Zechariah 2:5 For I, said the LORD, will be to her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the middle of her. In one of the great cities of the Continent the regalia are not kept behind iron bars as in the Tower of London, but lie upon an open table. It might appear that any ruthless hand could wrench any jewel or diamond from the glittering array; and yet no man dare put out his hand to take one, because that table is charged with a strong current of electricity. You cannot see the protection, but there it is. And so if a man will only live in daily and hourly communion with Christ, the devil can no more touch him than a thief can touch those jewels. (F. B. Meyer.) Parallel Verses KJV: For I, saith the LORD, will be unto her a wall of fire round about, and will be the glory in the midst of her. |
