The amazing thing about all of the minor prophets is that they all point to Jesus. They all talk about the coming king who will restore after sin has been dealt with in God's people. I am currently going through a tough, tough season partly due to my own sin and lack of forgiveness. God had warned me, then he let the "armies of Babylon" come, and now I feel hope for the restoration of my life.. because of repentance and ultimately God's forgiveness. This can truly be an allegory for someone's life as well as the life of a nation. Praise God for this!

I can't go to sleep. It's almost 2am in the morning where I am.
I remember there's a Bible in my beside drawer. I haven't read the Bible for God knows how long. As I have my hand on the Bible I have a quick prayer just asking God that where I open up is something to show me.
I land exactly on the beginning of the Book of Zephaniah, so I read the whole thing, and wow...
If this isn't relevant to the time we're in right now.
Thank you God for always having your hand on me 🙏🙌

It is indeed true at this time of COVID-19, God is so loving of His children and want to give them peace and also anyone who truly repent.

As I read the book of Zephaniah I realized something was off when in the middle of the rule of a just king (Josiah) a prophet was proclaiming destruction and wrath from God. And my whole reading session was plagued by that question. Why? Then the Lord made me understand exactly what you guys said on this video. "It's the people!!" A righteous ruler can come, destroy idols and reestablish the Law of the Lord, but if the people aren't purified and judged individually, change won't truly come. Oh but it HAS come through JESUS CHRIST, He is gathering us, just like in Zephaniah 3, to glorify His name and show the world that He is gracious and glorious beyond any kind of human depravation.

I have been reading and studying the 12 minor prophets. I’m down to my last two books since I actually started with Malachi. I have been blown away by the parrales of God in the Old Testament and God during Covid 19. I’m struck by the fact that for generation after generation we see God protecting His “remnant” of people. May we be the people of 2 Chronicles 7:14 and find favor and protection in the eyesight of God. Thank you for such awesome videos! May God bless and protect you and your ministry.

Well done guys. Keep in mind everyone these summaries are great but still read and study your bibles and you too will have good insight into God's word. :-)

Zephaniah 3:17 he sings over us. Just like a loving father holding his child.

God bless the person who owns this channel as a child who doesn't understand the bible you help me a lot God must be so proud of you❤

God is truly love. The Israelites repeated their cycle of toxic idolatry and sin for centuries yet God remains just, merciful, and loving to the Israelites.

I watch their vids after reading each book in the Bible. They help me clarify things I did not understand. May God bless their work abundantly.
