THE BOOK OF EZEKIEL.

EZEKIEL, THE MAN.

Ezekiel was born in Jerusalem. He died in Babylon.

EZEKIEL is a boys name of Hebrew origin, meaning, “Strength of God.” Yechezekiel… “God will strengthen.”

He was considered as one of the greatest prophets of his time. He was the author of the book bearing his name.

He was one of the captives taken into exile by the Babylonians during the first fall of Jerusalem. He was both Prophet and Priest. This exile happened during the reign of Nebuchadnezzar approximately 597 BC.( before Christ) chapter 1:3.

Theologically, Ezekiel focuses upon Israel and a future new exodus when God will gather the people back to the Promised land.

God’s Word of consolation provides the blessings of peace, provision of food, a restored Covenant and the rebuilding of the Temple.

Ezekiel experienced extraordinary visions bringing consistent messages from the Lord to the people. He took the position of Prophet over the ministry of being a priest .

God spoke God’s messages very clearly concerning what would take place. Ezekiel was now 35 years of age during this first Babylonian exile.

God revealed what the evil practices were: First the practice of,

IDOLATRY.

He commanded them to repent and turn from their idols and renounce all their associated evil practices. Ezekiel 14:6.

MURDER.

Secondly, the Sacrifice of babies and children to deaf and dumb ldols. This detestable practice was a ritual of their neighbours, and foreign nations. Israel was widely influenced by them.

TODAY IN 2024, 6 Billion abortions have murdered innocent babies over a period of five years.

God calls this practice Abominable!

Ezekiel 16:22.

GROSS IMMORALITY.

“THEN ALL EXISTANCE SHALL KNOW THAT I GOD AM JEHOVAH !”

Prostitution, homosexuality, Adultery and Fornication.

As it was in the days of Noah, so it will it be at the days of the coming of the Son of Man.

As it was in the days of Ezekiel. Elijah, Joel, Daniel and many others.

As it is in 2025, so will it be when Jesus returns. I am not a Prophet, but I sense He is coming soon. Are you ready?

Most prophesies are fulfilled, and we are experiencing the signs and wonders Jesus mentioned in Matthew chapter 24. (Please read)

The focal message of Ezekiel which is expressed in various ways is:

“THEY SHALL KNOW I AM JEHOVAH”

It occurs in the Bible no less than 70 times. Twenty-nine times on the Judgement of the Gentile nations. and 17 times in the coming restorations of the elect of Israel. “Everyone who reads and understands this must know that Jehovah is the one true God and the Sovereign ruler of all nations.”

1. By the Sovereign power of God by the punishment of Jerusalem and the captivity of the chosen people.

2. By the judgements prophesied on the Gentile nations of Ezekiels day which came true exactly as foretold.

3. By the preservation and ultimate restoration of the Covenant people which had a partial fulfilment in the return of the remnant under the leadership of Ezra and Nehemiah.

4. Now in our times we have witnessed the marvellous preservation of Israel through wars and dreadful persecution.

5. And the church age which has is now hastening to it’s millennium 1,000 years consumption.

6. The Rapture: ( Catching up of every born-again believer.)

7. Then, the return of Christ with His saints to set up His Glorious, Unshakeable Kingdom of God.

Gog and Magog, now Iran, or once called Persia (Communist Russia and China), was destroyed by the assault of God.

Read Ezekiel chapter 38-39 and learn about the Final destruction of all evil and the renewal of God’s people.

Amen.

“Take one step toward God and He will take one step toward you.”
