Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem






The Book Of Zechariah
Chapter 4

Vision of the Lampstand and Olive Trees

1. Now the angel who talked with me came back and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
2. And he said to me, “What do you see?” So I said, “I am looking, and there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps.
3. Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left.”
4. So I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”
5. Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?”

And I said, “No, my lord.”

6. So he answered and said to me:

“ This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel:

‘ Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’
Says the LORD of hosts.
7. ‘ Who are you, O great mountain?
Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain!
And he shall bring forth the capstone
With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!”’”

8. Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying:
9. “ The hands of Zerubbabel
Have laid the foundation of this temple;[a]
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.”

11. Then I answered and said to him, “What are these two olive trees—at the right of the lampstand and at its left?”
12. And I further answered and said to him, “What are these two olive branches that drip into the receptacles[b] of the two gold pipes from which the golden oil drains?”

13. Then he answered me and said, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.”

14. So he said, “These are the two anointed ones, who stand beside the Lord of the whole earth.”

Symbolism is known to God only. We have some ideas about it; but it is man's ideas. We know God is the creator, the cause, and the center of all Scripture, and all that is ...!!! His thoughts are so far above our thoughts, and his ways beyond knowing or understanding. We but dimly see a part of his magnificence.

The candelabra represents the 7 spirits of God ... the two trees represents two peoples or Israel and the church, or Christ and the holy Spirit. It is impossible to know lest God gives us a revelation. We ponder the mystery and wonder at the greatness of our LORD!

Dear Lord help us to know what thou are ready to reveal to those that love and seek to know and obey thy Word. We may learn this over the milleniumunem or forever as thou chooses. We thank thee for thy grace, goodness, and tender mercies and loving kindness. We are as babes before thee. Forgive us our transgressions and our poor choices, give us understanding and peace to know thee and be secure in they grace, day by day. May we please thee and learn of thee more and more. Thank thee for the multitude of blessing granted to us everyday, in Jesus name amen.

Father God we cry out for the peace of Israel, for the peace of Jerusalem, peace and protection for the persecuted believers, and for the peace and restoration of America,.. for the lost and for the enemies that know thee not. Thou can do anything, no thing is too hard for thee LORD. Have mercy on thy peoples. Help us to pass the testing that comes to us in this life, in Jesus name, amen.
