Ezekiel #1
Ezekiel #1
(April 21, 2024)
Ezekiel, like many who see God's glory, shows us the right response to an encounter with God -- fall flat on your face before him. Is humble worship your response when God reveals himself to you?
This message lays the first of three stones to build a foundation for our study of the Old Testament book of Ezekiel.
Ezekiel #2
(April 28, 2024)
Ezekiel was called to speak to an unreceptive people. God's call on each of us is to deliver his message regardless of whether people will listen or not. The question isn't, "Am I called?" but "Will I go?"
This message lays the second and third foundation stones for our study of of Ezekiel.
Ezekiel #3
(May 5, 2024)
The watchman's job is two-fold: WATCH for danger and WARN of danger. God holds us accountable for passing along his message, no matter how people respond. Are you a faithful watchman?

Ezekiel #4
(May 19, 2024)
God communicates through more than just words. All his messages are completely consistent, and he backs up every single one -- both his warnings of judgment and his promises of blessing. Are you paying attention?
Ezekiel #5
(May 26, 2024)
God always keeps his word, both his promises of blessings for the obedient and his warnings about judgment for the wicked. The coming disaster should motivate us to obey and spread his message.

Ezekiel #7
(June 16, 2024)
When it comes to God's glory, he doesn't share well! Israel demonstrates that he abides with those who love him, but he will not cohabitate with idols. Is there anything in your life competing for your devotion to him alone?
Ezekiel #8
(June 23, 2024)
God is always faithful to his covenant, both to bless those who keep it and curse those who don't. God wants you to know him and the blessing of walking according to his laws and promises. Are you in covenant with him?

Ezekiel #11
(July 14, 2024)
Idolatry is so offensive that God compares it to a wife leaving her husband and becoming a sex-crazed prostitute. Such extreme sin requires an equally extreme (and costly) solution -- and God loves us enough to pay that price.
Ezekiel #12
(July 21, 2024)
When God's discipline comes, do you receive it or resist it? Submission is the path to survival, and humility is the way to restoration. What will be your response?
Ezekiel #13
(July 28, 2024)
We often ask, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" God reframes the question: "Are there any good people?" Instead of looking around for someone to blame, we need to look in the mirror and realize where we are falling short.
Ezekiel #14
(August 11, 2024)
We often ask, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" God reframes the question: "Are there any good people?" Instead of looking around for someone to blame, we need to look in the mirror and realize where we are falling short.
Ezekiel #15

Ezekiel #18
(November 17, 2024)
If we rely on anything other than God, he will show us how misplaced our confidence is. His rebuke of Egypt reminds us that everything he does is so all will know who he is -- the only one who should get the glory!
