Ezekiel 1 - 4
Ezekiel 1
The Vision of the Lord's Glory
1 (Eze 11:24; Mt 3:16) In the thirtieth year, in the fourth month,
on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives
by the river of Kebar, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.
2 (Eze 8:1; 20:1) On the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year
of the captivity of King Jehoiachin,
3 (2Ki 3:15; Eze 3:22) the word of the Lord came expressly to Ezekiel
the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the River Kebar.
And the hand of the Lord was on him there.
4 (Eze 1:27; 8:2) As I looked, a whirlwind came out of the north,
a great cloud with fire flashing forth continually, and a brightness
was all around it, and in its midst something as glowing metal
in the midst of the fire.
5 Also out of the midst came the likeness of four living creatures.
And this was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.
6 (Eze 10:14) Every one had four faces, and every one had four wings.
7 (Rev 1:15; Da 10:6) Their legs were straight and the soles of their feet
were like the sole of a calf's hoof. And they gleamed like the color
of burnished bronze.
8 (Eze 10:21) They had the hands of a man under their wings on their 4 sides.
As for the faces and wings of the four of them,
9 (Eze 10:22) their wings were joined to one another. Their faces did not turn
when they went. Each went straight forward.
10 (Eze 10:14; Rev 4:7) As for the likeness of their faces, each had the face
of a man, and all four had the face of a lion on the right side, and the face
of an ox on the left side, and the face of an eagle.
11 (Isa 6:2; Eze 1:23) Thus were their faces. And their wings were stretched
upward. Two wings of every one were joined to one another, and two covered
their bodies.
12 (Eze 1:9) Each went straight forward. Wherever the spirit was to go,
they would go and not turn as they went.
13 (Ps 104:4; Rev 4:5) As for the likeness of the living creatures,
their appearance was like burning coals of fire and like the appearance
of lamps. It went up and down among the living creatures.
And the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
14 (Zec 4:10; Mt 24:27) The living creatures ran to and fro as the appearance
of a flash of lightning.
15 (Eze 10:9; 1:19-21) Now as I looked at the living creatures,
one wheel was on the ground by the living creatures for each of the four faces.
16 (Da 10:6) The appearance of the wheels and their work was like the color
of sparkling beryl. And all four of them had one likeness.
And their appearance and their work was, as it were, a wheel in the middle
of a wheel.
17 (Eze 1:9; 1:12) Whenever they went, they went in any of their four sides
and did not turn as they went.
18 (Eze 10:12; Rev 4:6) As for their rims, they were so high that they were
dreadful. And the rims of all four of them were full of eyes all around.
19 (Eze 10:16) Whenever the living creatures went, the wheels went with them.
And whenever the living creatures were lifted up from the ground,
the wheels also were lifted up.
20 (Eze 1:12; 10:17) Wherever the spirit was about to go, they would go
in that direction. And the wheels rose close beside them.
For the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
21 (Eze 10:17; 1:19-20) Whenever those went, these went. And whenever those
stood still, these stood still. And whenever those rose from the ground,
the wheels rose close beside them. For the spirit of the living creatures
was in the wheels.
22 (Eze 10:1; 1:26) The likeness of the expanse over the heads of the living
creatures was as the awesome gleam of crystal, stretched out over their heads
above.
23 Under the expanse their wings were stretched out straight, the one toward
the other. Each one also had two wings which covered its body on the one side
and the other.
24 (Eze 43:2; Da 10:6) When they went, I heard the noise of their wings,
like the noise of abundant waters, as the voice of the Almighty,
the noise of tumult as the noise of an army camp. Whenever they stood still,
they let down their wings.
25 There was a voice from the expanse that was over their heads
whenever they stood still and let down their wings.
26 (Eze 10:1; Ex 24:10; Rev 1:13) Above the expanse that was over their heads
was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone.
And on the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man
on it high up.
27 (Eze 1:4; 8:2) Then I saw as glowing metal, as the appearance of fire all
around within it, from the appearance of His loins and upward;
and from the appearance of His loins and downward I saw as it were
the appearance of fire, and there was a brightness around Him.
28 (Eze 3:23; Rev 10:1; Eze 8:4) As the appearance of the rainbow that is in
the cloud on a day of rain,
so was the appearance of the brightness all around.
This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord.
And when I saw it, I fell on my face and heard a voice of one speaking.
Ezekiel 2
The Call of Ezekiel
1 (Da 10:11; Eze 3:1) Then He said to me: Son of man, stand on your feet,
and I will speak to you!
2 (Eze 3:24; Da 8:18) When He spoke to me, the Spirit entered me
and set me on my feet. Then I heard Him speaking to me.
3 (Jer 3:25; 1Sa 8:7-8) And He said to me: Son of man, I send you
to the sons of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against Me.
They and their fathers have transgressed against Me even to this very day.
4 (Eze 3:7; Ps 95:8) And as for the impudent and obstinate children,
I am sending you to them. And you shall say to them, "Thus says the Lord God."
5 (Eze 3:27; 33:33) As for them, whether they listen or not (for they are a
rebellious house), they shall know that there has been a prophet among them.
6 (Jer 1:8; Mic 7:4) And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them
or be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with you,
and you dwell among scorpions. Do not be afraid of their words
or be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.
7 (Jer 1:7; Eze 3:10) You shall speak My words to them, whether they listen
or not, for they are rebellious.
8 (Rev 10:9; Isa 50:5) But you, son of man, hear what I say to you. Do not be
rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth
and eat what I give you.
9 (Eze 8:3; 3:1) When I looked, a hand was sent to me. And a scroll was in it.
10 (Rev 8:13; Isa 3:11) And He spread it before me. And there was writing
on the inside and on the outside, and written on it were
words of lamentation and mourning and woe.
Ezekiel 3
1 (Eze 2:8-9) Moreover He said to me, Son of man, eat what you find.
Eat this scroll and go speak to the house of Israel.
2 (Jer 25:17) So I opened my mouth, and He fed me this scroll.
3 (Ps 19:10; 119:103) He said to me, Son of man, feed your stomach
and fill your inward parts with this scroll that I give you.
Then I ate it, and it was as honey for sweetness in my mouth.
4 Then He said to me: Son of man, go to the house of Israel
and speak with My words to them.
5 (Jnh 1:2; Isa 33:19) For you are not being sent to a people
of foreign speech and hard language, but to the house of Israel,
6nor to many peoples of foreign speech and hard language, whose
words you cannot understand. But I have sent you to them who should
listen to you.
7 (Eze 2:4; 1Sa 8:7) But the house of Israel will not listen to you,
because they will not listen to Me. For all the house of Israel
is impudent and obstinate.
8 (Jer 1:18) But I have made your face as hard as their faces
and your forehead as hard as their foreheads.
9 (Isa 50:7; Eze 2:6) As emery harder than flint, I have made your forehead.
Do not be afraid of them or be dismayed at their looks,
though they are a rebellious house.
10 (Job 22:22; Eze 2:8) Moreover He said to me: Son of man, all My words
that I shall speak to you receive in your heart and hear with your ears.
11 (Eze 2:7; 2:5) Go to the captives, to the sons of your people,
and speak to them and tell them, whether they listen or not,
"Thus says the Lord God."
12 (Eze 8:3; Ac 8:39) Then the Spirit took me up, and I heard behind me
a great thundering voice: "ÂBlessed be the glory of the Lord in His place."
13 (Eze 1:24; 10:16-17) I heard also the noise of the wings of the living
creatures that touched one another and the noise of the wheels beside them,
even a great rushing sound.
14 (Eze 37:1; 2Ki 3:15) So the Spirit lifted me up and took me away,
and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the Lord
was strong upon me.
15 (Job 2:13; Ps 137:1) Then I came to the captives at Tel Aviv, who lived
by the River Kebar, and I sat there where they sat seven days,
causing consternation among them.
Ezekiel, a Watchman for Israel
16 (Jer 42:7) At the end of seven days, the word of the Lord came to me,
saying,
17 (Isa 52:8; Jer 6:17) Son of man, I have made you a watchman
to the house of Israel. Whenever you hear the word from My mouth,
then warn them from Me.
18 (Eze 33:6; Ge 2:17; Eze 3:20) When I say to the wicked,
"You shall surely die," and you do not warn him,
nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way that he may live,
the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity,
but his blood I will require at your hand.
19 (Eze 14:14; 14:20) Yet if you warn the wicked and he does not
turn from his wickedness or from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity.
But you have delivered your soul.
20 (Eze 18:24; 3:18; Ps 125:5) Again, when a righteous man turns
from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block
before him, he shall die. Because you have not given him warning,
he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done
shall not be remembered. But his blood I will require at your hand.
21 (Ac 20:31) Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man that the righteous
should not sin and he does not sin, he shall surely live
because he took warning. And you have delivered your soul.
22 (Ac 9:6; Eze 1:3) The hand of the Lord was upon me there,
and He said to me, Rise, go out into the plain, and I will talk with you there.
23 (Eze 1:28; Ac 7:55) Then I arose, and went out into the plain. And the glory
of the Lord stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Kebar,
and I fell on my face.
24 (Eze 2:2) Then the Spirit entered me, and set me on my feet,
and spoke with me and said to me: Go, shut yourself up within your house.
25 (Eze 4:8) As for you, son of man, they shall put bands on you
and shall bind you with them, so that you cannot go out among them.
26 (Eze 24:27) And I will make your tongue cleave to the roof of your mouth
so that you shall be mute and cannot be one to rebuke them,
for they are a rebellious house.
27 (Eze 24:27; 3:11) But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth,
and you shall say to them, "Thus says the Lord God." He who hears,
let him hear. And he who refuses, let him refuse.
For they are a rebellious house.
Ezekiel 4
The Siege of Jerusalem Portrayed
1 You also, son of man, take a brick and lay it before you and inscribe
a city on it, even Jerusalem.
2 (Eze 21:22) Then lay siege against it, and build a fort against it,
and build a mound against it; set camps and place battering rams
against it all around.
3 (Isa 8:18; 20:3) Moreover take for yourself an iron plate
and set it up for a wall of iron between you and the city.
And set your face against it so that it is besieged, and lay siege against it.
This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
4 (Lev 16:22; 10:17) As for you, lie down on your left side
and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it.
According to the number of the days that you lie on it,
you shall bear their iniquity.
5 For I have laid upon you the years of their iniquity according to the number
of the days, three hundred and ninety days. So you shall bear the iniquity
of the house of Israel.
6 (Nu 14:34; Da 9:24-26; 12:11-12) When you have accomplished them, lie again
on your right side, and you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days.
I have appointed you each day for a year.
7 (Isa 52:10) Therefore you shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem,
and your arm shall be uncovered, and you shall prophesy against it.
8 (Eze 3:25) I will lay bands upon you, and you shall not turn yourself from
one side to another until you have ended the days of your siege.
9 Also take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils,
and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel and make bread.
According to the number of the days that you lie on your side,
three hundred and ninety days, you shall eat it.
10 Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels
[About 8 ounces, or 230 grams.] a day. From time to time you shall eat it.
11 You also shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin.
[About 2/3 quart, or 0.6 liter]. From time to time you shall drink it.
12 You shall eat it as barley cake, having baked it in their sight with dung
that comes out of man.
13 (Da 1:8)Then the Lord said, "Even so the sons of Israel shall eat their
defiled bread among the nations where I drive them.â€
14 (Eze 9:8; 20:49) Then I said, “Ah, Lord God! My soul has not been defiled.
For from my youth up even until now I have not eaten of that which dies
of itself, or is torn in pieces, nor has abominable meat come into my mouth."
15 Then He said to me, "I have given you cow dung instead of man's dung
over which you shall prepare your bread."
16 (Lev 26:26; Eze 5:16) Moreover He said to me, Son of man, I will cut off
the supply of bread in Jerusalem. They shall eat bread by weight
and with anxiety and drink water by measure and with horror,
17 (Lev 26:39; Eze 24:23) because bread and water will be scarce, and they will be appalled with one another, and waste away for their iniquity.

Entitled Heeding the Warnings
Matthew 10:1-7,32-33
Matthew 10
The Mission of the Twelve Apostles
Mk 3:13-19; Lk 6:12-16
1 (Mk 3:13-15; 6:7-13) He called His twelve disciples to Him
and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out,
and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.
2 (Mt 4:18; 4:21) Now the names of the twelve apostles are these:
first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother;
James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother;
3 (Mk 3:18; Ac 1:13; Mt 9:9) Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas,
and Matthew, the tax collector; James, the son of Alphaeus;
and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;
4 (Mt 26:14; Jn 13:2) Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot,
who also betrayed Him.
The Commissioning of the Twelve Apostles
Mk 6:7-13; Lk 9:1-6
5 (Jn 4:9; 2Ki 17:24-41) These twelve Jesus sent out, and commanded them,
saying, "Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter any city
of the Samaritans.
6 (Jer 50:6; Ps 119:176) But go rather to the lost sheep of the house
of Israel.
7 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) As you go, preach, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is
at hand.'"
Confessing and Denying Christ
Lk 12:8-9
32 (Rev 3:5; Ro 10:9-10) "Whoever will confess Me before men,
him will I confess also before My Father who is in heaven.
33 (2Ti 2:12; Mk 8:38)But whoever will deny Me before men,
him will I also deny before My Father who is in heaven."
When a pickpocket tried to pilfer my property while I was on vacation
in another country, it wasn't a surprise. I'd read warnings about
the danger of subway thieves, so I knew what to do to protect my wallet.
But I never expected it to happen.
Fortunately, the young man who grabbed my wallet had slippery fingers,
so it fell to the floor where I could retrieve it. But the incident reminded
me that I should have heeded the warnings.
We don’t like to dwell on warnings because we think they'll get in the way
of enjoying life, but it's imperative to pay attention to them. For instance,
Jesus gave us a clear warning while sending out His disciples to proclaim
God's coming kingdom (Matthew 10:7). He said, “Whoever will confess Me before men,
him will I confess also before My Father who is in heaven.
But whoever will deny Me before men,
him will I also deny before My Father who is in heaven.†(vv. 32–33).
We have a choice. In love, God provided a Savior and a plan for us
to be in His presence for eternity. But if we turn away from God
and choose to reject His message of salvation
and the real life He offers for both now and forever,
we lose out on the opportunity to be with Him.
May we trust in Jesus, the One who chose to save us from
being eternally separated from the One who loves and made us.
By: Dave Branon
Reflect & Pray
Why is rejecting Jesus such a serious thing?
How have you chosen to respond to His call?
Heavenly Father, thank You for providing salvation
through Jesus. And thank You for sending warnings to remind me
of the importance of putting my faith in Him.

Week 5 Rejoice in Grace - Day 5 Called by Name
Isaiah 43:1
1 But now, thus says the Lord
who created you, O Jacob,
and He who formed you, O Israel:
Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
Eric, age 4, somehow lost his mother in a large and busy department store.
Found sobbing under a coat rack, the boy tried to tell the security guard
where he was when he got separated from his mother. Finally the guard said,
"what's your name, Son? Who do you belong to?"
The child brightened a bit, gave the guard his name, and within minutes
the frantic mother was reunited with her lost son.
One of the first questions we are asked, both as children and adults, is
"What is your name?" - that is, "Who are you? Who do you belong to?"
Children bear the name of their parents, and most women,
except for professional reasons,
take the name of their husbands when they marry.
Our names are our primary method of identification;
they connect us with our heritage and those we love.
In Isaiah 43:1, God declares that we belong to him.
The Lord who created us and formed us says,
"I have redemmed you; I have called you by name; you are mine." God's
right of ownership in our lives extends beyond the bond of family and friends,
of parent, child, or spouse. We belong first to him;
we are called by him into oneness with him.
The Scripture is filled with images of the Lord's care for us;
when we are lost, he does
not wait for us to find him,
but takes the initiative, like a loving parent
to seek us out. That declaration of belonging can give us
a strong sense of security in our lives. God loves us;
he will never let us go.
Application
a) What experiences have I had of being lost of abandoned?
b) How can today's verse help me find security in belonging to God?
4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland
Prov 13:22
22 (Job 27:16-17; Pr 28:8) A good man leaves an inheritance to
his children’s children, and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.
5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:
When you are Angry of Vengeful
Romans 12:14-21
14 (Mt 5:44; Lk 6:28) Bless those who persecute you; bless, and do not curse.
15 (Heb 13:3; Job 30:25) Rejoice with those who rejoice,
and weep with those who weep.
16 (Ro 11:25; 15:5) Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not be haughty,
but associate with the lowly. Do not pretend to be wiser than you are.
17 (Pr 20:22; Mt 5:39) Repay no one evil for evil. Commend what is honest
in the sight of all men.
18 (Mk 9:50; Ro 14:19; Mt 5:9) If it is possible, as
much as it depends on you, live peaceably with all men.
19 (Dt 32:35; Pr 24:29) Beloved, do not avenge yourselves,
but rather give place to God's wrath, for it is written:
"Vengeance is Mine. I will repay,"(Dt 32:35.) says the Lord.
20(Pr 25:21–22; Mt 5:44)Therefore
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him a drink;
for in doing so you will
heap coals of fire on his head.â€(r 25:21–22.)
21(1Pe 3:9)Do not be overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good.
Remember God's promises when You pray
The Lord's prayer
Matthew 6:9-13
9 "Therefore pray in this manner:
Our Father who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your name.
10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;
Your will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.
12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."
6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)
New Brunswick
Total population 753900
Muslim population (est.) 4543
Moncton, followed by Fredericton and Saint John, each have a growing Muslim
population in New Brunswick, In 2007, the buliding that was formerly a Baptist
chruch was converted into Moncton's 1st mosque. The University of Moncton
also has a Muslim studentt association hosting prayer services, fellowship
getherings, and outreaches on campus.
Fredericton also has one mosque and a Muslim student assoication serving the
campusus of the University of New Brunswick and St. Thomas University.
Fredericton's MUslim population consists in 2014 of about 50 families,
and between 300 to 400 university students.
Saint John is home to the 1st Muslim Association for the province,
which also helped foster the Islamic asociations of Fredericton and Moncton.
a 'musalla', or prayer location that is not officially structured as a mosque,
has been established in the Uptown area with the intention of seeing it grow
into a 2nd official place of Muslim worship. Demand for this new location has
been primarily for university students moving into the area.
Pray for Muslims and New Brunswick
- that the eyes of pastors, believers and entire congregations will be opened
to see this growing body of Muslims, and their hearts will be opened
to sharing God's love in JEsus Christ with them
- that intentional ministries to Muslims will grow and flourish in these
areas of concentration
- that cooperative CNNMM Networks will form to really, encourage,
and equip believers to lovingly reach Muslims in this province.
Adding further
30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020
Under the Keep Praying page
When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month
and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days
of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that
usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,
of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be
decorated and festivals will be held.
For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the
distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of
Islam.
You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"
Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you
know, and Muslims around the world:
- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions
in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about
unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such
movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three
decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim
relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.
Acts 2:12-17 : 17 12 They were all amazed and perplexed, saying to each other,
"What does this mean?"
13 (1Co 14:23) Others mocking said, "These men are full of new wine."
Peter's Speech at Pentecost
14 (Ac 1:26) But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice
and said to them, "Men of Judea and all you who dwell in Jerusalem,
let this be known to you, and listen to my words.
15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose,
since it is the third hour of the day.
16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
17 (Isa 44:3; Ac 10:45) 'In the last days it shall be,' says God,
'that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams.'
- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective
discipleship movements among Muslim people.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for
Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.
Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a
hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the
house."
Ideas for prayer
- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving
Christ among Muslim people -
Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims
throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!
My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, atheists, secular humanists, ...) .
