A Warning And A Promise

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 23, 2024

As Jesus rode into Jerusalem, he wept. His coming to Jerusalem would be a 'career-ending moment' for Jerusalem. There's a serious warning here for us. But there's also a promise. Jesus fulfilled Zechariah's prophecy - and Zechariah has more prophecies.

Today is Palm Sunday. It’s the Sunday in the year when we remember that a week before Jesus was crucified, he rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. People took palm branches and shouted out, ‘Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!’ It seems like a very ...read more

A Change Of Clothing

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jan 13, 2019

This sermon is going to review Zechariah’s vision of Joshua the high priest and in doing so suggest if we want to boldly approach God’s throne then we must first put on the clothing that Christ has bought us so that our filthiest of rags might be acceptable in God’s sight!

Clean Garments for the Priests Zechariah 3:1-5 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 How difficult is it to boldly approach the throne of God?

Unexpected Hope Series

Contributed by Rich Mccaskill on Jul 21, 2020

In our confusing and broken world, we can still have hope because of Jesus.

My own journey of hopelessness began when I was 15. As much as I wanted to believe in God, I could not. I could relate to Tolstoy who recounts an "old Eastern fable about a traveler who was taken by surprise in the steppes by a raging wild beast. Trying to save himself from the beast, the ...read more

Prayer, Faith And Worship Series

Contributed by J.d. Tutell on Jan 9, 2012

In the story of Zechariah we see how God moves in prayer and how even a faithful man can have an unfaithful response.

Luke 1:11-20, “Then the angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense. When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and was gripped with fear. But the angel said to him: ‘Do no be afraid, Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth ...read more

The Right Measurement

Contributed by James May on Mar 7, 2004

Zechariah saw a man with a line in his hand. That man was Christ and it is his standards that we all must measure up to.

THE RIGHT MEASUREMENT Zechariah 2:1-2, "I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold a man with a measuring line in his hand. Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said unto me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof." Aren’t you glad for ...read more

A Symbol Of Hope: Plummet

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Dec 12, 2005

We need hope. God gives us a symbol of hope, it is the plummet of Zechariah. God has a plan and in that plan there is great hope.

The Wounded Hands

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 29, 2015

How God Moves In Tiny Things

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 11, 2014

Zechariah ends up in Holy of Holies because of a cast lot. Why would God move through something like that?

What In The World? When it came to which priest went into the Holy of Holies, God’s will was chosen by lot. - Luke 1:9. - This is odd to us. This seems weird. - And yet here it is in the Christmas story. - We want to chase down this line of thought: What does this being part of the ...read more

Anointed Ruler, Divine King

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 15, 2017

The Man Who Thought His Prayer Was Not Answered Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 3, 2011

Zechariah prayed, and thought his prayer was not answered. God, however, not only heard his prayer, but answered in a way he could never have imagined.

“In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. And he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

Grace, Repentance, And Forgiveness

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 8, 2014

The bitterness that we feel when we first realise what we have done is compared to the bitterness of losing an only son. Perhaps in this we begin to understand what it cost the LORD God to secure the free gift of our salvation.

GRACE, REPENTANCE, FORGIVENESS. Zechariah 12:10; Zechariah 13:1. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ loved us before we loved Him (1 John 4:19). God ‘so loved’ us that He sent His Son Jesus into this world to die for our sins (John 3:16). Christ died and rose again, and ever intercedes ...read more
