Chapter 1
And the Lord answered gracious and comforting words to the angel who talked with me. So the angel who talked with me said to me, ‘Cry out, Thus says the Lord of hosts: I am exceedingly jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion. Zechariah 1:13-14 – These gracious and comforting words the Lord said was meant to be shared and heard by others than just Zechariah. Such is the case with the gracious and comforting words we have received from God. Of course they are meant for us to take hold of for ourselves, but it’s a message to be shared not a message to be kept. Share then the words you’ve heard. Let the joy you have due to what God has spoken over your life be with others as well. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1115
Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever? But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? So they repented and said, ‘As the Lord of hosts purposed to deal with us for our ways and deeds, so has he dealt with us.’ Zechariah 1:5-6 – Here the prophet is calling the people to look for their fathers who came before them? While it may seems odd for the prophet to ask this question, the purpose is solid. Their fathers were told by God through other prophets about how they needed to turn back to God yet they did not follow those directions. As a result, what God promised would come came and they are no longer around. So where are their fathers? No longer here because they refused to listen to God’s warnings. God wanted a different end for these listeners, just like He wanted a different end for their fathers. What we can takeaway from this passage is that what God says will come, will come. He says in scripture eternal death comes to all who never turn to follow Him. He also says in scripture eternal life comes to any and all who does choose to follow Him. What we get in scripture is a clear view that everything God said would happen actually happened, so we would be foolish to think on this one thing concerning our eternal life/death it wouldn’t actually happen. If then you’ve never made this choice to follow Jesus, please don’t assume God isn’t serious about eternal death. If you were to die today and your story never made the choice to follow Jesus, forever death in Hell is your future. I deeply don’t want that for you and God so deeply didn’t want that end for you that He gave His only Son to die on a cross so that didn’t need to be your ending. Choose Jesus and if you need help in that process please reach out. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2110
Chapter 2
And said to him, “Run, say to that young man, ‘Jerusalem shall be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of people and livestock in it. And I will be to her a wall of fire all around, declares the Lord, and I will be the glory in her midst.’” Zechariah 2:4-5 – In God saying He’d be a wall all around them, we can understand that to mean a few things. One, God is promising to be the protector of His people. His people will be too massive and blessed for any typical wall to keep them safe from harm so He promises to be that protection for them. Also this shows He is going to be the definer of who is a part of His people. We’d be able to judge what is and what isn’t a part of a city like this by if the part we’re looking as is within the walls or not. God’s saying He’ll be that defining factor. He be the one that shows the world who is a part of Him and who isn’t. God promises to protect us and promises to define us as His own. That sounds like a pretty amazing place to call home. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1116
Up! Escape to Zion, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon. For thus said the Lord of hosts, after his glory sent me to the nations who plundered you, for he who touches you touches the apple of his eye…Zechariah 2:7-8 – In this chapter we’re seeing God calling His people home and to Himself. He has created a space for all His people to dwell with Him and away from those who took them from their home. Here God reminds them how precious they are to Him. His people are the “apple of his eye,” an endearing term to show that His people are priceless to Him. He goes further to say that those who touches, or comes against, his people comes against what’s precious to Him. It’s one thing for someone to steal a meaningless item out of your lawn, it’s another thing for someone to steal your child. The value difference between the two is tremendous and your reactions toward each act will be different as well. God is saying here that his child was stolen from Him and abused and He isn’t going to sit still on that. Know today we who follow Jesus are the apple of His eye, people that He loves and protects. He will deal with those who comes against the apple of His eye. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2111
Chapter 3
In that day, declares the Lord of hosts, every one of you will invite his neighbor to come under his vine and under his fig tree. Zechariah 3:10 – The mission we have today from God is no new mission. Long even before the birth of Christ we have passages like this given to the people of God telling them that when the Branch, the Messiah, comes all will invite his neighbor to come and rest under Him. That is still our message and mission today. Tell your neighbor that Jesus, the Branch, has all they need and they can find peace and life in Him. God’s mission hasn’t change from the beginning. He wants His people to come to Himself. Lean into that mission today however, whenever, and with whomever you can. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1117
And the angel said to those who were standing before him, “Remove the filthy garments from him.” And to him he said, “Behold, I have taken your iniquity away from you, and I will clothe you with pure vestments.” Zechariah 3:4 – What’s happening for Joshua the priest, the one whose filthy garments are being removed, is a picture of what takes places when we give our life to Jesus. We come dressed in filthy clothes due to our sin, yet Jesus still welcomes us in to His home. All those accusing and coming at us Jesus pushes them out of His presence and looks at us instead of listening to them. He takes off our filthy clothes and puts on us new, pure clothes. We are purified and made holy when we give our life to Jesus. And notice nothing in the cleansing process Joshua did, it was all God. So it is with us. God isn’t asking us to achieve some level of holiness on our own before approaching Him, He is inviting us into His home even in our filth. He welcomes us but doesn’t leaves us in our filth, as any good father would do. So come, refusing to allow your filth to hold you back from Jesus. He is ready for it and ready to make you clean. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2112
Chapter 4
Then I said to him, “What are these two olive trees on the right and the left of the lampstand?” And a second time I answered and said to him, “What are these two branches of the olive trees, which are beside the two golden pipes from which the golden oil is poured out?” Zechariah 4:11-12 – Have you ever been so amazed with something that all you can do is ask question after question about it then you realize you’ve never given the person you’re asking the questions to a time to answer? That’s what happened here with Zechariah. What I hope you see is that God wasn’t flustered or impatient with Zechariah during this time and He isn’t with us either. God realizes who He is and all that He does can be a lot for us to process when we lean into it, so He’s open to the questions. In fact He longs for us to search Him deeply. Ask questions of God knowing He is wanting to reveal Himself more to you. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1118
For whoever has despised the day of small things shall rejoice, and shall see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. These seven are the eyes of the Lord, which range through the whole earth. Zechariah 4:10 – This refers back to the slow completion of the temple after the Babylonian exile that we read about in Haggai. We see the people being sorrowful over the smallness of the foundation of the temple compared to the glory of the former temple of God. Here though we see a rejoicing coming in the hearts of those who were sorrowful because they see a plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. What does that mean? A plum line is a tool used in building which meant that building was going to continue and things were about to happen. Sorrow for what they see now, but rejoicing because hope had arrived that things weren’t going to remain that way any longer. What we must remember is that whether it is the temple of God in our passage or within our own lives, God isn’t finished and He is still working. Yes, our current situation may seem small and sorrowful, but when we see the hands of Jesus moving and hear His words promising us a better tomorrow, that’s what we find hope in today. Find joy and peace today in the fact that God isn’t done yet with your story and your tomorrow already has God’s hands all over it. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2113
Chapter 5
And he said to me, “What do you see?” I answered, “I see a flying scroll. Its length is twenty cubits, and its width ten cubits.” Zechariah 5:2 – So the scroll was depicting the coming judgement of God on the sinfulness of the nation. It flying meant that the judgment was going to be swift in its coming. One commentary I read over this said how much more likely would people turn to God if the judgment on their sin was as visible as a giant scroll in the sky blocking out the light of God’s grace. While we don’t have that scene happening, our sin is still seen by God and will be judged. Thankfully we have Jesus who gives us the offer of God’s grace and forgiveness. Just know if you haven’t taken that offer you need to. Maybe God’s judgment of sin isn’t visible now, but it will be. Take a hold of the forgiveness He’s offering to you when you can. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1119
Then the angel who talked with me came forward and said to me, “Lift your eyes and see what this is that is going out.” And I said, “What is it?” He said, “This is the basket that is going out.” And he said, “This is their iniquity in all the land.” And behold, the leaden cover was lifted, and there was a woman sitting in the basket! Zechariah 5:5-7 – Understand we are reading prophecies here so while the language used is odd to us, it all had a deeper meaning. Basically we have the woman who is the people of God who are deep in their sin and just content to dwell there (basket equals sinfulness, which is why the woman is sitting in the basket). There are many layers to all this that a short devotion can’t fully dive into, but we can seek to be compare this passage to our story? Are we content sitting in our basket of sin? God has made it clear in His word that anything that pulls us away from Him or divides our devotion to Him He wants far from our story. Yet is there something like this that should be far from your story yet instead you’re sitting in the middle of it? Let’s choose today to get out of the basket. God is inviting us to stop dwelling with sin and dwell with Him. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2114
Chapter 6
Again I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, four chariots came out from between two mountains. And the mountains were mountains of bronze. Zechariah 6:1 – The chariots represented the decrees God has made and the mountain signifies the immovable and unchanging nature of those decrees. Simply put, what God said was going to happen and nothing was going to change that. What God says about our story is the same too. When God says He loves you, nothing is changing that. When God says the only way to Him is through Jesus, nothing is changing that. When God said He is coming back so be ready, nothing is going to change that. What God said stands and will always stand. That means the thing that needs to change is us. Dig deeper into His Word to seek out more of these truths that are unchanging to see what changes need to be made in your own story. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1120
And those who are far off shall come and help to build the temple of the Lord. And you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent me to you. And this shall come to pass, if you will diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God. Zechariah 6:15 – Yesterday’s sermon at our church focused on much of what this last phrase stated. When we obey the voice of the Lord we will see great things happen and promises fulfilled in our life. Does that mean God doesn’t move we we are unfaithful to Him? No, God still works and still moves even when His people are unfaithful to Him, but what is being offered to us is a invitation into a life of intimacy with Him that is connected to obedience. Those who have been far off from the Lord are drawn close to Him and are able to have a hand in His great works being done when we obey His voice. Each day we then have a choice to obey or abandon the voice of God in our story. Do we follow it or do we choose our own path? Know obedience to the Lord’s voice means intimacy with God, blessing, and purposes of God fulfilled in you and through you. Choose to listen and obey the voice of the Lord. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2115
Chapter 7
They made their hearts diamond-hard lest they should hear the law and the words that the Lord of hosts had sent by his Spirit through the former prophets. Therefore great anger came from the Lord of hosts. Zechariah7:12 – Diamonds are known to be so hard that no normal tools can cut into or engrave them like most other stones. This is the type of stone scripture uses to describe their heart towards God. One that was so hardened to the words God was speaking to them. My prayer is today we all soften our hearts to Him. Maybe your story right now is a complete hardness towards God, maybe though it’s just hard in certain areas you don’t want Him messing with in your life. Either way, let God speak there and let Him work on you there. Soften yourself to what He has to say. If His Word has the power to speak a universe into existence, can you imagine what allowing Him to speak into your life could bring? I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1121
…saying to the priests of the house of the Lord of hosts and the prophets, “Should I weep and abstain in the fifth month, as I have done for so many years?” Then the word of the Lord of hosts came to me: “Say to all the people of the land and the priests, ‘When you fasted and mourned in the fifth month and in the seventh, for these seventy years, was it for me that you fasted?” Zechariah 7:3-5 – When Solomon’s temple was burning down by the Babylonians the people of God mourned the loss of the temple and every year during the 70 year exile at the time of year it was burned they fasted and mourned greatly. Yet, they weren’t in exile anymore and the temple was rebuilt, so they are asking if God will allow them to stop mourning. God though speaks and reminds them this mounting wasn’t anything He commanded them to do, so they weren’t in obedience to Him this whole time and it was for their sake, not His, they were doing all this. It causes us to really ask of ourselves are we doing any of our “great” services for the Lord truly for our own glory rather than God’s? Why are we serving, stepping up, sharing, and giving? Is it for God’s name to be greater or our own in the eyes of those who see us serve? It’s so easy to fall into this trap of serving God for our own glory to grow. Let’s be willing to do a heart check and establish if why we serve is at all for our own glory. If so, make a change. Maybe that’s stepping away or changing how you handle yourself in that position. Whatever we do, in word or deed, should be done all for the glory of God. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2116
Chapter 8
Thus says the Lord: I have returned to Zion and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem, and Jerusalem shall be called the faithful city, and the mountain of the Lord of hosts, the holy mountain. Thus says the Lord of hosts: Old men and old women shall again sit in the streets of Jerusalem, each with staff in hand because of great age. And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in its streets. Thus says the Lord of hosts: If it is marvelous in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in my sight, declares the Lord of hosts? Zechariah 8:3-6 – This is the joy of Christmas. God has come to us, made His dwelling among us, and brought us peace. As we read elsewhere in Scripture our Savior was named Emmanuel, God with us. Know God is with us and has brought peace to our story. Lean into Him and the life He offers to taste this marvelous peace He brings. Merry Christmas! I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1122
“For before those days there was no wage for man or any wage for beast, neither was there any safety from the foe for him who went out or came in, for I set every man against his neighbor. But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people as in the former days, declares the Lord of hosts. For there shall be a sowing of peace. The vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its produce, and the heavens shall give their dew. And I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things. And as you have been a byword of cursing among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong.” For thus says the Lord of hosts: “As I purposed to bring disaster to you when your fathers provoked me to wrath, and I did not relent, says the Lord of hosts, so again have I purposed in these days to bring good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear not.” Zechariah 8:10-15 – Longer passage today for our devotion, but what a hope that is attached to all this. God is speaking such good things to His people! That yes, yesterday was filled with trouble and struggle, but from this day on things will be different for those who have turned to follow Him. God is leaning as well into our story and proposing promise to all who follow Him. So what does following Him look like today? Share the love of Jesus with others today. Seek to make as many people that you can know about the life they can have with Jesus. Do this not just so you can experience the peace that is attached to obedience, but so many others can as well. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2117
Chapter 9
Return to your stronghold, O prisoners of hope; today I declare that I will restore to you double. Zechariah9:12 – What God has in store for those who return to Him is beyond anything they’ve had before. We read in Nahum 1:7 that God is our stronghold we are to return to. We read in 2 Corinthians 4:17 that what awaits us in eternal glory outweighs any momentary trouble we see in our story today. Scripture is showing us that in God we have hope for a better tomorrow. What’s been lost will be found and what’s been destroyed can be healed. Allow your path today to be directed towards God. What you need today can be found in Him. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1123
On that day the Lord their God will save them, as the flock of his people; for like the jewels of a crown they shall shine on his land. For how great is his goodness, and how great his beauty! Grain shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the young women. Zechariah 9:16-17 – Once again we see the heart of scripture playing itself out. God is about saving His people. Whatever the enemy may be, no matter how powerful they might be or how much wealth they have, our God is able to save us from them. The whole of scripture speaks to this truth that God is here to save His people. Today then, chose to be a part of the family of God. Understand your wrongs has caused a separation between you and God but Jesus has stepped into your story to cover those wrongs. Now a choice to follow Jesus, a choice to let Him forgive you and a choice of obedience to His words, is what will save you. The whole of scripture is about God desiring to save people and His desire is to save you. If this hasn’t ever been a part of your story before please reach out and allow me to work through any questions you might have. If you have already been saved by Jesus, what can you do today to help someone else find that same salvation? I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2118
Chapter 10
For the household gods utter nonsense, and the diviners see lies; they tell false dreams and give empty consolation. Therefore the people wander like sheep; they are afflicted for lack of a shepherd. Zechariah 10:2 – Listening to the wrong voices leads us to affliction, emptiness, and being lost. This was the reality of God’s people then and is the reality we face still today. When the wrong voices are what’s guiding us we’re going to end up far from where we need to be. Understand this and have compassion when we interact with people who are unbelievers. They just haven’t had the right voice speaking into them; they’ve been led by bad “shepherds” like we see in this chapter. Be a voice that shows God has a new path available to them. Show them that no matter how far off they’ve wandered God can lead them back. He did this in Zechariah and He can do it today. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1124
I will make them strong in the Lord, and they shall walk in his name,” declares the Lord. Zechariah 10:12 – For a people who had been scattered, abused, and despised, hearing that they would now find themselves strong once again would have been so rejuvenating to their spirit. That God was going to restore them to their former glory and beyond. That blessing would once again be in their story. That their name would move from being despised to being honored. The Lord was going to make them strong once again in Himself. Why? So they once again could walk in His name. God was lifting them up, restoring their name, blessing their story, all so they could once again follow His voice and find the promised life they could so easily have in Him. God’s heart for you is to make your story strong in Him too. All so you can boldly walk in His name. So you can live, speak, serve, and love in the way that God in His word has called you to. Yet, we can take the strength God gives and use it to pursue self and sin instead. What a waste that would be though. We are blessed with strength but we use that to run away from the one who provided the strength. Use then whatever God pours into your story to draw closer to the One who is pouring into you. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2119
Chapter 11
Thus said the Lord my God: “Become shepherd of the flock doomed to slaughter.” Zechariah 11:4 – We might not always see the victory we hoped for from our mission. Of course what we want is to see people coming to know and follow Jesus from our efforts to God’s mission. Yet what we see in this passage is a reminder that even when we do everything right, people may still not accept God. Know though God is still wanting them to hear about Him and have a chance to change so we can’t just set some people aside as “doomed.” Speak life to all and show love to all with the hopes all will follow Jesus. Some won’t, but some will. And some will follow Jesus who you never thought would, so keep sharing the good news. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1125
Then the Lord said to me, “Take once more the equipment of a foolish shepherd. For behold, I am raising up in the land a shepherd who does not care for those being destroyed, or seek the young or heal the maimed or nourish the healthy, but devours the flesh of the fat ones, tearing off even their hoofs. Zechariah 11:15-16 – A layer to reading Zechariah that may make it confusing to understand is in his writing he is speaking to the people of the day for current issues in their story, but also pointing to the future of Jesus coming, and also prophesying end time events. Here, a message that fits into each of those time periods, is that we can choose the wrong one to lead us. Here the Lord speaks of a bad shepherd who is to be raised up which many believe is speaking of the antichrist. We see the people in scripture choosing wrong leaders and we even see them rejecting Jesus when He was walking on earth. As a result the wrong shepherds took leadership and lead the people away from the goodness of God. Today, the wrong shepherd for you ultimately is Satan. He is seeking to take you far from the flock of God. He does not care for you and is seeking only to consume you. Temptations and lusts are his play things to attract you to his ways, but the end result will be your end. Who is your shepherd then? Who’s flock have you chosen to stay with? Which shepherd’s voice do you listen to the call of? Let Jesus be the answer to each of those questions. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2120
Chapter 12
The oracle of the word of the Lord concerning Israel: Thus declares the Lord, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him: Zechariah 12:1 – This was interesting to me how God introduced Himself here. Often in the Old Testament when He introduces Himself He reminds them that He was the savior that set them free from the enslavement of Egypt. Here though He reminds them that He is the Creator of all and the giver of life. Sometimes we too need to be reminded of the other attributes of God. Maybe in your situation of life you need reminded that God is unchanging or faithful. Maybe you need reminded that He is forgiving. How different would your situation look if you reminded yourself of all the different attributes of this God that is walking alongside you in this situation? I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1126
Then the clans of Judah shall say to themselves, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem have strength through the Lord of hosts, their God.’ Zechariah 12:5 – Notice who is seeing and acknowledging the strength of Jerusalem. The clans of Judah. Meaning that the people are seeing in themselves and in their own people strength. They aren’t looking at their enemies and seeing strength, they are looking in the mirror and seeing for themselves that God is coming through for them and is supporting them with His strength. A part of our day we may often forget is to acknowledge the deep support of strength we have in our story because of God. If we have the Holy Spirit living within us that means the fullness of God’s strength is within our story everyday wherever we go. How would your day look different if you walked with that truth a part of your steps? So walk today in strength because strength is a part of your walk. If Jesus is in your story then Jesus’ strength in is your story as well. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2121
Chapter 13
And I will put this third into the fire, and refine them as one refines silver, and test them as gold is tested. They will call upon my name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘They are my people’; and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ Zechariah 13:9 – Much of this chapter is illustrating the suffering Jesus was to go through for our behalf. Here we see a truth that many Christians want to overlook or is a truth that when seen as a reality they lose faith. The truth that there will still be suffering and trials even within the believer’s life. If Christ suffered, so will we. Hopefully we won’t have to suffer like He did on the cross, but we must accept that life isn’t free of suffering now that we have Jesus. God is working on us and we live still in a broken world. Until heaven, we must accept suffering is a reality in a believer’s walk, but remember that God has home of perfect peace awaiting us and is with us even in the sufferings of this life. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1127
And on that day, declares the Lord of hosts, I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, so that they shall be remembered no more. And also I will remove from the land the prophets and the spirit of uncleanness. Zechariah 13:2 – Yesterday my sermon was focusing on Idolatry. We discussed how if there is anything in your story directing your actions, defining your relationships, determining your steps, or dictating what’s right for you other than God, then we are listening to a false god in our story. Here in our passage the Lord is speaking of His plans to rid the land of idols, false prophets, and this spirit of uncleanliness. God’s plan is to remove all this from our story…is that our plans though? We must get away from thinking idolatry is just worshiping a golden statue in a temple somewhere. If anything other than Jesus is being the voice we guide our life off of, that voice is who we’re saying is god in our story. Who’s voice then is the one directing, defining, determining, and dictating within your story? If it’s not Jesus, then we need to make a change. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2122
Chapter 14
And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples that wage war against Jerusalem: their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths. Zechariah 14:12 – Ok, I hear you, what a disgusting verse to end the year with! But my hope is that you feel the disgusting nature of this verse. I read a commentary over this passage and it shared that this scene is showing on the outside the death and decay that sin creates on the inside. We don’t like thinking that our sinfulness is really causing any problems within our life, but if the death that sin brought to us was as clear on the outside as the inside we’d be appalled by our actions rather than trying to justify them. While those in Christ are purified and are given life, sin can still bring death and decay into your story. Death in relationships, death of your witness, death in your desire for God. Let 2020 be a different story than that. Let the sin that’s hidden away on the inside be cast out and handed over to God this year. Let’s live alive for God. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 1128
And every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holy to the Lord of hosts, so that all who sacrifice may come and take of them and boil the meat of the sacrifice in them. And there shall no longer be a trader in the house of the Lord of hosts on that day. Zechariah 14:21 – I read this about our passage from the Enduring Word Commentary…”In the glory of the Messiah’s kingdom, what was previously common is made holy; the holy is made holier and the irreclaimably profane is forever shut out. At the end of it all, there is no longer any distinction between the holy and the profane. All is set apart to God and His purposes.” Everything will be made right and holy in God’s kingdom. Take heart when it comes to the unholiness of our world today. It can be so discouraging to see the profane so present and having such power. Listen though to the words of our Lord. The profanity will end someday and God’s holiness will win. God will deal with the sin and the enemy once and for all and in His future kingdom all will be pure and right. Exist today knowing the future is better and seek how you can bring this future glory into today. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2123
