DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2012
THE PLUMMET IN THE HAND OF CHRIST JESUS
The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.
For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth. Zechariah 4:9,10
Has God laid the foundation of your life? He will finsh it. For Christ, the masterbuilder, has the perfect design and purpose for you...he also has a plummet in his hand. A plummet is used by builders to make sure the building is being constructed in an upright manner. This is why we must be in Christ and Christ must be in us. It is Christ who will bring God's will to fruition, and it is Christ who will ensure that our ways are the ways of God. As we walk in Christ, and God's will is accomplished in us, we will say: "Grace, grace unto it" ( see Zechariah 4:7). We will know that it was not by our might or power, but by the Spirit of our LORD.
Today, Christ in you, the hope of glory!
