Presented by
Pastor Justin Greene
I will pour out on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and of supplication, so that they will look on Me whom they have pierced; and they will mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only son, and they will weep bitterly over Him like the bitter weeping over a firstborn.

The Divine Tapestry


PART 123

SUDDEN RECOGNITION
Zechariah Part 3
Zechariah 12-13:1 Presented by Pastor Justin Greene April 13, 2014 In February 2002 seventy-seven-year old Frances Foster of Brooklyn was found unconscious on her bathroom floor and mistakenly declared dead by paramedics. For hours the error went undetected until she was being placed in a body bag. According to the womans daughter, a medical examiners official said her mother suddenly moved and opened her eyes and he jumped back, startled. His shock is understandable! The woman had suffered a stroke and was immediately hospitalized when the mistake was discovered. Of course, this woman did not actually die and come back to life, but the nation of Israel has died twice and been resurrected each time. From the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 B.C. until Zerubbabel, Joshua, Zechariah, and the group of about fifty thousand Jews returned soon after 539
1

B.C., the nation of Israel was dead and buried. Then God supernaturally raised this lifeless nation back to life just as he had promised through the prophet Ezekiel (Ezek. 37:1-14). After the Roman destruction, Israel was once more dispersed among the nations, and for almost two thousand years the nation did not exist. But on May 14, 1948, Israel declared itself an independent state and incredibly came back to life once more. Historically, dead nations usually stay that way, and no record of any other nations revival after such a long period is known. Yet everywhere in Scripture Israel is presented as dwelling in their land when Christ returns. As in Zechariahs day, Israels reestablishment in modern times is a result of Gods incredible power. Israel is in a very precarious position today. It is beset by internal and external threats of titanic proportions. We might wonder if this tiny nation can possibly survive. In chapters 12-14 Zechariah provides a panoramic overview of Israels future. So read and be amazed as Gods prophet of twenty-five hundred years ago answers the question, What will happen to Israel?

DONT MISS THIS...

The The

Messiah as Servant, Branch, Stone, Temple Builder, Priest and King (Chapters 3 and 6).

Messiah comes bringing salvation riding on a donkey (9:9).

From The

Judah (messianic line) will come Cornerstone, Tent Peg, Battle Bow (Chapter 10).

the

Good Shepherd sold for 30 pieces of silver (Chapter 11).

The Messiah to be mourned over (Chapter 12). The Good Shepherd to be struck ... sheep scattered
(Chapter 13).

The Millennial Kingdom ... Canaanite free (Chapter 14).

BACKDROP
Zechariah 12:1-9

The God of creation and consciousness makes


a declaration...
Armageddon will happen.

The nations will be drunk with power ... but will herniate themselves trying to move a stone.

Weaklings will look like warriors because of the intervention of God.

Note: This section is a short restatement of earlier passages ... it is only the setting for the Jewel.

THE GEMSTONE

The first nine verses give us a picture of national


salvation. The next six verses give us a picture of personal salvation. Watch as a wave washes over this group revealing:
The amazing work of the Spirit (v. 10).

The sudden recognition of the Savior (v. 10).

The personal awareness of sin (vv. 11-14).

The healing fountain of salvation (13:1).

HOW ABOUT YOU?

Someday every knee will bow before the One who was
pierced for our transgressions (Isaiah 53:5).

Will You Do It Today?
