The Lord Has Spoken

Scripture Ezekiel 17:21 All his fugitives with all his troops shall fall by the sword, and those who remain shall be scattered to every wind; and you shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken.”

Observation: When God does a miracle, we should all be aware and give God glory. We need God to fight for America there is so much evil surrounding this country and only God can save us. We need to pray as a country for His mercy, grace and protection to keep America from falling into the hands of our enemies.

Application: I need to do my part and pray each day for this country that I love. I need to pray for the freedoms we have and that God would take over. I need to pray for our president who to lead in Godly principles. I need to pray that our children will be able to enjoy the freedoms I grew up with.

Prayer My lord please place a protection around America help us fight our enemies and give us strength and wisdom to do what is right. I pray that this country would turn to you and that there will be a great revival that will glorify you.

The Children We Have Slayed

Scripture Ezekiel 16:21 that you have slain My children and offered them up to them by causing them to pass through the fire?

Observation: America has not protected our children. Abortion is the number one killer of children, they are sold for sex trafficking, abused by their parents and not protected. These are not our children, but God’s. God has a special place in His heart for children and He says if we don’t become like little children we won’t see the kingdom of Heaven.

Application: I need to see all children as God’s. I need to do what I can to protect them and guide them to our Lord. I’m donating to an organization that helps stop child sex trafficking and I need to find other ways to help children. I believe voting for the right candidates will slow down abortions in this country and stop funding for organization that support the death of children.

Prayer Dear Lord guide me each day on what You desire me to do to help protect Your children as I also am one of them.

Our Persistence in Unfaithfulness

Scripture Ezekiel 15:8 Thus I will make the land desolate, because they have persisted in unfaithfulness,’ says the Lord GOD.”

Observation: I can see why God would stop blessing America, because we have been unfaithful and have abandoned Him with our lack of faith. If His children, the Christians, who are called by His name don’t humble themselves, pray and seek His face and turn from our wicked ways our land will be desolate.

Application: God has given me a task for now and that is to reach people by praying with them for their needs and for our country. I need to personally be praying for our country and the president so God may hear and forgive our unfaithfulness.

Prayer Dear Lord please show mercy to this land you have blessed us with. May we turn from our wicked ways and make you the head of this country and that we will be obedient to all You call us to do. May we serve you with all of our hearts.

The Land That is Unfaithful

Scripture Ezekiel 14:13 “Son of man, when a land sins against Me by persistent unfaithfulness, I will stretch out My hand against it; I will cut off its supply of bread, send famine on it, and cut off man and beast from it.

Observation: America sure qualifies for a land that is unfaithful. God has been patient with us until now, but how much longer can His mercy go on. I try not to listen to the news, but by all reports it looks as if Satan is taking over this country and the people are not putting up much of a fight. This country has removed God so far from it and it’s hard to see Him through our unfaithfulness.

Application: I have no control over anyone but myself. I must stay faithful and do what I can to spread God’s word. I shouldn’t get involved in any gossip or pick a fight if someone disagrees with me, but do what honors God.

Prayer My Lord please forgive the evil that is happening in this country, a country You have blessed and protected throughout the years. May there be a revival to bring others to your name and use me as you desire/.

Foolish Prophets

Scripture Ezekiel 13:3 Thus says the Lord GOD: “Woe to the foolish prophets, who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing!

Observation: All the cults were created by foolish prophets, destroying people’s lives. Whether Mormon, Jehovah Witness or Islam, prophets have proclaimed false doctrine and lead people away from the true God. I wonder how many people these false prophets have robbed of having eternal life with their Father?

Application: Obey my God and do whatever He commands of me. To proclaim the One and Only God and then be an example of light I’ve been called to be. I’m called to be an example of love and with the Lord’s help I can succeed.

Prayer Dear Lord give me strength, wisdom and courage to fulfill my purpose You have given me. Direct my path today that I may be the light You call me to be.

Do as the Lord Commands

Scripture Ezekiel 12:77 So I did as I was commanded. I brought out my belongings by day, as though going into captivity, and at evening I dug through the wall with my hand. I brought them out at twilight, and I bore them on my shoulder in their sight.

Observation: I feel God has called me to do things that I didn’t understand or make sense to me. I tried to reason if they were from God or just nonsense from me. God calls us to do things that may not make sense to us to see if we trust and love Him. He has made it clear to me that it was His direction, but I would doubt the things that I didn’t want to do. God deserves or obedience and love no matter what.

Application: I need to continue to seek God in all of my situations and pray for His direction. I’m here to obey His commands and do what He desires me to do and not what I want. This time that I spend on this earth and for all eternity should be devoted to my Lord and I need to obey with gladness that He has chosen me to do His will.

Prayer My Lord I humbly come before you and give you this life as a living sacrifice, may it be holy and pleasing to You. Command me today that I may know and do Your will.

A Heart of Flesh

Scripture Ezekiel 11:19 Then I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them, and take the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh,

Observation: That is what God did for me, He took my stony hard heart and turned it into a heart of flesh. Before Jesus came into my life, I didn’t care about anyone, but myself and everything I did was for me. He changed my heart and gave me a new spirit and purpose. My heart stills hardens from time to time, but God continues to soften it and helps me to see others through His eyes.

Application: I need to continue to go to my Father and humble myself before Him. If I have any wicked ways within me, I need to ask forgiveness and to soften my heart. God is the potter and I am the clay. I need to remain pliable so that He can form me into the vessel He desires.

Prayer My Lord please take this anger and wrath from me. Soften my heart always so that I may be the child You desire. I love you Dad help me succeed in Your name.
