* vs 1-2 - Jerusalem’s walls had been broken down and God gave Zach a vision of an angel measuring the length and width of Jerusalem.

* This was showing ownership.

* In real estate we measure the houses we buy - this shows ownership.

* This discovers whether or not the house “measures up” to the specifications it’s supposed to.

* vs 3-5 - God was not going to build a physical wall but a spiritual one.

* This wall showed protection.

* God was essentially saying, “Jerusalem is mine and I will protect it.”

* We can apply this to our own lives.

* Walls represent security.

* We don’t need to find our security in anything other than God.

* We are His and He will provide for and protect us.
