TEXT: ZECHARIAH 12:10-14.
TOPIC: HE STILL LOVES TO FELLOWSHIP WITH YOU.

Zechariah 12:10-14 [NIV]

[10] “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.

[11] On that day the weeping in Jerusalem will be as great as the weeping of Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.

[12] The land will mourn, each clan by itself, with their wives by themselves: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives,

[13] the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives,

[14] and all the rest of the clans and their wives.

HE STILL LOVES TO FELLOWSHIP WITH YOU.

Because God desires to have a close relationship with His people, He releases Himself to everyone who carefully and honestly seeks Him. Because of His love for His children, He forgives and draws them close to Himself each time they come in repentance before Him. Prophet Zechariah spoke about the grace that God will release upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem and how they will seek Him in supplication and return to Him, pierced by their attitudes of rebellion and rejection. They will also grieve and weep because their eyes will be opened to the atrocities they have committed.

Each time God opens your eyes to the sins you have committed, you need to weep, seeking His cleansing touch to re-connect and build a better relationship with Him.

QUESTION: How do you react whenever God reveals your sins to you?

PRAYER: Release Your spirit to take me to the place of understanding my weakness and grant me all that is needed to turn to You for cleansing everyday of my life, in Jesus' name. Amen!

TEXT ZECHARIAH 12:1-9
TOPIC: GOD WILL ALWAYS PROTECT YOU

Because we live in times where many people doubt the ability of God to protect them. They have turned to other sources for help and protection.

Some Christians have returned to their traditional ways of life while others have gone to babalawos, malams and like to get the needed protection due to the parlous security situation of our nation. God give this Oracle to prophet zechariah for His people with a strong assurance of His ability to protect them from every form of invasion.

He listed the punishment for Nations that come against Jerusalem and the things that He will do for His own people (Judah). This should encourage us to trust in him again as we live on this side of Eternity.

QUESTION :
Where do you go to seek protection when everything seems to be going out of hand?

PRAYER :
Forgive me, O Lord, for running to other places searching for protection when you are always there to protect me. Grant me the Grace to trust in you no matter the problems confronting me, in Jesus' name, Amen.

TEXT: ZECHARIAH 9:14-17
TOPIC: HE WILL DO IT

ZECHARIAH 9:14-17 NIV

14:Then the Lord will appear over them; his arrow will flash like lightning. The Sovereign Lord will sound the trumpet; he will march in the storms of the south,

15:and the Lord Almighty will shield them. They will destroy and overcome with slingstones. They will drink and roar as with wine; they will be full like a bowl used for sprinkling the corners of the altar.

16:The Lord their God will save his people on that day as a shepherd saves his flock. They will sparkle in his land like jewels in a crown.

17:How attractive and beautiful they will be! Grain will make the young men thrive, and new wine the young women.

HE WILL DO IT

The deliverance that God will work for His people against their enemies will be complete for He is a God that starts a thing and brings it to fruition.

The deliverance will present His people to the world in a new dimension.

Verse 17 gives us the picture of the beauty that God will cause to be seen in the young men and women.

We ought to understand that our God is sovereign and powerful enough to deliver us from the challenges that come from the forces of darkness.

As long as we trust in Him, He will showcase us to the world as His people whom He blesses and protects.

QUESTION: What are your thoughts about God as you battle the challenges of life?

PRAYER: Help me, O Lord, to remain focused on You as I experience Your deliverance even in the midst of the pressures that I am exposed to, in Jesus' name. Amen

SUNDAY 21 SEPTEMBER
TOPIC: GOD WILL VISIT US AGAIN
TEXT: ZECHARIAH 8:1-11

The God we serve is merciful and His word assures us that He is always desirous to bring us back to Him so that we can enjoy His blessings. God said, “I am very jealous for Zion; I am burning with jealousy for her.” He wanted to return to Jerusalem and dwell there. He promised to do so then and He is still promising today. Jerusalem shall be called the City of Truth and the Mountain of the Lord Almighty will be called the Holy Mountain. He promised old men and women will sit in the streets of Jerusalem and watch the boys and girls playing. The city will flourish because God’s blessings will be with His people. All promises God made to His people shall be fulfilled.
Sometimes, we do not believe the word of God, but that does not hinder His promises. God is faithful and His word is dependable. The people of old had lost hope and did not believe in God’s promises. God wanted to assure them that He is ever faithful and that His promises are sure. God’s blessings include both spiritual and material. He wants His people to enjoy it besides the eternal blessings He has promised.

QUESTION: What impact are you making in the lives of people around you?

PRAYER: Help me Lord to understand the word of God and obey it totally. Anytime you give an instruction, I must obey, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

TEXT: ZECHARIAH 5:5-11
TOPIC: GOD PUNISHES SINS

ZECHARIAH 5:5-11 NIV

5:Then the angel who was speaking to me came forward and said to me, “Look up and see what is appearing.”

6:I asked, “What is it?” He replied, “It is a basket.” And he added, “This is the iniquity of the people throughout the land.”

7:Then the cover of lead was raised, and there in the basket sat a woman!

8:He said, “This is wickedness,” and he pushed her back into the basket and pushed its lead cover down on it.

9:Then I looked up—and there before me were two women, with the wind in their wings! They had wings like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.

10:“Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the angel who was speaking to me.

11:He replied, “To the country of Babylonia to build a house for it. When the house is ready, the basket will be set there in its place.”

GOD PUNISHES SINS

The Lord revealed many things to the prophets so as to draw the people away from their evil ways back to Him.

After the vision of the flying scroll, God showed Zechariah another vision of the woman in the basket to illustrate that the wickedness of the people had reached a peak and attracted the punishment of the Lord.

We all know that the Babylonian captivity was as a result of the sin of the people and the prophets were told that the basket would be carried by the two women to Babylonia.

God, who is merciful and loving, hates sin and He will surely punish every sin that is not forgiven.

He punished the people of Israel through different means in their days and He will also punish the church today, except we repent.

QUESTION: Do you make light of the sins you have committed or do you seek forgiveness from God?

PRAYERS: Help me, dear Lord, to develop genuine hate for sin and make me seek Your face for forgiveness each time I sin, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

TEXT: ZECHARIAH 5:1-4
TOPIC: CHANGE YOUR ATTITUDE FOR GOD'S GLORY

The Lord expressed His displeasure towards the different attitudes portrayed by the people of Judah through the different visions He showed the prophet.

This section deals with the sins of stealing and swearing falsely. These and many other sins characterize the lives of people today, especially those who are called by the name of the Lord.

People steal at every given opportunity in markets, offices and even in the church and continue to tell lies and swear to show that they are honest in the things they are doing.

The God that hated those sins is the same God that we are serving today. Therefore, we must know that because He never changes, He still hates these sins.

Let's ask Him to change our attitudes and make us people who will stop stealing and start telling the truth.

QUESTION:
How do you feel when you discover that someone has stolen your belongings or sworn falsely?

PRAYERS:
God, please purge us of all the habits that defile us. Make us people that will represent You in this world, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

TEXT: ZECHARIAH 2:1-13
TOPIC: GOD WILL SURELY RESCUE YOU

God's love will manifest in the midst of the challenges that His people are exposed to.

Prophet Habakkuk spoke of the Babylonian captivity and how the Lord chose them to discipline Judah. But when the time would have been fulfilled, God would restore His people and punish Babylon.

Zechariah gives this message of hope and assurance about how God would restore His people because they are the apple of His eye.

We must know that the problems we are facing have an expiry date because God will rescue us from the work of the wicked and grant us the needed peace, victory and all that we need to live for His glory.

QUESTION:
How do you feel when it appears that God has given you up to unbelievers?

PRAYER:
Grant me the ability to persevere amid the challenges that I am passing through so that my faith will stand on the last day, in Jesus' name. Amen.

TEXT: ZECHARIAH 1:7-20
TOPIC: GOD WILL RESTORE THE THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN DESTROYED

God is in the business of correcting the wrongs in the lives of those who return to Him.

The people of Judah were in captivity in Babylon for 70 years and when the time for restoration came, God brought them back.

Prophet Zechariah spoke of the vision he saw of the man amongst the myrtle trees as well as the four horns and four craftsmen.

God explained how He would restore mercy to Jerusalem by taking away the peace from the other nations that had punished His people and restore sanity to Jerusalem.

We need to know that God never forgets His people, no matter the calamity they suffer. Hold unto Him and He will show you mercy.

QUESTION:
What do you want God to restore in your life?

PRAYERS:
Please Lord, I ask that You restore the fortunes that were destroyed as a result of my sins and reconnect me to the source of mercy, in Jesus' name. Amen.

TOPIC: TRUST IN GOD EVEN WHEN HE SEEMS TO BE ABSENT

God is concerned about His children even when things seem to be moving in a way that bring a lot of questions to our minds.

The wicked seem to prosper while the righteous seem to be suffering.

Some have even abandoned the faith and joined the wicked because they feel that God is missing in action. But God gave a strong assurance of His ever-abiding presence with the righteous whenever they are maltreated by the wicked.

He said that He will act in His usual character by punishing the wicked while the righteous will be saved and celebrated.

This is enough to encourage all of us to continue living a righteous life so as to reap the harvest at the appointed time.

QUESTION:
How do you feel whenever God seems to delay in punishing the wicked?

PRAYER:
Help me, dear Lord, to persist even when Your works appear to confuse me, in Jesus' name. Amen

TEXT: MALACHI 3:13-18
TOPIC: KEEP TRUSTING GOD EVEN WHEN YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND

The world we live in gives us many reasons to live devoid of total commitment to God.

Some people who were once serious in the service of God have turned away because they felt that God had abandoned them and blessed those who do not have a relationship with Him.

Some even ask if this God is truly the one He said He is because things do not add up in their minds. But God expects total obedience to His will even when doing what does not seem to make sense to you as an individual.

He wants you to continue to trust and obey Him so that He will establish His purposes in your life at His own appointed time.

QUESTION:
How do you feel when God does not meet your expectations?

PRAYER:
Help me, dear Father, to continue trusting You even when things are not moving smoothly. Please guide me on the path of righteousness as I live, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

TEXT: MALACHI 3:6-12
TOPIC: STOP ROBBING GOD

Tithing has been a subject of hot debate and controversy among Christians.

Some feel that the person who has the tithe can decide what to do with it while others feel differently.

Some teach that tithing is an Old Testament practice that was done away with in the New Testament. As a result, the average Christian has been confused by the many instructions about this subject.

In today's passage, when God spoke about tithe, He accused His people of not doing what He had prescribed.

He then instructed them to bring all tithes into His storehouse so that there would be food so that they would enjoy all the blessings that come from their tithing.

We must practice tithing the way the Lord prescribed it so as to get His blessings.

QUESTION:
What does tithing mean to you and how do you practice it?

PRAYER:
Dear Lord, help me to stop robbing You by not tithing so that I can enjoy the blessings You have in store for me, in Jesus' name. Amen.

TEXT: MALACHI 3:1-5
TOPIC: WE NEED GOD'S CLEANSING..

God is interested in raising a godly generation that will represent Him here on earth. Despite the compromises His people made, He planned to bring about transformation amongst them. He do that through the messenger He was going to send.

That messenger will be like a refiner's fire, a launderer's soap. He will purify and refine us so that we can offer acceptable sacrifices to Him. The cleansing process will not be easy. But that is God's way of preparing the people for Himself.

Therefore, we must check and purge ourselves of any sin so that we can seek His face to receive the cleansing that ushers us into His presence.

QUESTION:
Have you entangled yourself in sin that has taken you far away from God?

PRAYER:
Purge me, O Lord, from any form of contamination and make me a tool in Your hands, in Jesus' name. Amen!
