Let’s read Ezekiel 26:15-21, Ezekiel 27, 28, 2 Kings 25:3-7, Jeremiah 52:6-11, Jeremiah 39:2-10 today. Here we go!
“God, the Master, says, ‘When I gather Israel from the peoples among whom they’ve been scattered and put my holiness on display among them with all the nations looking on, then they’ll live in their own land that I gave to my servant Jacob. They’ll live there in safety. They’ll build houses. They’ll plant vineyards, living in safety. Meanwhile, I’ll bring judgment on all the neighbors who have treated them with such contempt. And they’ll realize that I am God.’ ” Ezekiel 28:25-26 MSG
And there it is, the restoration, praise the Lord. It was always there, always in the Lord’s heart toward us. Once we can accept that restoration is the Lord’s desire, we need to develop trust between our seeking and the Lord’s revealing, between the unknowing and the knowing.
Thank You Lord!
In Ezekiel 27 it reads “ your oarsmen have rowed you into stormy waters” and then further it reads “the oarsmen have abandoned the ship”. It makes you think doesn’t it that if you surround yourself with the folks who have knowledge and understanding of the word, the waters you travel may still be rough but the oarsmen you are with won’t abandon the ship or you leaving you to sink or steer on your own. That is today’s take-away!
