Restored - Free to Please God

Have you ever felt like you’ve fallen short because couldn’t accomplish something on your own?

This is exactly how Joshua, the high priest, felt in the Zechariah’s dream. Joshua stands in God’s court, guilty in filthy rags before God himself, Satan, and others. Joshua knows his guilt and is aware of his inability to atone for his own sin.

But God has a plan. He provides a perfect high priest for Joshua (and us) to atone our sins and bridge the gap between God and His people. Let’s dive in and examine Zechariah’s dream, piece by piece.
