Reading Ezekiel
March 7, 2023
Reading through Scripture, I find some instruction direct and relevant. And God provides insights. Reading Ezekiel is not always uplifting. I’m concerned about the direction of our country. And God’s people in Ezekiel seemed ‘far away.’
Then a phrase popped out. “ That you may know that I am your Lord.” The people were different, the ways they defied God different, but like our nation today, they were ignoring God’s directives, rejecting His direction. The result would be doom.
I’ve focused my prayers for our nation on Ezekiel’s repeated admonition that we may know that God is our God. Days are dark when we idolize wealth and power, and elevate self, with pride on the throne of our lives. Denying justice to the weak, and stealing.
God will judge.
Prayers much needed today.
