Lord, I’m pondering the significance of the fact that You removed the iniquity of the world in a single day. The impact of that continues forever. I’m awed by the gravity and the beauty at the same time. I humbly bring my thanks in your precious name, Lord Jesus, according to the good and perfect will of the Father. Amen.

“And the angel of the Lord solemnly assured Joshua, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: If you will walk in my ways and keep my charge, then you shall rule my house and have charge of my courts, and I will give you the right of access among those who are standing here. Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who sit before you, for they are men who are a sign: behold, I will bring my servant the Branch. For behold, on the stone that I have set before Joshua, on a single stone with seven eyes, I will engrave its inscription, declares the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of this land in a single day. In that day, declares the Lord of hosts, every one of you will invite his neighbor to come under his vine and under his fig tree.’”(Zechariah 3: 6-10 ESV)
