Zechariah 14:9
And the Lord shall be King over all the earth.
In that day it shall be—
“The Lord is one,”
And His name one.

Application: 

God will transform the entire environment and topography of Jerusalem (14:6-8, 10-11). King Jesus will reign over the whole earth from that place (14:9). Those who warred against Jerusalem and the Messiah will suffer a plague of judgment (14:12), but all the survivors from the nations will come to Jerusalem to worship the King who will reign with prominence and dominance (14:16). 

They will celebrate the Festival of Shelters, and if any nation refuses to participate, God will withhold rain from them (14:16-19). Though there may be some rebellion in the messianic kingdom before the eternal state begins, the overall nature of the kingdom will be the exaltation of the Lord. Any open rebellion against the Messiah will be quickly crushed because he will rule with an iron rod.

14:20-21 In that day, everything will be sacred, and the entire earth will be filled with the holiness of the Lord. This knowledge of God’s glorious future for His people should inspire believers of all ages to persevere and obey. Let us joyfully worship the One who will bring history to its divinely ordained conclusion.
