The Chapter-A-Day thread. (3)

[Extraneous]

Yes, God's heart is with the widow, the fatherless, the suffering, those who have no voice to speak up for and defend themselves.

Blessed are the poor in spirit. Their's is the kingdom of heaven.

Ezekiel 22:

Oh God, forgive us!!! This is "us", isn't it? We are to PRAY for our land and people and "stand in the gap" for the people and our land.

Oh help us to do this, in Jesus name, amen.

Philippians 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

This verse is good as well. Holy hands, without wrath.

1 Timothy 2:8 I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;

Amen. It would be a great study to delve into what holy hands means.

Amen.

Ezekiel 24:

This chapter is sorrowfully devastating.

Tragic.

Ezekiel 23:

Tragic.

Drunkenness most likely refers to discord, division, and contention, and this is done at night, when it is hard to see. The prophets do not see the right way, and they stagger like drunkards. The sorrow mentioned is also most likely discord, contention and division.

Isaiah 29:9 Pause and wonder!
Blind yourselves and be blind!
They are drunk, but not with wine;
They stagger, but not with intoxicating drink.
10 For the Lord has poured out on you
The spirit of deep sleep,
And has closed your eyes, namely, the prophets;
And He has covered your heads, namely, the seers.

Proverbs 23:29 Who has woe?
Who has sorrow?
Who has contentions?
Who has complaints?
Who has wounds without cause?
Who has redness of eyes?
30 Those who linger long at the wine,
Those who go in search of mixed wine.

1 Thesselonians 5:4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night.

Mathew 24:45 “Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. 47 Assuredly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’[g] 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards, 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of, 51 and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Ezekiel 26:

God is reminding the people again and again WHO He is.

It's tragic that He was rejected to that degree.

 

[Extraneous]

In my opinion anyway.
