Bible Text: Zechariah 5-6 | Teacher: Pastor Brian Nevins | Series: Chronological History of Israel | The Chronological History of Israel and Judah Series – Number 138. Zechariah continues to encourage those who are discouraged in their work for the Lord. That includes not only pointing them to the Lord and coming Messiah, but away from the things that distract. When is ‘commerce’ bad? When it takes our hearts away from God, leads us to lie and cheat, for the sake of obtaining ‘more’. But what we have in our hand means nothing to the Lord, only what is in our hearts, minds and souls.
