  The Scattered Horns 📖 Scripture: Zechariah 1:18-21 “Then I looked up, and there before me were four horns. I asked the angel who was speaking to me, ‘What are these?’ He answered me, ‘These are the horns that scattered Judah, Israel and Jerusalem.’” 🌿 Introduction — The Lord Who Protects His People In the vision given to Zechariah, four horns rose up to scatter God’s people and destroy their spiritual strength.
