Zech 10:9–12

10:9
Though I scatter them among the nations, they will remember in far-off
places—they and their children will survive and return.
10
I will bring them back from Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will
bring them to the lands of Gilead and Lebanon, and there will not be enough
room for them.
11
The Lord will cross the sea of storms and will calm its turbulence. The
depths of the Nile will dry up, the pride of Assyria will be humbled, and
the domination of Egypt will be no more.
12
Thus I will strengthen them by my power, and they will walk about in my
name,” says the Lord.

 

 

One thought:

Israel was made a nation of refugees. How great the promise of coming home.

 

Three questions:

Why did God scatter Israel?

Do you rejoice at being gathered with God’s people?

How often do you get to church on a Sunday? How high a priority should it be?

Prayer:

Praise God that He redeems and gathers His people from foreign kingdoms, even the kingdom of darkness.

Give thanks that you have been returned to true King and kingdom along with all God’s people.

Ask God to help you + someone else rejoice and celebrate what God has done for you by prioritising gathering with His people.
