Today’s
Feast
Aug. 3,
2014-Ezekiel 20
Rebels
and Idolaters
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!
“Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature:
sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is
idolatry. Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.” Colossians 3:5-6
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our
Feast by reading the book of Ezekiel
Chapter 20;
“The elders of Israel are reminded of the idolatry in Egypt. (1-9) In the wilderness. (10-26) In Canaan.(27-32) God promises to pardon and restore them. (33-44) Prophecy against Jerusalem. (45-49)“ - Matthew Henry Concise.
Ezekiel warns the
elders in Israel; (see
Ezekiel 20:1-9) God will
justly punish those who willfully go on in their sin. Ezekiel reminds them (see Ezekiel 20:10-26) of their
history of sin and idolatry in the wilderness. How their ancestors also rejected God, His law
and condoned sin (see Ezekiel 20:27-32) how do
they think they will escape God’s judgment. If they
continue to practice
sin and
ignore
the power
of God’s
grace
(see
Ezekiel 20:33-44)
they
will
see the hateful nature of sin
and God’s
wrath.
While
Judah
and Jerusalem had
a large population
(see
Ezekiel 20:45-49)
they
remained small
in the fruit
of
the spirit.
Those
who deny God’s
Word will
suffer God’s
wrath; “48 All flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled it; it shall not be
quenched." 49 Then I said, "Ah, Lord
GOD! They are saying of me, 'Is he not a
maker of parables?'" ”
Ezekiel 19:13-14 English Standard Version (ESV). We
are to separate
ourselves
from the sin and
idolatry of
this world (see
1 John 2:15-17) while we carry the Word of God and the love
of Jesus to them. We must not be swayed
by what we see; “7 But the
LORD said to Samuel, "Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his
stature, because I have rejected him. For the LORD sees not as man sees: man
looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the
heart."”
1 Samuel 16:7 ESV. What does God see (see
Romans 3:10-23)
when
he looks at
the
heart of an unrepentant
idolater? What
will God see when he looks on the heart of the repentant person
(see
Romans 10:9-10)
who accepts
Jesus? It
is time for each
of us (see
Deuteronomy 30:19)
to
choose sides.

“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.
