In Revelation 11, we read about two figures who show up near the end of the world and prophesy about God in Jerusalem.

Revelation 11:3 says - "And I will grant authority to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth."

These mysterious two men are never named, and that’s resulted in 2000 years now of speculation as to their identities.

They demonstrate supernatural powers, such as the ability to call down fire from heaven, bringing plagues upon the earth, and they even die and rise again- and it’s all gonna be on TikTok. The whole world is going to be clued in on what these guys are doing and saying.

But who are they? Let’s study and speculate about these two superstuds of the end times - today on the God and His Prophets podcast.

If you’re looking for a Bible study podcast that goes deep into the major and minor prophets, God and His Prophets offers a verse by verse Bible study through these powerful Old Testament writings. Each episode explores the prophecy in the Bible, from the Book of Ezekiel study and later in Zechariah, helping listeners in understanding prophetic books and seeing their relevance today. We also connect the prophets’ words to end times Bible teaching and highlight connections to Revelation, giving you a Christian Bible commentary that equips you for spiritual insight and growth.

In this episode of God and His Prophets, we walk verse-by-verse through Zechariah 4, the fifth of Zechariah’s night visions. At the center of the vision stands a golden lampstand fed by two olive trees—an image packed with meaning about the Holy Spirit’s power, God’s faithfulness, and how His work is accomplished.

This chapter delivers one of Scripture’s most quoted truths:

“Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts.”

The vision was given to Zerubbabel, the governor charged with rebuilding Jerusalem after the exile, at a time when the task felt overwhelming and progress painfully slow. God’s message is clear: the work will be finished—not through human effort or strength—but through divine empowerment.

Along the way, we explore discouragement, small beginnings, perseverance, and how God supplies exactly what His servants need to complete the work He assigns.

(This is a sermon I preached earlier this year at First Assembly of God in Carl Junction)

There is so much to pick apart in Balaam’s story. There are a lot more strange things going on than just a talking donkey.

For example, in the first chapter where Balaam appears, he does exactly what God says, and then it says that God wanted to kill him for it.

Some men approached Balaam and asked him to curse the Israelites for them, and here’s what it said:

Numbers 22:20-22

20 And God came to Balaam at night and said to him, “If the men have come to call you, rise, go with them; but only do what I tell you.” 21 So Balaam rose in the morning and saddled his donkey and went with the princes of Moab.

So far so good, right? God says go. Balaam goes.

22 But God's anger was kindled because he went, and the angel of the Lord took his stand in the way as his adversary.

It will even say later that this angel of the Lord was standing there to literally kill Balaam! But why- wasn’t Balaam doing exactly what God wanted? That’s the question we’re going to analyze in this message.
