Through Zechariah, God calls His people to repentance, assuring them that His mercy restores and His presence never departs. He reminds them that even when the work feels impossible, God lifts the burden of sin, works through His Spirit, and calls His people to move forward with courage, trusting Him to accomplish what we cannot.

Reflect
In what areas of life does the work God has called you to feel impossible? Ask Him to give you bold faith to step forward, trusting Him to accomplish what you cannot.
O Lord, the work You have assigned to Your servants can only be achieved by Your grace and the supernatural enabling of your Holy Spirit. You alone can deal with the immense obstacles that lie before us. Come, Holy Spirit, anoint our lives and efforts here on earth. May Your church be built by Your divine power working in and through Your people. —Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth1
