ZACHARIAS
Posted on: 19-09-2019
Some times in life we get very sad when there is delay in receiving blessings in our life. Our faith in the lord Yeshua the Messiah, is shaken because when we receive the answer that things will be fulfilled in their time. For instance, if we look at birth of John the Baptist foretold by Gabriel, to Zacharias in the temple of the Lord. Zacharias did not believed the prophecy and was speechless till the fulfillment of the prophecy.
It was a blessing but due to doubt looking at their old age Zacharias could not understand. He was fixed, yet he understood the fundamental thing that even though I do not understand the prophecy, God is my provider. Adonai Yeshua the Messiah is my camp and protection. He is my deliverer and blessings, my calling in Christ. Remember Zacharias was a priest in the temple of Lord. He was having the scriptures which we have in Old Testament. There was no new Testament as the Adonai Yeshua the Messiah was not born as a human being in the Israel.
Like Zacharias (means to “Know”) we need to have personal relationship with God, then only in times of trouble or in delay of receiving the blessings. It is written; “Then I said to you, Do not dread them nor be afraid of them. Jehovah your God who goes before you shall fight for you, according to all that He did for you in Egypt before your eyes, and in the wilderness where you have seen how Jehovah your God carried you, as a man carries his son, in all the way that you went until you came into this place. Yet in this thing you did not believe Jehovah your God, who went in the way before you to search you out a place to pitch your tents, in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in a cloud by day. (Deu 1:29-33)”.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God; when shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day, Where is your God? (Psa 42:2-3). I Jehovah have called You in righteousness, and will hold Your hand, and will keep You, and give You for a covenant of the people, for a Light of the nations; (Isa 42:6). When we rely on God for all the problems and situations of our life, we get advantage in spiritual warfare, And it happened, when they brought out those kings to Joshua, Joshua called for all the men of Israel. And he said to the commanders of the men of war who had gone with him, Draw near, set your feet on the necks of these kings. And they drew near and put their feet on their necks. And Joshua said to them, Do not fear nor be dismayed. Be strong and of good courage. For so shall Jehovah do to all your enemies against whom you fight. (Jos 10:24-25).
