Zerubbabel???

Zerubbabel is not the most famous of Israel's leaders. He led the forst group back from Babylon to begin rebuilding the temple. He did a great job at first, but then the opposition came. A certain group of men tricked the new king into issuing a decree halting building on the temple. A certain verse of Scripture spoke to my heart. "Then the prophets, Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied unto the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, even unto them. Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Sheltial and Jeshua the son of Jozedak and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem: and with them were the prophets of God helping them" Ezra 5:1-2
What would our world be like if we allowed ourselves to so clearly hear the Word of God. We hear it in every sermon, every time we read our Scriptures, and every time we stop and pray. What are we doing with it?
Two verses come to mind: "To him that knoweth what is right and doeth it not, to him it is sin" and "For if any be a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass. For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was".
Let's be doers, no, extreme lovers of the Word of God. Let's allow our hearts and attitudes to be moved as quickly as Zerubbabel.
