Today we are reading Zechariah 9. In this chapter we read about the coming of the Messiah. Think of how comforting these words were to the exiles who came back to a broken and devastated land. “Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.” Zechariah 9:9 ESV How are these days under the shadow of the virus like the days of Zechariah? What would cause you to rejoice right now? Just as God saw the suffering of His people at the hands of their captors, God sees our suffering under this virus. As we come to God in repentance we receive the most important deliverance—forgiveness of our sin. May God bless you to focus on what is most important. Pastor Tim
