If you recall, we've been kind of breaking down the book of Zachariah into three main sections.

The first section was speaking of, you know, the eight visions of Zachariah, dreams, visions, all in one night,

having to do with Israel, you know, in its future, and the ending on the millennial kingdom.

And that was chapters one through 6. Section 2 talks about, you know, these questions the people

raise. Remember, should we weep and fast and mourn as we've done all these years?

And they ask the Lord some questions in chapter 7 and 8. But chapters 9 through 14, the third

section, speak of both the first and second coming of Christ.

Now, if you just had the book of Zachariah to go on, it might be hard to discern which one

would be first and which one would be second, or even if there were a first and second coming.

But when you know the way the story shakes out, it really makes Zachariah come to life. So we have the

advantage of, you know, hindsight looking back to Zachariah and seeing how he did speak of both

the first advent and the second advent, which is pretty fun, and it helps us understand that.

So here at Zachariah 10, starting, you know, with God's divine influence and his work on the people of Israel,

he's going to really reach into their lives personally and practically and spark, you know,

they speak about their spiritual health and well-being, along with their physical health and well-being.

And there's kind of a crossing over of the figurative and the literal.

And we'll see that in these sections.

There's seven little sections within chapter 10.

If you're a note-taker, you can jot down these seven sections.

The first section is verse one.

We're going to call this a divine rain. Check it out.

Zachariah 10, verse 1. It says, ask ye of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain.
