Today’s
Feast
July 17,
2014-Ezekiel 3
A
Watchman For God
Please join with
us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying
and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. Gods Not
Dead!
“4 Jesus
answered, "It is written: 'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word
that comes from the mouth of God.' "” Matthew
4:4
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our
Feast by reading the book of Lamentations Chapter 3;
“The
preparation of the prophet for his work. (1-11) His office, as that
of a watchman. (12-2) The restraining and
restoring his speech. (22-27)
Verses
1-11 Ezekiel was to receive the truths of God as the food for his
soul, and to feed upon them by faith, and he would be strengthened… Christ
promises to strengthen him. He must continue earnest in preaching, whatever the
success might be.
Verses
12-21 This mission made the holy angels rejoice. All this was to
convince Ezekiel, that the God who sent him had power to bear him out in his
work... Surely then the hearers of the gospel should desire warnings, and even
reproofs.
Verses
22-27 Let us own ourselves for ever indebted to the mediation of Christ,
for the blessed intercourse between God and man; and a true believer will say, I
am never less alone than when thus alone. When the Lord opened Ezekiel's mouth,
he was to deliver his message boldly, to place life and death, the blessing and
the curse, before the people, and leave them to their choice.“ - Matthew Henry Concise.
We share the Word
of God (see
Deuteronomy 8:3) as food
for the soul.. A properly nourished soul
(see
Romans 10:17) brings
faith to fruition. The faith we have in God’s Word
(see
James 2:20)
serves
to produce good works.
Like
Ezekiel
we
carry the Word of God and
it yields
God’s
purposes;
“27 But when I speak
with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the
Lord God.’ He who will hear, let him hear; and he who will refuse to hear, let
him refuse, for they are a rebellious house. ” Ezekiel 3:27 English
Standard Version (ESV). God’s Word is a two edged sword (see
Hebrews 4:12) that
separates what is bad away from what is good.
The Holy Spirit will bring to our remembrance all what we read in God’s
Word (see
John 14:26) when we need
to use it. “8 [The Righteous
Shall Live by Faith] For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power
of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the
Greek.” Colossians 2:8-10
ESV. As watchmen
for God we can go forth with confidence in our faith; knowing that Jesus (see
Hebrews
13:5) will never leave or forsake us.

“8 See to it that no one takes
you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition,
according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to
Christ. 9 For in him the
whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, 10 and you have
been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.”
Colossians 2:8-10
ESV.
