“8 If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we
die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the
Lord” Romans 14:8
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our
Feast by reading the book of Ezekiel
Chapter 19;
“A parable lamenting the ruin of Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim. (1-9) Another describing the desolation of the people. (10-14)“ - Matthew Henry Concise.
Ezekiel, is
singing a funeral song for two of Israel’s leaders; (see
Ezekiel 19:1-9) as the
mother waited one died then the other.
Jerusalem was flourishing and fruitful (see
Ezekiel 19:10-14) and she was plucked up and burned because her
wickedness. This Lamentation (funeral song) is sung with great sorrow;
“13 Now it is planted in the
wilderness, in a dry and thirsty land. 14 And fire has gone out from the stem of
its shoots, has consumed its fruit, so that there remains in it no strong stem,
no scepter for ruling. This is a lamentation and has become a
lamentation.” Ezekiel 19:13-14 English Standard Version (ESV). The
battle we
fight to day (see
Ephesians 6:12) is against the same wickedness found in
Jerusalem. We must be prepared to battle
this wickedness; “13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able
to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand
therefore, having
fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of
righteousness,”
Ephesians 6:13-14 ESV.
Standing in the power of Jesus our song will be a victory song (see 1 John 5:4) not
a lamentation
of
great
sorrow.
