I read Ezekiel 19 yesterday.
I read Ezekiel 20-21 today.
20:6 - a land I had searched out for them...the most beautiful of lands. - I thought it was neat that God explained that He was the One who would search out a land for them. We get so busy trying to finding our own land (whether for a church physically or our place in the world) and yet God has promised to find the perfect place for us if we will simply follow Him and let Him do the searching.
20:11 - God explains that His decrees will bring life if people will obey them.
20:37 - I will take note of you as you pass under my rod, and I will bring you into the bond of covenant. - I just love the sound of this verse. You have God saying He will act as the Good Shepherd who carefully watches for His own and then takes good care of them. I get the picture of a shepherd who is making sure to get every one of his sheep because he knows he will take good care of them and he loves them. He separates them from the others because the others will be treated harshly.
21:27 - A prophecy about Jesus.
Love, Michael
I want to recommend a tremendous book to anyone who ever gets on this blogspot. Whether you are someone who is faithfully Christian or you are someone who doesn't go to church "because of all the hypocrites" or you are someone in between, I want to recommend you pick up a copy of the book "Prodigal God" by Timothy Keller. It could forever change your faith, your soul and the passion and purpose with which you live.
