START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) Zechariah 1:8-11
I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees that were in the bottom; and behind him were there red horses, speckled, and white.9 Then said I, O my lord, what are these? And the angel that talked with me said unto me, I will shew thee what these be. 10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, These are they whom the Lord hath sent to walk to and fro through the earth. 11 And they answered the angel of the Lord that stood among the myrtle trees, and said, We have walked to and fro through the earth, and, behold, all the earth sitteth still, and is at rest.
I HAD A VISION / ZECHARIAH 1:8-11
A vision is different from a dream. When a person dreams, he is asleep; when a person has a vision, he is awake. Therefore, Zechariah probably was full awake when he saw these images. In February of 519 B.C. God gave Zechariah a vision of a man on a red horse in a grove of myrtle trees, with various other horses behind him. Some believe this was an appearance of Christ as “the angel of the LORD” (Zechariah 1:11-12). A different angel interpreted the vision by explaining that these horses had observed the whole world and found it at rest and in peace (Zechariah 1:11); yet God’s people in Judah were still oppressed and insecure. The Lord would change the world situation by restoring security to His people and prospering Jerusalem and the towns of Judah (Zechariah 1:17).
