Zechariah 9:12
Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.
MEDITATION:
This is a message full of hope: « GOD WANTS TO RESTORE DOUBLE TO US FOR EVERYTHING WE HAVE LOST. »
In fact, God can restore double to us in quantity and in quality, as He has already done for others !
When Job lost everything, He kept his trust and faith in God. And « the Lord has given twice as much as he had before » (Job 42:10).
When David lost the child he had with bathsheba, he stopped pleading and started worshipping God because he trusted in the mercy of God. Later, God blesses David and bathsheba with another son named Solomon, who became king the wisest and the richest that the world has ever known.
Today, it is to us that God promises to restore double for our trouble – « Even today, I declare that I will restore double to you. »
As He had said that, He will do it!
Let’s keep our trust and our faith in God and expect double of everything we have lost.
This verse calls us « prisoners of hope ».
It is precisely because we must remain full of hope that God holds for us a lot of good things.
Then, in the time of hardship, we do not have to worry about. We have to worship instead of God like David and Job did, and to consider these moments as an opportunity for God to grant us more than what we had before.
PRAYER:
Lord our God, strengthen in us the confidence and the faith in your mercy.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray.
Amen.
