Our Gentle, Jealous God

Zechariah 1:7-21

God is always watching me. His patrols are watching.

I cannot hide from Him.

God is jealous for my affection, attention, worship, time, devotion, obsession. He wants all my worship.

And He is gentle. He speaks to me with gracious words, comforting words.

He is angry with those who are at ease. Who are lazy. They “further the disaster.”

God is a warrior on my behalf. He “terrifies” my enemies/demons who have scattered me with distractions and idolatry for years.

God sees my suffering. He says His angels are fighting for me.

May God heal us. Guide us. Free us.
