Daily Scripture & Questions
Ezekiel 5-8 How is the destruction of Jerusalem portrayed in chapter 5? What is the ultimate end of this strong punishment (5:13; 6:7, 14; 7:4, 9)? About a year after the initial vision, Ezekiel is given another one in chapter 8. What are the abominations that he has seen?
Family Devotions—Scripture & Questions
Read Ezekiel 8:1-13. Ezekiel is given a vision that takes him to Jerusalem. He sees the terrible things that people are doing in dishonoring God. Why do the leaders do their idol worship in a dark room (see verse 12)? Do you ever buy into the lie that God doesn't know what we do in secret?
Biblical Prayer Focus
Luke 11:13 "If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
The Holy Spirit is given to all who trust Christ. Yet we face the daily decision of yielding to Him. Ask the Spirit to direct and control your life today.
