Ezekiel 34:11-31, Trusting God for Power, Strength and Truth
Ezekiel chapter 34, and we want to look at the second half of this chapter. On Sunday afternoon, we looked at the first portion of the chapter where the Lord chastised the false shepherds, the false shepherds of Israel that had led the nation astray. They had watched them really go up into the hills and begin to be involved in occultic worship, build high places and worship there just like they worship the pagan gods. They abandoned the truth…
Daniel 12:8-13, What is the meaning of the 1,290 and 1,335 days in Daniel?
The song you just sang is a song that speaks of the rapture. And the Apostle Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians, the rapture could occur at any time. The Apostle Paul thought the rapture was going to occur during his lifetime. He was looking for the Lord to come then. The sad thing is many Christians today aren’t looking for the Lord to come and gather his bride unto himself. As a matter of fact, many Christians don’t want…

The Watchman’s Warning: An In-Depth Look at Ezekiel 33
Turn with me to Ezekiel chapter 33. When the Lord comes to Ezekiel and gives him the message that he’s going to give him in this chapter, this isn’t given to him at the beginning of his ministry. This is given to him after he’s been called by God to share with the people. How many times have we heard the Lord say to Ezekiel, Son of man, hear this and say it unto your people. And they don’t listen.…
Daniel 12:5-9, Sealed Till the Time of the End
And truly we trust that you are looking forward to that day where we shall see the King. The last two songs we sang speak of the fact that Christ will return. And the Bible tells us that he is going to return for his bride to church and the rapture will occur. And that will set into motion the series of events that will culminate in the end of history, as this world knows it, with the second return…
Ezekiel 32 meaning, Ezekiel’s prophecy against Egypt.
Turn with me to chapter 32 of the book of Ezekiel. This is the fourth chapter in a row that Ezekiel is dealing with the topic of Egypt. And why is he dealing with this? Why did God lay this on his heart so much? We’ve mentioned before the fact that Egypt often in the Old Testament symbolizes the world. And Israel was always attracted to turn back to Egypt for help and direction. And whenever they found themselves in…

In Ezekiel 28:20–26, God turns His attention from Tyre to Sidon, declaring judgment upon a proud and sinful nation. Yet in the midst of judgment shines a powerful promise of restoration for Israel.
