Zechariah 8-14
6 “This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: All this may seem impossible to you now, a small remnant of God’s people. But is it impossible for me? says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.
7 “This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: You can be sure that I will rescue my people from the east and from the west. 8 I will bring them home again to live safely in Jerusalem. They will be my people, and I will be faithful and just toward them as their God. 9 “This is what the Lord of Heaven’s Armies says: Be strong and finish the task!
-Zech 8
9 Rejoice, O people of Zion! Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem!
Look, your king is coming to you. He is righteous and victorious, yet he is humble, riding on a donkey—riding on a donkey’s colt.
16 On that day the Lord their God will rescue his people, just as a shepherd rescues his sheep. They will sparkle in his land like jewels in a crown.
17 How wonderful and beautiful they will be! The young men will thrive on abundant grain,
and the young women will flourish on new wine. - Zech 9

12 12 By my power I will make my people strong, and by my authority they will go wherever they wish. I, the Lord, have spoken!” - Zech 10
Message:
The LORD will fulfill His promise to His People.
Observation/Promise:
The Lord wants to do great things for His people, and He is more likely to do that which is impossible for us now because He wants to display His power and glory among His children. The Lord will bring me back to His land of Promise. Even though I feel now that it is impossible for me to go back and live among His people, the Lord has promised this to me and it shall happen. But before I am to return, He needs me to accomplish many things now where I am. There's many things to be done but GOD will fulfill it through the work my hands because He has given me the task and by His grace it will be completed. Yeshua will come back for us soon and on that day HE will rescue us in a time of great trouble, we will sparkle like diamonds because He has made us rare treasures in His land of promise. He will make us strong and He will finish His work and the tasks He has set before us because it is His Spirit that is at work within us.
Command/Application:
Be strong
Finish the task! Do what needs to be done
Depend on the Lord for strength
Focus and Remind yourself of GOD's promise
