The word is from Ezekiel chapter 6.The Lord prophesied against the Israelites for worshipping on other altars.The Lord brought a sword that destroyed their high places.Their Incense altars were destroyed and the slain men would be cast before their idols, the corpses of their children would be laid before their idols and their bones would be scattered upon their altars.The cities were also laid waste and their high places left desolate and the idols destroyed as they were led to captivity.Also the work of the Israelites were to be abolished.The slain would fall among them and then they will know that He is the Lord.
“He who is far shall die by the pestilence,he who is near shall fall by the sword and he who remains and is besieged shall die by famine.Thus I will spend my fury upon them.”The Lord did these so that He can remind the aldultorous hearts of the Israelites that He is The Lord.
Do i have high places which I have raised above the Lord’s altar.? To which altar due I take my offering.? What I practice and believe as a Christian is it a pleasing aroma to the Lord.? Those are some of the questions I ask myself.
My prayer is that we return to the feet of Jesus Christ and worship their,for in Him their is truth and life.Amen
