Ezekiel 12-14; Revelation 5

"For I am the LORD, I speak, and the word which I speak will come to pass;" Ezekiel 12:25

Observe with me how many times, in the three chapters we have just read, Ezekiel says 'the word of the Lord came to me'.
     Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying: (Ez. 12:1)
     And in the morning the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (Ez. 12:8)
     Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (Ez. 12:17)
     And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (Ez. 12:21)
     Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (Ez. 12:26)
     And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (Ez. 13:1)
     And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, (Ez. 14:2)
     The word of the Lord came again to me, saying, (Ez. 14:12)

I can identify with Ezekiel. Throughout my life I have been privileged to hear God speak to me, sometimes loud and clear, while other times in a still small voice. The words He has spoken have challenged me, guided me, comforted me, exhorted me, and even shocked me. Whatever the case might have been, the words have always been timely and needed. I don't know where I would be today if I hadn't heard His voice, therefore I cherish the simple fact that He Speaks. But not only does He Speak, what He says is always the truth and reliable. You can count on it, base your life on it, follow it and expect it to come to pass.

We do not serve a mute God. He speaks. Are you listening?

My prayer for you is that you would draw near to the Lord, expecting to hear from Him. I pray that you would get to know His voice, in such a way, so that you won't be mislead by the other voices which try to drown out the Lord's.

Following Jesus Christ,
