EZEKIEL: WHO'S SAVED AND WHO'S NOT



EZEKIEL'S DUTY TO A WICKED MAN
(Ezekiel 3:18-21)

Ezekiel was a prophet to the Israelites;
He was also the people's watchman.
Whose duty was to warn against sin,
He was not to disobey God's plan.

If Ezekiel didn’t warn a wicked man,
That for his sins he will die,
He would be held accountable,
Should he never even try.

But if he warned the wicked man,
Who still from his ways won’t turn,
The wicked man will die for his sins;
But Ezekiel himself would not burn.

The righteous things a wicked man does,
Will be remembered not.
Good doesn’t cancel out evil,
Evil hurts, no matter what.

But if a righteous man is warned,
He should continuously behave,
That man will surely live,
And Ezekiel himself God will save.

JOSHUA DEFEATS JERICHO

  JOSHUA DEFEATS JERICHO (Joshua 5 - 6:25) Joshua was brave and faithful; He led the people into the Promised Land. They fought the city of Jericho, With swords and a trumpet band. When Joshua was near Jericho, A city in the Promised Land, He looked up and saw a man standing, With a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went up to the man, And asked on which side was he, The man replied “Neither.” He was Commander of God’s army. Joshua fell on his face in reverence, Expecting something profound. The man said, “Take off your sa ndals, For you’re standing on holy ground. Through the man, the Lord said to Joshua, “I’ve delivered Jericho to you.” The war had not yet been fought, But now the time was due. The Jerichonians were afraid; They wanted to be left be. They had heard the amazing story, Of the parting of the Red Sea. The city was walled and tightly shut up; No one went in or out. An ill wind was blowing their way, Of that fact, no one had a doubt. The Lord’s instructions to Joshua, As...

MOSES & JOSHUA: A CALL TO ARMS

Image
  A CALL TO ARMS (Exodus 17:8-16) Nomads and raiders who killed for pleasure, Attacked the Israelites. Then Moses said to Joshua, “Go fight those Amalekites. For tomorrow I will stand on the hill, With the staff of God in my hands." While he, Brother Aaron and Hur climbed the hill, Joshua followed his commands. As long as Moses held up his arms, the Israelites were winning, But whenever he lowered his arms, The Amalekites were winning. When Moses' arms grew tired, He was given a stone to sit on. Aaron and Hur held up his arms, Until the sun was gone. Joshua won the battle, Then to Moses the Lord God said, "Write this down as something to remember, ‘Til their offspring all are dead." They fought off all of the Amalekites, In a multi-generation campaign. Their descendants were finally killed off, During King Hezekiah’s reign. The story has indeed been remembered; We can read it in the Bible today. This “call to arms” was quite unique, A faith and teamwork display. Beck...

THREE PART STORY OF SAMSON

  THREE PART STORY OF SAMSON Part 1: The Riddler (Judges 14:10 - 15:2) Samson was set apart by God, To be a Nazarite. He was never to cut his hair, For in it was his might. From among the Philistine people, Samson took a wife. A string of events were set in motion, That would one day end his life. It started with fun at the wedding, With a riddle he would amuse. The prize was 30 pairs of clothes, And no one wanted to lose. When the answer escaped the Philistines, They sought out Samson’s wife. They told her she must help them, Or she would lose her life. She cried to her husband for several days, And when told how the riddle was solved, She promptly told the Philistines, Then the worst of events evolved. God’s Spirit came over Samson, Who killed thirty of their men. He took their clothes and paid his debt, But, oh, what would happen then. The tit for tat continued, To another his wife was given. When Samson went to see her, With his best man she was livin’. Part 2: Foxfire (Judges ...
