PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH & NATION:
Remain open to, obedient to God‘s call on your life (Ezk 1:1–3). #GodsCall #OpenToGod
MORNING WATCH NOTES:
We are introduced to Ezekiel as God opens up the heavens and reveals to him extraordinary visions. These were apocalyptic (revelatory) in nature. Ezekiel felt the hand of God take hold of him. (Note Ezk 3:12–17). Ezekiel was constrained by God to his prophetic ministry.
While Jeremiah is preaching to the people of Jerusalem, Ezekiel is called of God to his prophetic ministry in Babylon. He had been among those deported from Jerusalem to Babylon (597 BC). He was of the priestly class, following Aaron‘s lineage (Exo 28:1).
Lord, the call of God leaves no doubt, nor is the one called left dangling, for God holds that one.
