*TODAY’S THEME: God's Presence and Freedom*
Text: Ezekiel 43:7-9
"[7]And He [the Lord] said to me, Son of man, this is the place of My throne and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever; and My holy name the house of Israel shall no more profane, neither they nor their kings, by their [idolatrous] harlotry, nor by the dead bodies and monuments of their kings,
[8]Nor by setting their threshold by My thresholds and their doorposts by My doorposts, with a mere wall between Me and them. They have profaned My holy name by their abominations which they have committed; therefore I have consumed them in My anger.
[9]Now let them put away their [idolatrous] harlotry and the dead bodies and monuments of their kings far from Me, and I will dwell in their midst forever."
*SHOWER:*
Have you ever received an open invitation from a king or leader like Governor, Senator, House of Rep member or LG to attend a party or have tea with them? If no, why? If yes, how did you feel about the invitation? How did you prepare or attend such important? You will sure be tempted to purchase a new attire or wear the best out of many existing in your wardrobe. Some may also consult other experts like communicators to learn how to talk when meeting with the leader; or religious leaders to fortify them to obtain favour from the leader instantly; etc. However, here is God calling us to forsake our old ways and draw closer to Him. God in verse 9 of today's devotion is assuring us that He will surely draw his blessings, love and salvation unto us once we agree to return to Him. Isn't it amazing that the requirements are not expensive compared to what is tenable to the world?
