God promises to restore us and help us

Ezekiel 36:1-23

The Lord loves you and me so much John 3:16.

Within the love of God for us there are times that we have lost so much to those around us and others.

Verse 3, for example we have lost a lot to Covid 19 pandemic, and we continue to lose.

Why? Because:

We have defiled the land by our conduct and actions. Vs17

Profaned the name of the Lord vs 22

In your loss there are times you are ridiculed and talked about vs 3-4

But today I have good news for you:

The Lord declares that you shall not suffer shame anymore, but your enemies will suffer the shame (vs 7, 15)

The Lord promises to restore us and help us (vs 8-12)

He will look on you with favor,

You will begin to produce again,

You will be rebuilt,

You will be a blessing to others as well,

You will prosper like never.

He is not doing this for your sake but for the sake of His Holy name vs 22-23

Therefore, I am calling on all of us to turn to the Lord in humility and repentance from all our sins and wicked ways and seeking the face of the Lord.2 Chronicles 7:14

The Lord will hear us and restore us as He has promised in Jesus’ name. Amen.

God bless you all.

Yours in service
