Applying Ezekiel

What does it mean? How can I live this out? These are important questions as we embed the Bible. We read for information and for transformation. God wants us to be changed when we come into contact with His Word. But how do we see Ezekiel? Ezekiel’s life and ministry has been centered around one small town in a foreign country at a time when God’s people were in exile. Uprooted from their homeland, separated from the temple, experiencing broken families, broken relationships, and broken hearts, the people of Israel must be confused, disoriented, and grieving. It is not hard to imagine that they must struggle with ‘why?’ Why is this happening? I don’t think it is too hard to identify with the question. Just look around at our hurting world, or inside our hurting hearts. Ezekiel’s answer is to seek God. To look to Him when we feel lost. To lean on Him when we feel weak. God is not far away, He is right here. Will you look for Him today?
