Daily Purity ~Ezekiel 28 -29 ~ '...they shall know that I am the Lord their God.'

Hey Just a quick Moment of Purity.

I was studying the word today, and was reading Ezekiel Chapters 28 and 29. It was speaking of the king of Tyre who was condemened and the prophecy against Egypt.
The King of Tyre was a king who thought he had done it all of his own power. He suffered from a disease the disease of pride. He was led by what he saw. If you read the chapter while Ezekiel prophesied he also started describing Satan and his fall (vs. 12-19).
The next chapter talked about the phophecy against Egypt and the judgement that was upon that land. A wonderul artistic, treasure full city, was known by God for their sins they commited, and for their unrighteousness they were condemened.

The thing that stuck out the most, is that in all that was done, God's agenda was that the people would know that He was God.

In the midst of evil leaders, unrighteous decisions, unlawful practices God's name was tainted and often overshawdowed by the wrongdoing of that time. God condemened because the people's wants and desires were selfish and God's name was not glorified.

Above all in our lives, lets make sure that God's name is glorified and lifted up above all. Lets make sure in all we do that the people know that He is God, and Lord of all!

Closing Prayer
We thank You God, and ask for your forgiveness! Thank you Lord for Peace of Mind, Love, Joy and Grace. We thank You for the gifts you presented us, and the mind to do, but God let us not overshadow you, nor let us forget you. But let our desires line up with your will for us! Help us to remember you in the midst of all we do!
We thank You God, because we were lost, but you found us. We were blind and you gave us sight, and though we walked in death, you gave us newness of life, and we thank you.
In Jesus' name, Amen!

Love you guys!

Peace!
