Ezekiel 22 – 23
The Lord gives Ezekiel a message regarding the sins of Jerusalem --- and they are many. He speaks of the people of Israel being worthless slag that remains after silver is smelted. He will cause them to melt like silver in fierce heat.
The Lord speaks of looking for “someone who might rebuild the wall of righteousness that guards the land and searching for “someone to stand in the gap in the wall so I wouldn’t have to destroy the land” and sadly says, “but I found no one.” He found no one, so he poured out his fury.
In my opinion, God is once again searching for those who will stand in the gap in the wall so he won’t have to destroy this great nation. I see his hand moving people to “humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways” so that he can hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land.” May God grant that this be so.
Tomorrow, we’ll be reading Ezekiel 24 – 27.
Send in the Clowns
A bit of nostalgia for those of us who remember the "clowns."
Frank Sinatra sings send in the clowns . . . and wait for the clowns.
Then please listen to the last bit by Orson Wells
Until next time…
