Shout Grace before those mountains.

Zechariah 4:6-7 says;

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, this is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. Who art thou, o great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

Zechariah had prophetic words for Zerubbabel, who at that time was tasked with rebuilding the ruin temple of God in Jerusalem. The work was daunting and frankly, they were not making significant progress. In fact, the work was almost abandoned because the natural abilities of men couldn't pull this off. Therefore, God had to step into the situation by sending his servant with the following words "Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it"

The work was great, the builders were demoralised and exhausted. But the Word of God carries with it the abilities of God. So, the Lord commanded Zechariah to tell Zerubbabel to speak to the mountain of obstacles before them, saying 'what are you, O great mountain, you shall become a plain'. He goes on to instruct him to shout 'grace, grace unto it'. When mountains of debt are before you, do you shout 'grace, grace' or do you talk about the debt? When confronted by a seemingly insurmountable obstacle, do you shout 'grace, grace' or are you despondent?

Today, rather than cry about your situation, why don't you get inspired by this message and shout 'grace, grace to the face(s) of your challenges. It's over to you friend!

Bible study: Ezra 6-8; John 21.
