Instructions

These are short devotional thoughts to accompany a daily Bible reading. The readings are arranged for a chronological reading of the scriptures. I am reading the Today's New International Version. However, it should work with any version. It is my prayer that it will encourage reading of God's word, and inculcating the teachings into daily living. May His richest blessings be with you!

September 2



Ezekiel 18-20
As I read of the rebellion of Israel I cannot help but compare it to the rebellion of America.  God said, “But they rebelled against me and would not listen to me; they did not get rid of the vile images they had set their eyes on, nor did they forsake the idols of Egypt. So I said I would pour out my wrath on them and spend my anger against them in Egypt.”  Our modern world is rebelling against God, not listening to Him; they refuse to turn from their vile speech and pornographic lifestyles, holding on to hedonistic values, while rejecting the wholesome, life-enriching statutes of the Lord.  How long will He put up with it, before He steps in and destroys this once, great nation that was under God?
