11-30-06 Zechariah 10:10

Zechariah 10:10 (KJ21)
I will bring them back also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon, and a place shall not be found for them.

Zechariah 10:10 (NAS)
I will bring them back from the land of Egypt, And gather them from Assyria; And I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon, Until no room can be found for them.

Zechariah 10:10 (NIVUS)
I will bring them back from Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to Gilead and Lebanon, and there will not be room enough for them.

Zechariah 10:10 (NLT)
I will bring them back from Egypt and Assyria and resettle them in Gilead and Lebanon. There won’t be enough room for them all!





The children of Israel were slaves in the land of Egypt for over 400 years. Initially, after discovering his son Joseph in Egypt, Jacob moved his family there during a time of famine. Although it seemed like a good decision at the time, that move put Israel in the place to eventually be overcome and enslaved.

Perhaps you have made decisions that appeared good and wise at the time; however, you soon found yourself hemmed in and besieged. Distressing limits were placed on you and you could not break through the enemy's defenses. You were held fast in a tower with no apparent way or means to escape. You were cramped and confined. Your foes seemed to succeed and be blessed, while you languished in prison.

But then Adonai, the Lord God, moved into your situation and circumstances. He broke your bonds and brought you out of the enemy's territory. You were delivered and on your way home again, rejoicing. Not only were you rescued, but the Lord also recompensed, refreshed, and restored you. All the evil curses that came against you were reversed. You were gathered again into God's loving presence.

Now you find yourself in a land of abundance, where there are heaps of precious stones and springs of water. You are a prince and your testimony is that you are standing upright before Almighty God. He has set you on a high mountain, where you are safe and secure, for you have found your way into the center of God's heart. A land of fountains, mines, and meadows is yours; you have more than enough, for the Lord has saved and delivered you.
