According to one commentary, this chapter is referenced in 591 BC. Some of the elders of Israel came before Ezekiel to inquire of the Lord. God spoke to Ezekiel at that time and gave him the words that he should deliver to them and needless to say it was less than inviting. God would not let these rebellious and unrepentant hearts come and "inquire" of Him due to His holiness. He proceeds to say them that nothing that He held sacred (Sabbath) meant nothing to them so why should He even give them the time of day. How true is this for us? We ask without regard to our status and our relationship to the One that desires a relationship and respect. We ask when we run out of options and choices. Can we grieve the Spirit in this manner also?
I pray not since then we have lost all touch with our Father.
Long day yesterday, did the run up to NJ just to have a last minute physical done so I can get this stupid operation behind me. I pray that He will give me His healing hand during this season.
Praise Him for safe and a relatively easy commute last night and for a personal friend/physician and wife that has stuck in the middle of all of this nonsense.
