For those of you praying for yourself, family members and friends. You have touched the heart of God.

I saw a wall of protection around each person and around entire families. It is a wall of Fire and it is His Glory. You will not need natural walls for God Himself will be your protection.

God will make His glory conspicuous by the mighty deeds He will do for His people and the providential care with which He will take of you. His Glory shall be seen upon you and known to be dwelling within you by His Spirit. He shall reveal His presence like a pillar of Fire around you and His Shekinah Glory shall encircle you as a rampart.

The Son of God shall be your protection, not only defending you from attack, but consuming the enemy who may presume to assault you. Fear not, Beloved! Jesus is your Prince and your Protector. A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing!

‘For I,’ declares the LORD, ‘will be a wall of fire around her, and I will be the Glory in her midst,'” Zechariah 2:5 NASB

‘I myself will be an encircling rampart of fire,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will be the Glory in her midst,'” Zechariah 2:5 NIV.

Rampart: barricade, bastion, bulwark, defense, fort, protection, security.

Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary:
God will be a Wall of fire around God’s chosen people, which can neither be broken through nor undermined, nor can it be assailed without danger to those who attack. This vision was to have its full accomplishment in the gospel church, which is extended by admitting the Gentiles into it; and which has the Son of God for its Prince and Protector; especially in the glorious times yet to come.

Pulpit Commentary: Verse 5.
A wall of fire. She will not need walls. God will be her protection, not only defending her from attack, but consuming the enemy who may presume to assault her (compare Deuteronomy 4:24; Psalm 68:2). God will make His glory conspicuous by the mighty deeds He will do for His people and the providential care He will take of her. He shall be known to be dwelling there, as He revealed His presence by the pillar of fire and the Shekinah (compare Isaiah 60:1,2,19).
