PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH & NATION:
Seek to move in unison with the heartbeat of God for this world (Ezk 1:10-14). #HeartForGod #UnityOfPurpose
MORNING WATCH NOTES:
Ezekiel continues his elaboration of the four beings and what he saw in his vision of God. Each of the four living beings that he saw (vv 5–9) came out of dark clouds above him and each had four faces. A human face was on the front, a lion’s face was on the right side, an ox face was on the left, and an eagle’s face was on the backside. All were covered in seeing eyes.
The four faces enable them move to forward in any direction without turning. They did so in a lightening fast, darting fashion as they were led by the spirit. The eyes enable them to see everywhere and at once. Spirit here likely refers to the mind or will; metaphorically as the wind and human soul (note Psm 104). The will of these beings was harnessed by God as one. They moved as God led them and in unison and in any direction.
Lord, may I move in unison with the heartbeat of God for my world.
