As we will soon read, tucked within a prophecy about one of Israel\u2019s neighboring nations being judged and punished, we discover a little bit of space being dedicated to pointing forward to the coming Messiah.<\/p>\r\n<p>With this said, let\u2019s read this prophecy, and unpack what we can learn from what is shared about the Messiah.<\/p>\r\n<p>Our passage and Old Testament prophecy are found in the book of Zechariah, chapter 9, and we will read using the New American Standard Bible. Starting in verse 1, Zechariah writes:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>1\u00a0<\/sup>The burden of the word of the Lord is against the land of Hadrach, with Damascus as its resting place (for the eyes of men, especially of all the tribes of Israel, are toward the Lord),<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>2\u00a0<\/sup>And Hamath also, which borders on it;<br>\r\nTyre and Sidon, though they are very wise.<br>\r\n<sup>3\u00a0<\/sup>For Tyre built herself a fortress<br>\r\nAnd piled up silver like dust,<br>\r\nAnd gold like the mire of the streets.<br>\r\n<sup>4\u00a0<\/sup>Behold, the Lord will dispossess her<br>\r\nAnd cast her wealth into the sea;<br>\r\nAnd she will be consumed with fire.<br>\r\n<sup>5\u00a0<\/sup>Ashkelon will see <em>it<\/em> and be afraid.<br>\r\nGaza too will writhe in great pain;<br>\r\nAlso Ekron, for her expectation has been confounded.<br>\r\nMoreover, the king will perish from Gaza,<br>\r\nAnd Ashkelon will not be inhabited.<br>\r\n<sup>6\u00a0<\/sup>And a mongrel race will dwell in Ashdod,<br>\r\nAnd I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.<br>\r\n<sup>7\u00a0<\/sup>And I will remove their blood from their mouth<br>\r\nAnd their detestable things from between their teeth.<br>\r\nThen they also will be a remnant for our God,<br>\r\nAnd be like a clan in Judah,<br>\r\nAnd Ekron like a Jebusite.<br>\r\n<sup>8\u00a0<\/sup>But I will camp around My house because of an army,<br>\r\nBecause of him who passes by and returns;<br>\r\nAnd no oppressor will pass over them anymore,<br>\r\nFor now I have seen with My eyes.<br>\r\n<sup>9\u00a0<\/sup>Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!<br>\r\nShout <em>in triumph<\/em>, O daughter of Jerusalem!<br>\r\nBehold, your king is coming to you;<br>\r\nHe is just and endowed with salvation,<br>\r\nHumble, and mounted on a donkey,<br>\r\nEven on a colt, the foal of a donkey.<br>\r\n<sup>10\u00a0<\/sup>I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim<br>\r\nAnd the horse from Jerusalem;<br>\r\nAnd the bow of war will be cut off.<br>\r\nAnd He will speak peace to the nations;<br>\r\nAnd His dominion will be from sea to sea,<br>\r\nAnd from the River to the ends of the earth.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In this set of verses, not only do we find a fascinating picture of Jerusalem\u2019s king riding into the city victorious on the back of a donkey, we also get a picture hinted at that God will ultimately purify and accept certain groups of gentiles that many people might think God wouldn\u2019t be interested in.<\/p>\r\n<p>Primary among these newly accepted groups is the Philistines. There is no shortage of stories in the Old Testament where the Philistines show up and oppose Israel and Judah, appearing first within the stories of Abraham, and moving forward from prior to Israel even entering the promised land, through the judges and the united kingdom, up until the exile and Babylon conquering all of the nations in the region. As I say this, I don\u2019t recall the Philistines showing up in a significant way after this point, but throughout Israelite history prior to Babylon, we find many places where this nation appears.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is interesting in my mind that immediately after describing how God will purify the Phillistines and make them like one of the clans of Judah, we find God promising protection and pointing forward to a powerful symbol of the King of His kingdom riding into His city on a young donkey.<\/p>\r\n<p>Moving forward into the New Testament, one of the most well documented events in Jesus\u2019 life is His entrance into Jerusalem on the back of a young donkey at the start of the week leading forward to His crucifixion. One place this event is recorded is in Mark\u2019s gospel, chapter 11, which begins by saying:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong><sup>1\u00a0<\/sup>As they approached Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples, <sup>2\u00a0<\/sup>and said to them, \u201cGo into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find a colt tied <em>there<\/em>, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it <em>here<\/em>. <sup>3\u00a0<\/sup>If anyone says to you, \u2018Why are you doing this?\u2019 you say, \u2018The Lord has need of it\u2019; and immediately he will send it back here.\u201d <sup>4\u00a0<\/sup>They went away and found a colt tied at the door, outside in the street; and they untied it. <sup>5\u00a0<\/sup>Some of the bystanders were saying to them, \u201cWhat are you doing, untying the colt?\u201d <sup>6\u00a0<\/sup>They spoke to them just as Jesus had told <em>them<\/em>, and they gave them permission. <sup>7\u00a0<\/sup>They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it; and He sat on it. <sup>8\u00a0<\/sup>And many spread their coats in the road, and others <em>spread<\/em> leafy branches which they had cut from the fields. <sup>9\u00a0<\/sup>Those who went in front and those who followed were shouting:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>\u201cHosanna!<br>\r\nBlessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord;<br>\r\n<sup>10\u00a0<\/sup>Blessed <em>is<\/em> the coming kingdom of our father David;<br>\r\nHosanna in the highest!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>In this amazing event, Jesus directs His disciples to go and borrow a young colt for Him to ride on. In a somewhat random thought I just had, if there were no bystanders present to confront the disciples taking the colt, what happened would have looked no different from a theft. It is also interesting in my mind that nothing in these disciples\u2019 instructions to the owners of this colt is any mention that Jesus would be the one using it.<\/p>\r\n<p>I don\u2019t know if the owner of this colt, or the group of bystanders present, would have been sympathetic towards Jesus\u2019 plans to ride on this young donkey. In this slightly cryptic set of instructions, Jesus basically tells the disciples to say that God needs to borrow the animal, and when God was finished, He would return it to the owner.<\/p>\r\n<p>Not only was Jesus\u2019 instructions to His disciples a small-scale prophecy, that was fulfilled when they went to borrow the colt, but the colt they ultimately borrowed was one specially set aside in the story of eternity as being the one designated to hold the King of the universe.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is also amazing in my mind to take one more step back when looking at the fulfillment of this prophecy to realize that when Jesus made the way of salvation open to humanity, the way was made open not just for God\u2019s people in an exclusive sense, but the way was made open for people from every nation to be invited into and adopted into God\u2019s family. On the surface, of Israel\u2019s neighboring nations, God makes the promise that He is willing to forgive, purify, and adopt the nation best known for being against His people.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Forgiveness is a key piece of God\u2019s character, and we can take this prophecy as a promise that even though our past is filled with the stains of sin, mistakes, and regret, God is more than willing to adopt us into His family, and He is willing to purify us and make us one of His children. God loves you and He loves me, and Jesus made possible the way for God to show His love for each of us through what Jesus accomplished on the cross.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p>As we come to the end of another podcast episode, here are the challenges I will leave you with:<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>As I always open by challenging you, intentionally seek God first in your life and place your faith, hope, trust, and belief in Jesus. Thank Jesus for what He made possible through His death and humbly come before God asking for His help cleaning and purifying your life as He is willing to adopt you into His family.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Also, continue to pray and study the Bible for yourself to discover just how much God loves each of us. Discover in the pages of the Bible a God who is more in love with you than you might first realize, and a God who is more interested in redeeming you than you might be interested in being redeemed.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>And as I end every set of challenges by saying in one way or another, never stop short of, back away from, chicken out of, or deviate away from where God wants to lead you to in your life with Him!<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div>\r\n<p>\r\nYear of Prophecy &#8211; Episode 22: Tucked within a seemingly unrelated prophecy about judging some of Israel&#8217;s neighboring nations, discover the powerful theme of being protected, purified, and adopted into God&#8217;s family, by a King the prophecy describes as riding on the colt of a donkey.\r\n<\/p><p><strong>Join the discussion.<\/strong> Share your thoughts on this passage.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-audio"],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
