  • Who Else
  • Zechariah 4:8–10 NKJV
    8 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 9 “The hands of Zerubbabel Have laid the foundation of this temple; His hands shall also finish it. Then you will know That the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. 10 For who has despised the day of small things? For these seven rejoice to see The plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. They are the eyes of the Lord, Which scan to and fro throughout the whole earth.”
    The Book of Zechariah
    The largest book of the minor Prophet
    The Book of Zechariah
    The largest book of the minor Prophet
    Was a call to repent, return, and restore
    Rebuilding the temple
    A Symbolic expression of a changing heart
    Rebuilding the temple
    A Symbolic expression of a changing heart
    Did not make people right with God
    Rebuilding the temple
    A Symbolic expression of a changing heart
    Did not make people right with God
    Was an indicator of shifting priorities
    Who was Zerubbabel?
    His name ment ”Seed of Babylon”
    Who was Zerubbabel?
    His name ment ”Seed of Babylon”
    He was born in Exile
    Who was Zerubbabel?
    His name ment ”Seed of Babylon”
    He was born in Exile
    He linked the past and the post exilic community in Judah
    Zechariah 4:9–10 NKJV
    9 “The hands of Zerubbabel Have laid the foundation of this temple; His hands shall also finish it. Then you will know That the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. 10 For who has despised the day of small things? For these seven rejoice to see The plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel. They are the eyes of the Lord, Which scan to and fro throughout the whole earth.”

    God Values A Good Start

    Galatians 5:7 NKJV
    7 You ran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?
    Laying the Foundation represented
    The rebirth of the kingdom of Judah
    The restoration after destruction and exile
    Prophetic encouragement

    Laying the foundation was not enough

    The Prophet declares He would both
    Lay the foundation
    Finish the temple

    God Values How We Run

    1 Corinthians 9:24 NKJV
    24 Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.

    We must run to win

    Why is running to win so important?

    Those who run to win run
    With Purpose
    With Persistence
    With the Prize in focus

    God Values How We Finish

    Matthew 24:10–13 NKJV
    10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved.
    Just keep running
    When offenses come
    When you feel betrayed
    When you feel hated
    Ecclesiastes 9:11 NKJV
    11 I returned and saw under the sun that— The race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all.

    We don’t alway feel deserving

    Why ______ if I am not _____
    Run, the Fastest
    Fight, the strongest
    Take the test, the smartest
    Try, as good as others
    God gives everybody
    The Same Time
    The Same Chance

    God is working in you

    Philippians 2:13 NKJV
    13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

    God Values You

    Ephesians 2:10 NKJV
    10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
    God Doesn’t
    Make mistakes
    Make junk
    Philippians 1:6 NKJV
    6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

    This is Paul’s Confidence

    What God has started
    Is a good work
    Is at work in you
    He will Finish
