of water springing up, foretells the fountain of living water, the Lord Jesus Christ. In Today’s Word, Pastor Bret Meador reflects on His work on the cross, and how we will never thirst again if we drink from the living water He offers.

The Old Testament prophet Zechariah describes an intriguing fountain that will literally spring forth in Jerusalem at a time yet to come. But what this fountain symbolizes, and what it means for us today and End Times prophesy is what Pastor Brett Meador will be highlighting as he returns to the book of Zechariah Chapter 13 in our continuing study of Today’s Word.

We’ve learned in Today’s Word of the several visions given the prophet Zechariah to instruct God’s people. But Chapter 11 presents a striking moment where God’s shepherd is valued at a mere thirty pieces of silver, revealing more rejection by the people of that day. But with the hardened hearts exposed, Pastor Brett Meador reflects on the prophecy of a greater betrayal.

We learn from the book of Zechariah that even after the temple was rebuilt following the Israel’s exile, the people chose to reject the Lord - doing what was right in their own eyes. But in Today’s Word Pastor Brett Meador recognizes the same kind of rebellion we see all around us even today as we continue our verse-by-verse study through Zechariah Chapter 11.

By all accounts, the nation of Israel has endured ongoing conflict from neighboring aggressors. But drawing from the prophet Zechariah in Today’s Word, Pastor Brett Meador anticipates the coming Day of the Lord when Jerusalem’s enemies will encounter the return of the Jesus intervening for His people as a conquering King – come to fulfill His sovereign purposes.

The Old Testament book of Zechariah gives us various details about Jerusalem and how the world's nations will come against it in the Last Days. And Pastor Brett Meador says in our very day, we see how the current geopolitical climate is setting the stage for these verses to be fulfilled, along with many other End Times events all contained for us in Today’s Word.

A study of the book of Zechariah, reveals God as the Divine Redeemer who rescues, restores, and strengthens His people. Though the Children of Israel were scattered, the Lord has made good on His promise to restore their land, with a divine regathering yet to come. Pastor Brett Meador reminds us from Today’s Word that our hope too is secure in a Redeemer who is coming again.

Despite everything they had done and gone through, and things yet to come, God’s divine influence has always been upon the people of Israel. From Zechariah 10, Pastor Brett Meador illustrates how this has specifically been manifested in them, and what we can similarly expect as Children of God. In Today’s Word, the importance of heeding the purposes of the Lord.

The prophet Zechariah spoke to a discouraged people, encouraging them to renew their faith calling God’s people to seek the Lord as the source of every blessing, rather than trusting in idols or empty leaders. In Today’s Word Pastor Brett Meador finds encouragement that even when God may seem distant the Holy Spirit offers lasting hope for all who turn to Him.

Throughout history the control of Jerusalem and its surrounding region has been hotly contested by rival empires, peoples, and faiths. Yet the first verses of Zechariah Chapter 12 paint a simple but powerful picture: when people push against God’s plans, it just doesn’t go well. Pastor Bret Meador reminds us from Today’s Word God’s purpose for Jerusalem is a certainty.

It seems as though Israel makes the nightly news regularly. But the Old Testament prophet Zechariah provides us various details too about Jerusalem and how the world's nations will come against it in the Last Days. And so on Today’s Word Pastor Brett Meador considers how the current geopolitical climate is setting the stage for these verses fulfilling End Times events.
