Zechariah
Vision (no 4) of what will happen when Jesus comes and will cleanse of our sins
God is going to rescue Jerusalem out of the mess.
Joshua then has to live in accordance with God - provides a reminder of the deal - God resuces the city but Joshua has to do his side of the deal
For us to take away
Provides a reminder that what happened with Jesus was prophesisied in the OT
God says no to Satan and we need to stand in the authority he has given us
Our sins are forgiven - and we need to continue to come before God and ask for forgiveness. Live in the freedom of Christ.
Any ideas on the stone with 7 sides/eyes or the branch as that baffled me? Also why Joshua?

Things to take out of this passage:
- Fourth Vision: - Joshua's dirty clothes are replaced with priestly clothes. This is a symbol of what Jesus does when He forgives our sins. He removes our sinful clothes and gives us clothes of His own status!
- Joshua has to obey God tho for God to use Him.
Things to put into practice:
- We need to first ask for forgiveness before asking for God to show us what He wants us to do. We must be wearing the right clothes before we can do the right job.
