What a Comfort!

 

What a Comfort!

Here I can only but transliterate from the French Bible into English.  The French Bible says it so well:  (Zechariah 2:12)

“Whoever attacks you will attack what is most precious to me”.  This is the literal translation of what it says in the French Bible.

I thought that personally it was so comforting to that whoever messes up with me will have to face my heavenly Father.

In the context he talks about the nations and Israel, but Israel is God’s people as I am as well.

In this verse I put myself in the place of Israel and the opponents are the nations.

You can also find comfort in this that as a God’s child you are protected like Israel and you are the apple of his eye, the very target of his concern.  It’s only when we see our position with God through the eye of faith that we can appreciate his Presence in our lives.

God ahead you can do that appropriately with some of the promises made to God’s people.

Also, God promises that the nations will be robbed by the ones who serve them.

We are to rejoice because God will be in our midst.  His very Presence with us should always be an occasion for celebration.  What would we be or do without Him.  Don’t ever think you can fight on your own.  Prayer is still the most powerful weapon around.

Even in Psalm 23, it says that he set up a table in the presence of my enemies.  That’s a feast!  You can relax and rejoice because everything will be alright.  He wants to be your comfort and he does not want you to put your enemies above him.  The only one you ought to please is him and not the member of your own family.
