Zechariah 4:1-7
1 And the angel who talked with me came again and woke me, like a man who is awakened out of his sleep.
2 And he said to me, "What do you see?"
I said, "I see, and behold, a lampstand all of gold, with a bowl on the top of it, and seven lamps on it, with seven lips on each of the lamps that are on the top of it. 3 And there are two olive trees by it, one on the right of the bowl and the other on its left."
4 And I said to the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?"
5 Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, "Do you not know what these are?"
I said, "No, my lord."
6 Then he said to me, "This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the LORD of hosts.
7 Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain. And he shall bring forward the top stone amid shouts of 'Grace, grace to it!'"
Jesus Light of the world, dwells within mankind because of God's Covenant. Jesus is our Cornerstone. The Rock of our Salvation.
We look at Matthew 1 and Luke 3, we find names we do not know. Father God knows all souls. Intimately as Abba. And as Jesus tells us of mankind, some are wheat, sheep, Beloved and some will chose to turn to self interests away from our Father. There is only one Plan. God's Plan.
God's One Plan is Accomplished. Our Abba is the Almighty God of All Creation.
Let there be Light.
The Creation is Good.
The Children of Israel are free.
Moses creates God's Lampstand.
The representation of Light is taken in captivity to Babylon.
The Tools of Moses and of Solomon are returned to the Second Temple.
The Jerusalem Temple is replace by Jesus and His Victory.
The Light of the World dwells in mankind.
Revelation - our light is drawn to Jesus, to His Home. To see His Great Light.
Only because from His Light we have received Grace upon Grace. From His fullness we have received. His Tender Mercy from on High.
When Zechariah tells us in Chapter 4 of the Messiah, Jesus - Zechariah is telling us the difference between the Power of God in the Gift of - Emmanuel - God with us. The Delight of Father God to move from hovering over the waters in Genesis 1 and being placed to sit behind the curtain in the Holy of Holies. Not just visited once a year.
Father God's delight to dwell within those who believe Jesus.
The Holy Spirit providing us an open gate where we can have our soul in the Holy Spirit - allowing us to have confidence that we are so blessed to have Father God's Willingness and Heart - He blesses us to hear us. The gift we will receive, an answer to our Prayers. God is Good.
Abba,
Emmanuel God with us. We have seen a Great Light.
Jesus gathered His Disciples who had seen His miracles for the Blind, the Deaf, the Lame and the Leper. Jesus' first Sunday all of Capernaum came to Hear Jesus. Archaeology tells us Capernaum was 2,000 people. Jesus did not just feed the 5,000, Millenniums of Believers have been fed.
Our King of Kings has arrived.
We ask You fill us, the people we Love. Knowing when Your Plan calls us Home - we want to be greeted by our Father. The Prodigal returns to Father God. As Elizabeth greeted the infant Jesus. Our Joy is in Your Love. Your Love saves us all. Your Good Will and Word. Your Promises eternally.
Christmas in our soul feeding our hearts, body and mind each day.
Great Thanks for the fires of California ending. For the Flu Season to be conquered and healed.
The Joy of Christmas to carry us into all of the New Year. The Light of Christ within us to bring us His Joy.
Jesus is Lord of All. Amen.
