The most familiar words from the book of Zechariah come in his fifth vision, in Chapter 4. Zechariah sees a menorah flanked by two olive trees, and receives three promises from God to deliver to the people. These promises, depicted poignantly through prophetic imagery, should fill God's people with comfort and hope to carry on the work of his Kingdom, knowing that his Spirit will empower us for the task, and that he will faithfully bring his purposes to fruition.
