PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH & NATION:
May you know the conviction and compassion of God’s word (Ezk5:1-4). #GodsMeasureOfJustice
MORNING WATCH NOTES:
After Ezekiel had shaved his head and beard, he was to weigh out three equal parts:
1/3 he would burn over his model city (4:1,2). These are those who would die by famine and disease in the siege of Jerusalem (5:12).
1/3 were to be chopped up by his sword. These are those who would die by the sword of the enemy (v12).
1/3 was to be scattered to the wind. These are those who would be chased down by the enemy and slaughtered (v12).
Ezekiel was to save some hair out and tuck it into his robe, but some of these would also be thrown into the fire. These are the remnant to be saved who believe (but even some of those will be lost – Mat 7:21-23).
God may be speaking harshly here, but he always speaks clearly and for our good. Lord, may I know and understand clearly the conviction and compassion of your word.
