The command to build God’s house.&nbsp;The stalling, the preaching, the repenting, the stirring. The coming glory of God’s house. A promised blessing. And, the tribulation saints sing the song of Moses, before the bowls of God’s wrath are poured out.

253 - Haggai 1-2 and Revelation 15

A call to repentance. A vision of horses. A vision of horns. A vision of the measuring line. A vision of Joshua, standing before God with Satan accusing and the Lord defending. And, the bowls of God’s wrath begin to overflow. &nbsp;

254 - Zechariah 1-3 and Revelation 16

A vision of lampstands and olive trees.&nbsp;A vision of a flying scroll. A vision of a woman in a basket. A vision of four chariots. The command to crown Joshua. And, John sees a scarlet woman riding a scarlet beast.

255 - Zechariah 4-6 and Revelation 17

Obedience versus fasting.&nbsp;Disobedience connected to captivity. The future of the holy city of Jerusalem. Israel defended against her enemies. The coming King, saving His people. And, the future fall of Mystery Babylon.

256 - Zechariah 7-9 and Revelation 18

The Restoration of Judah and Israel.&nbsp;The desolation of Israel. The Prophecy of the Shepherds. The coming deliverance of Judah. Mourning for the One who was pierced. And, Christ comes back riding a white horse.

257- Zechariah 10-12 and Revelation 19

Idolatry will one day be cut off, when the Shepherd Savior comes again. After, the great and terrible day of the Lord. Then, all the nations, will travel up to Jerusalem to worship the one true king in what we commonly call the Millennial Kingdom.

258- Zechariah 13-14 and Revelation 20

Israel is beloved of God. Although they offered polluted offerings. Although they had corrupted priests. Although they were filled with treachery and infidelity. Fortunately, one day, God will make all things new, new heavens and a new earth.

259 - Malachi 1-2 and Revelation 21

The coming messenger.&nbsp;A rebuke about robbing God. God’s people complain. A book of remembrance. The Great Day of God. The River of Life. A reminder that the time is near. Wonder and warning from the One who is coming quickly.

260 - Malachi 3-4 and Revelation 22

What does it look like to live by faith? The answer to that question will help us understand what the writer of Hebrews meant when he wrote, “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1)

Understanding this question begins just before and just after Hebrews 11. When we consider the context of this chapter (often referred to as the Hall of Faith), we gain a better understanding of what it means for the just to walk by faith.  
What we find just before Hebrews 11 is an encouragement to not “cast away your confidence…” (Hebrews 10:35) followed by an exhortation to endure and believe (10:36-39). Likewise, just after Hebrews 11, we are encouraged to “run with endurance the race that is set before us…” (Hebrews 12:1)

And in Hebrews 11, we read of men and women who clung to their confidence in the Lord and ran the race in the faith they received as a gift. Running as we should run—looking to Jesus and living in faith and by faith. Their examples of endurance give us encouragement as we “press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3:14)Listen to the audio of our study as we explore what living by faith looks like.
