(Ezk 24:18-24)
PRAYING FOR FAMILY, FRIENDS, CHURCH & NATION:
Do not delay, postpone, repentance towards God (Ezk24:18-24). #TurnNowToGod #Repent
MORNING WATCH NOTES:
When Ezekiel‘s wife died and he showed no public display of mourning, the Jews with him in Babylonian captivity asked him what it meant to the nation. Ezekiel explains the message from God to them.
When Jerusalem is destroyed and they hear of their son’s and daughter’s deaths, they will not mourn publicly. The magnitude of the nation’s destruction would be so shocking that it would dwarf any outpouring of grief. They would, however, groan deeply over their sin and would finally return to God.*
Lord, may I never find myself this far away from God.
