🔥 Zechariah 14
Zechariah 14 opens with these words: “Behold, a day of Yahweh comes, when your plunder will be divided within you.” The line to keep is Zechariah 14:6: “It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.” Carry the word “happen” from that verse into the rest of the day.
Zechariah 14 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “Behold, a day of Yahweh comes, when your plunder will be divided within you.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.
Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “Men will dwell therein, and there will be no more curse; but Jerusalem will dwell safely.” Zechariah 14 opens with these words: “Behold, a day of Yahweh comes, when your plunder will be divided within you.” The line to keep is Zechariah 14:6: “It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.” Carry the word “happen” from that verse into the rest of the day.
The line worth learning out loud is Zechariah 14:6: “It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.
What happens first in Zechariah 14? Then try this: Read “It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
“It will happen in that day, that there will not be light, cold, or frost.”
