The prophet Zechariah started his prophetic ministry two months after Haggai (Haggai 1:1 and Zechariah 1:1). His purpose was the same as that of Haggai. He encouraged the Jews who had returned from Babylonian captivity to complete the work started on the temple fifteen years earlier. Through a series of eight visions, Zechariah shared with the people of Israel how God was moving to protect and defend them. Zechariah’s writing calls for the people to be aware of the presence of God today. To see how God is blessing and guiding his people. It is an important point for us to embed in our hearts. God is moving today in the lives of His people. The Book of Zechariah ends (chapters 9 through 14), with a beautiful picture of the future. Zechariah told the people of God that the Messiah and His kingdom were coming! The future was bright with the glory of God! Zechariah offered a hope for the future that shaped the today of God’s people. The New Testament writers will quote from Zechariah many times as we follow the events of Jesus and the church. God still holds the future in His hands. He still offers hope for tomorrow that encourages us today!
