230 - He will direct and make straight your paths

Chareen's Thoughts

• Yesterday the Lord painted a picture of Israel and Egypt using a parable of two sisters Oholibah and Ohalah.  Today begins with His judgement on each.
• I was a little saddened as I read about the consequence and realised how some false religions have taken this picture literally and punish adulterous woman this way.
• The Lord gives Ezekiel a parable to speak forth.
• Jerusalem is taken by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon.
• The Lord warns Ezekiel that He is about to take His wife home and instructs him not to mourn publicly.
• Jeremiah is imprisoned the first time.
• The Lord instructed that the slaves be set free.  At first the people obeyed but then they acted deceitfully and took them back and enslaved them.

In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; reverently fear and worship the Lord and turn [entirely] away from evil. Proverbs 3:6-7 (Amplified Bible) Reading about the cause and effect of sin and the Lords heart about it I come to realise more and more how much He desires my heart for Him and Him alone.
