Thoughts on Today's Verse...

This Messianic message from Zechariah anticipates the day of the Lord's redemption. Many different people from all over the world will come looking for God's great mercy. God's people will have one key phrase on their hearts: "Let's go seek the presence of God. I'm going; why don't you join me?" As believers, we know Jesus has come, died, and was raised from the dead. We know Jesus is returning with salvation for all who truly know and follow him. Let's ask others to join us to go and share the great celebration of grace and salvation at Jesus' return!

My Prayer...

Loving Father, I seek your presence daily in my life. I would be lost and confused without your guidance, love, holiness, and truth. Knowing that my destiny is with you, I look forward to seeing you face-to-face as your child. Please lead me to those who do not know you but are seeking you. Give me eyes to see them, ears to hear their cry, and wisdom to know how to share your grace. Use me to prepare them to meet you at the great Day of Redemption coming with your Son. In the name of Christ Jesus, my Lord. Amen.
