There is cause for rejoicing in the fact and truth of knowing that one day; and it is probably not too far off; that all the people of the earth will know the Holy One of Israel is the one true God. God's word confirms it over and over again. He has said it; it …

I Will Be Enquired Of…
The Old Testament is chocked full of God's amazing grace and mercy. I have learned over the years to view the history of the Old Testament as a picture of my life, and how God not only is working in me but also in all who have been redeemed through the blood of Jesus Christ. …
When Evil Has Ceased
"And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid." Ezekiel 34:28 (KJB) These verses (chapter 34:20-31) are of a time when King David will become the Prince alongside the King of kings in …
Israel to Dwell Safely
Dwell Safely From August 2016... “Thus saith the Lord GOD; ‘When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to My servant Jacob. And …
When Mourning for Sin Does Not Come
"Also the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke: yet neither shalt thou mourn nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down. Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the dead, bind the tire of thine head upon thee, …
The Defiled
Sin is not just personal. It is not just something you do against yourself. Sin; yes, even our own "Private", "Personal" sin hurts others. Those closest to you; your family, friends, your fellow workers at your place of employment. Even more and worse my sin and yours offends God. Hear God speaking through the prophet …
I Will Not Be Enquired of by You
It does not sound encouraging, comforting, or motivational. Does it? Some elders of Israel in the captivity of Babylon came to Ezekiel the prophet seeking God's counsel. They had not sought it before. Now they show some interest. God is not our spare tire. Hear the word of the LORD... "And it came to pass …
It is Spoken; It is Done
"And all his fugitives with all his bands shall fall by the sword, and they that remain shall be scattered toward all winds: and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken it." "And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted …
The Grace of GOD is Greater Far…
My reading of Scripture today was Ezekiel 15 - 16. Chapter 16 describes the sins of Judah and Israel, and why God judged them, the sins of Sodom and their judgment (16:49-50). We can see clearly that God does not tolerate sin. Sin is what God calls sin; it does not matter at all what …
The Poverty of Whitewash
"Because, even because they have seduced My people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter: say unto them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and …
Devour the Word of GOD
"And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein; and He spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe. Moreover He said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this …
The Sovereign Hand of God
"Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not? Out of the mouth of the Most High proceedeth not evil and good? Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins? Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the …
The Life of Two Kings
Today I want you to compare the life of two rebellious kings. Jehoichin which Scripture tells us "...did evil in the sight of the LORD" and Zedekiah also "...did evil in the sight of the LORD" (2 Kings 24:9, 19). The following verses tell us more of Zedekiah, and chapter 52 of Jeremiah gives us …
So Jeremiah Wrote in a Book…
"The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah into Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And this Seraiah was a quiet prince. So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, even …
The Children of Israel Shall Come
"In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God. They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward, saying, Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD …
