What does it say?
God promised to restore His people, renew their land, and establish His promised kingdom on Earth.
What does it mean?
The last days will be a new beginning for Israel. The godly Jewish remnant and converted Gentiles will recognize the Lord as the one true God and serve Him together. All pride, deceit, and fear will be removed from God’s people. Their physical and spiritual restoration will cause the world to recognize Israel’s God as Lord of the earth. The Jewish people will finally return to a peaceful and prosperous Jerusalem, rejoicing in God’s faithfulness despite their rebellious tendencies.
How should I respond?
The last chapter of Zephaniah should give us hope. God never gives up on His children. Your faithfulness to God may vary at different times in your life, but if you know Christ as your Savior, He will never fail you. Are you part of God’s believing, faithful remnant? Then be faithful until He returns. Even a small group of people devoted to the Lord can make a difference in times of moral and spiritual decay. You can choose to be light in a spiritually dark world. What difference will you make for Christ today?
Scripture
About this Plan
Prophesying during the reign of King Josiah, Zephaniah’s ministry concerned the sinfulness of Judah and her neighbors. Zephaniah prophesied about a coming “day of the Lord,” when God will pour out His wrath on those who persist in their wickedness. Zephaniah reminds us that although the coming judgment of the Lord is severe, God stands ready to save those who trust in Him.
