Zechariah 4:6-7…”This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit’ Says the Lord of hosts. ‘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!”
Yesterday we looked at making a sacrifice of praise, believing God for deliverance from our situation. Today we’re looking at God’s grace and how powerful it is, by the power of the Holy Spirit, in defeating our mountains that try to overwhelm us.
Zerubbabel and his men were rebuilding the temple of God, they had the foundations laid and were already offering sacrifices on the alter as instructed. Then the people of the land tried to discourage them, and troubled them as they went about their work. They even wrote letters to the authorities to try to stop them and it’s then we see God speak into their situation.
We’ve all had times when people have discouraged us, when they’ve given us trouble but here God tells us what to do about it.
He tells him to shout at his mountain and what is it he is to shout? It’s “Grace! Grace!” God says the same thing to us today. Whatever our situation, whatever our mountain we too can shout ‘Grace, Grace!’ to it because we have the grace of God through the Lord Jesus over our whole lives. We’ve been saved by grace through faith now we can put it to work in our practical everyday situations.
God’s grace is His undeserved favour on our lives and even if we don’t deserve for the mountain to be removed that’s what grace is all about. We all qualify for it as we’re all undeserving, and it’s all the goodness of God.😊
So whatever you’re dealing with, call on the grace, the favour of God today, shout “Grace, Grace!” to it and believe the Holy Spirit will move on your behalf to change things in Jesus’ name. Amen.
