““Therefore speak to them, and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Everyone of the house of Israel who sets up his idols in his heart, and puts before him what causes him to stumble into iniquity, and then comes to the prophet, I the Lord will answer him who comes, according to the multitude of his idols, that I may seize the house of Israel by their heart, because they are all estranged from Me by their idols.” ’ “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Repent, turn away from your idols, and turn your faces away from all your abominations.” Ezekiel‬ ‭14‬:‭4‬-‭6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

 🔍 What are we Willfully Placing Before YHWH ELOHIM As Though He Cannot Look Straight through us to identify? Lamentations 4:12  The kings of the earth, and all the inhabitants of the world, would not have believed that the adversary and the enemy should have entered into the gates of Jerusalem. Jeremiah 22:8  And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this great city?  🔍If YAH Should put us under Observation, shine a Light Inspect with a Magnifying Glass What Will He See? GOD IS HOLY our Sin especially that of Idolatry Is an Obvious Defect Scheduled To Burn By The Heat Of His Corrective Gaze. Diagnosis: Hard Heart Idol Hypocrite: “Therefore speak to them and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Any man of the house of Israel who takes his idols [of rebellion] into his heart, and puts the [vile] stumbling block of his wickedness and guilt [images of silver and gold] before his face, and yet comes to the prophet [to ask of him], I the Lord will answer him, [but I will answer him] in accordance with the number of his idols, in order that I may take hold of the heart (mind) of the house of Israel who are all estranged from Me because of their idols.” ’ “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘Thus says the Lord God, “Repent and turn away from your idols and turn your faces away from all your disgusting and vile acts. I will set My face against that man [that hypocrite] and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from among My people; and you will know [without any doubt] that I am the Lord.”Ezekiel‬ ‭14‬:‭4‬-‭6‬, ‭8‬ ‭AMP‬‬ 🔍The Situation Is Critical The Diagnosis: Hard Heart Idol Hypocrite: Is Rough But YAH ELOHIM IS THE GREAT I AM JESUS CHRIST THE SAVIOR Willing to Save

Today’s lesson Ezekiel 14/52, today’s verses: “In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [draw your strength from Him and be empowered through your union with Him] and in the power of His [boundless] might.” Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭10‬ ‭❤️“Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good deeds and moral excellence, and [recognize and honor and] glorify your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭AMP‬‬ 🚶‍♂️ “For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed [to act] on behalf of men in things relating to God, so that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. He is able to deal gently with the spiritually ignorant and misguided, since he is also subject to human weakness;” Hebrews‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬-‭2‬  “But in your hearts set Christ apart [as holy—acknowledging Him, giving Him first place in your lives] as Lord. Always be ready to give a [logical] defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope and confident assurance [elicited by faith] that is within you, yet [do it] with gentleness and respect. [Is 8:12, 13]” 1 Peter‬ ‭3‬:‭15‬ ‭AMP‬‬ In Crisis Go To CHRIST The Heart of the matter and Spiritual War Fact: Someone else’s “religion, relationship, position or standing” with GOD can Never save you; we have to Get That for ourselves. ““Son of man, if a land sins against Me by committing unfaithfulness, and I stretch out My hand against it and destroy its source of bread and send famine on it and cut off from it both man and animal, even though Noah, Daniel, and Job were in the land, as I live,” says the Lord God, “they could not save either their son or their daughter; they would save only themselves by their righteousness [that is, their right-standing with God—their moral and spiritual integrity].” For thus says the Lord God, “How much more when I send My four severe judgments against Jerusalem—sword, famine, predatory beasts, and virulent disease—to cut off man and animal from it! [Lev 26:21-33] Then they will reassure you [in regard to the appropriateness of the judgments] when you see their [heinous] conduct and actions, for you will know that I have not done without cause whatever I did to it,” declares the Lord God.” Ezekiel‬ ‭14‬:‭13‬, ‭20‬-‭21‬, ‭23‬ ‭AMP‬‬ May GOD Continue To Be All That And DELIVER Us HalleluYAH 🙏🏽 Worship Is Warfare HalleluYAH! 🙌🏽 Be Blessed BeLoved
