START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Zechariah 12:10-14
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. 11 In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon. 12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart; 13 The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart; 14 All the families that remain, every family apart, and their wives apart.
A SPIRIT OF GRACE – THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM / ZECHARIAH 12:10-14
A SPIRIT OF GRACE
Facing the threat of being completely destroyed and eliminated in the last days, individual Jews will turn to God for help and mercy. Many will come to realize that Jesus is the true Messiah and be overwhelmed by all He has done for them throughout history.
THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM
With enemy forces closing in on them, the people of Israel will cry out to God for help. The Lord will respond by sending His Holy Spirit with special grace (undeserved favor and mercy). He will bring an answer to their desperate prayers and open their eyes to the fact that Jesus is indeed their promised Messiah – their Savior and Deliverer – who has been waiting to rescue them. As a result, they will entrust themselves to God.
- The people then will recognize their guilt and responsibility in the events that led to Jesus’ death (including the Roman swordsman that pierced Jesus’ side, Psalms 22:16; Isaiah 53:5; John 19:34).
As a result, they will be overwhelmed with grief and mourn bitterly over how they rejected Christ for so long. Each individual will feel the weight of sorrow and will have to repent personally for his or her sin and rejection of Jesus Christ (Romans 2:23; 6:23; Acts 16:31; 1 Peter 2:24).
