Zechariah 8-14

Zechariah 9:9
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

Because of Zechariah, people were expecting the Messiah to come into Jerusalem riding on a donkey.  When Jesus fulfills this prophecy, the people greet him with cheers and waving palm fronds.

Matthew 21
Now when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, 
 saying to them, "Go into the village in front of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.  If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, 'The Lord needs them,' and he will send them at once." This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying,  "Say to the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on a donkey, and[6] on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.'"  The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.  They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them.  Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.  And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"  And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, "Who is this?"  And the crowds said, "This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee."

Zechariah 6: 12-13
And say to him, 'Thus says the Lord of hosts, "Behold, the man whose name is the Branch: for he shall branch out from his place, and he shall build the temple of the Lord. It is he who shall build the temple of the Lord and shall bear royal honor, and shall sit and rule on his throne. And there shall be a priest on his throne, and the counsel of peace shall be between them both."'

In Matthew 2:23 It says that the prophets had said that Jesus would be called a Nazarene.  However, it never says this in the Old Testament.  Rather, it never says this in the English translation of the Old Testament.  The word Nazarene is a specific derivative of Nazareth which comes from the Hebrew root word "branch".  Several times in the Old Testament, including Zechariah 12, it refers to the Messiah as "The Branch".  And not only will this Branch be the Jewish Messiah, but from Isaiah and Romans, we know that this Branch is also the hope of the gentiles.

Meanwhile...in another part of The Bible
Matthew 2:23
And he went and lived in a city called Nazareth, that what was spoken by the prophets might be fulfilled: "He shall be called a Nazarene."

Romans 15:12
 And again Isaiah says, "The root of Jesse will come, even he who arises to rule the Gentiles; in him will the Gentiles hope."

Haggai 2: 12-13
'If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment and touches with his fold bread or stew or wine or oil or any kind of food, does it become holy?'" The priests answered and said, "No." Then Haggai said, "If someone who is unclean by contact with a dead body touches any of these, does it become unclean?" The priests answered and said, "It does become unclean.

This reminds me of the saying: "If you drop a white glove into the mud, the glove becomes muddy.  The mud does not become glovey."  A little bit of bad can ruin a lot of good, but a little bit of goodf doesn't effect a big batch of bad.

Habakkuk 1:11-12
At kings they scoff, and at rulers they laugh. They laugh at every fortress, for they pile up earth and take it. Then they sweep by like the wind and go on, guilty men, whose own might is their god!

Zephaniah 3: 16-20
On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: "Fear not, O Zion; let not your hands grow weak.  The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.  I will gather those of you who mourn for the festival, so that you will no longer suffer reproach.  Behold, at that time I will deal with all your oppressors. And I will save the lame and gather the outcast, and I will change their shame into praise and renown in all the earth.  At that time I will bring you in, at the time when I gather you together; for I will make you renowned and praised among all the peoples of the earth, when I restore your fortunes before your eyes," says the Lord.

With God in your midst you are capable of so much more than when you consider you own might as godly.

1 Samuel: 17:3-4
And the Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side, with a valley between them.  And there came out from the camp of the Philistines a champion named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span

Nahum 1: 6-7
 Who can stand before his indignation? Who can endure the heat of his anger? His wrath is poured out like fire, and the rocks are broken into pieces by him.  The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him.

God is our safe harbor.  He knows those who seek refuge with Him.

Reading for Wednesday September 25, 2019

Picture
Micah 2: 6-13
"Do not preach"--thus they preach-- "one should not preach of such things; disgrace will not overtake us."  Should this be said, O house of Jacob? Has the Lord grown impatient? Are these his deeds? Do not my words do good to him who walks uprightly?  But lately my people have risen up as an enemy; you strip the rich robe from those who pass by trustingly with no thought of war. The women of my people you drive out from their delightful houses; from their young children you take away my splendor forever.  Arise and go, for this is no place to rest, because of uncleanness that destroys with a grievous destruction.  If a man should go about and utter wind and lies, saying, "I will preach to you of wine and strong drink," he would be the preacher for this people!I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob; I will gather the remnant of Israel; I will set them together like sheep in a fold, like a flock in its pasture, a noisy multitude of men.  He who opens the breach goes up before them; they break through and pass the gate, going out by it. Their king passes on before them, the Lord at their head.

The Daily Way is not about preaching, but about God's Word.  We are merely a multitude of noisy men following the Lord through the narrow gate.

Obadiah 1 - Jonah 4

Jonah 4: 1-4
But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was angry.  And he prayed to the Lord and said, "O Lord, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from disaster.  Therefore now, O Lord, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live." And the Lord said, "Do you do well to be angry?"

Jonah gets angry and makes excuses to God.

Is God showing His sense of humor by responding with "how's that working for you?"

Amos 8: 3
The songs of the temple shall become wailing in that day," declares the Lord GOD.

Amos 9: 14-15
 I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit.  I will plant them on their land, and they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them," says the Lord
 your God.

​Today, what is left of the temple is known as the wailing wall.  Also today, the Jewish people have been restored to the land where they have planted vineyards and gardens of fruit.

Joel 2:11
The Lord utters his voice before his army, for his camp is exceedingly great; he who executes his word is powerful. For the day of the Lord is great and very awesome; who can endure it?

Joel 2:32
And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those who escape, as the Lord has said, and among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord
 calls

All authority belongs to God.  When we execute God's Word, we carry great authority.  And God will call His people from all places, from all nations.

Meanwhile... In another part of The Bible
Matthew 28: 18-20
And Jesus came and said to them, 
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.   Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,  teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.

Matthew 4: 18-22
While walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.  And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."  Immediately they left their nets and followed him.  And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.  Immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.
