Day 233 – Chronological Bible in One Year Devotion:
In Ezekiel 20, God recounts Israel’s repeated rebellion despite His mercy. From Egypt to the wilderness, and even in the Promised Land, they chose idols over Him. Yet, God’s faithfulness remained constant—He spared them for the sake of His name, showing His mercy and longsuffering.
Ezekiel 21 reveals the seriousness of judgment. God wields His sword against both His people and the nations, reminding us that sin cannot be ignored. His justice is swift, sharp, and fair. In Ezekiel 22:1–16, God confronts Jerusalem’s sins—violence, idolatry, and corruption. Their unfaithfulness is exposed, but His intent is not destruction for its own sake—it is purification.
For believers today, these chapters remind us that God longs for repentance, not ruin. He is merciful, but also just. His call is for us to abandon sin, walk in holiness, and honor His name in our generation. His justice cleanses, but His mercy restores when we turn back to Him.
Prayer: Father, I turn from every rebellion and sin. Purge my heart of all unrighteousness and make me holy. Let my life be purified by Your Spirit and filled with obedience. Help me to walk faithfully with You, bringing honor to Your name in every season of my journey. In Jesus' name, Amen.
