The Vision, Day 5

Harsh reality. Read Ezekiel chapter 5.

God walks Ezekiel through more very specific demonstrations that he is to do to share the upcoming judgment with the people of Israel. These seem harsh and difficult. God tells him that he’s going to make the people a reproach among the nations. It’s a reminder that God is ultimately the one in charge of our reputation.

If we are obedient to him and are following him, then God can protect our reputation. If we are not obedient to him, then God is going to allow the other nations to know that we are not following him so they are warned not to make the same mistake. Our life is an example to others and God uses us to share reputation to others. What is that example and what do we want that example to be?
