4 Scripture
Verse for Today
And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there
hath been a prophet among them. (Ezekiel 2:5)
What an astounding statement! We sometimes measure our worth
to God by our successes; however, the Lord let Ezekiel know that his job was to tell the people of Judah what he was instructed,
and whether they obey or not did not change his duty to preach.
They may not have repented of their sins, but after Ezekiel has finished his message, they knew that there had been
a prophet among them! He had made a lasting impression upon them.
Do our friends, our neighbors and our associates at work or school know that there has been a Christian among them?
Is our testimony so strong that they know without our telling them? God has put us in this dark
world to be a light; shine for Jesus today. ~~
