Ezekiel 19- Expectation Disruption

Ezekiel 18- Personally Responsible

This same thing is one of the most insidious manners in which Christian’s sin.  We take the blessings of God and credit them to our abilities and turn it into an idol…the idol takes over and we can reject God in search of more glory, more honor, more pleasure, more fame…

God allow my heart to be soft to you in humility and credit You wholly with all that you have blessed me.  Please strengthen my resolve to point to You in every victory and every blessing!

Ezekiel 15- Called to Faithfulness

 

God calls us to be faithful as we accomplish the work He called us to.  He wants us to understand that He alone is God and the only one worthy of molding our will toward.  Lord, help me to be malleable as I endeavor to be surrendered to You!
