Nothing can stop God’s plans.
The Holy Spirit anoints the Christian equipping him to achieve God’s plan on this earth. Zechariah 4: 8-9 “The word of the Lord came to me, saying, Zerubbabel’s hands will lay the foundation of this house, and his hands will finish it; and you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.”
As we can see the prophet who is declaring this word is Zechariah who speaks by the Holy Spirit, he has been anointed to prophesy; and the one who is going to lay the foundations of the house of God and is going to rebuild it until it is finished is Zerubbabel.
Here we are seeing two servants, Zechariah and Zerubbabel, anointed by the Holy Spirit to fulfill the various purposes of the Lord on this earth; one is a prophet, and the other will be governor and builder of the house of God. The Spirit of God anoints us and enables us to achieve the divine plans on this earth.
Zechariah 4:10 “For those who despised the day of small things will rejoice, and they will see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand. These seven are the eyes of the Lord, which cover the whole earth”, exposes three phrases on which we must reflect:
“Those who despised the little things will rejoice”, that is, when due to adversity doubt and discouragement have come, and we have despised the little things, in his kindness God will make us understand his times and his work bringing new and wonderful Blessings.
“And they will see the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand”, the plumb line indicates: construction, reforms, changes. That is, the Lord will establish his design, his order and his model for the blessing of each one of his children. Although sometimes we do not understand God’s changes, it is necessary to trust in his love, power and care. He knows exactly what he is doing.
“These seven are the eyes of Jehovah, which cover the whole earth”, an expression that speaks to us of the omniscience and omnipresence of God, he is in all the earth and sees everything. He knows the deepest in the hearts of men and his church, nothing escapes his will and sovereignty.
It is essential to trust in the power and care of the Lord, because nothing escapes his power and government. Do not allow worry and anxiety to rule your heart, do not admit discouragement as the ruler of your life, seek God and hold on to his promises, he is the one who renews you and strengthens you to overcome.
