Today we read Jeremiah 5-6, Ezekiel 30-33. We are reminded that choosing foreign "gods" leads to defective ways (e.g., oppression) and ultimately to foreign lands and foreign people. God cannot allow evil to endure, especially if the people are claiming to bear His name in live in His land. The people are reminded of the risk they run in not listening to the watchman, the prophet, danger is coming. The story tells us, that the warnings are rejected and the people are given over the the Babylonians. Yet, more than once, the story reminds us, this exile would not destroy the people, completely. God's hope is that we run from sin, we repent, we return with our whole heart and regardless of our choice, His rescue mission is still on and He will continue to be faithful to His covenant.

Today we read Isaiah 61-63, and Ezekiel 20-21. God is acting in accordance with His character, He cannot let evil endure, the cup of iniquity is full, and He will act for the sake of His reputation and His purposes. Ezekiel is making it known that Israel is one of many and their sins took root in Egypt and He will respond to infidelity and apostasy, it cannot be allowed and He can use human enemies to avenge the sacred corruption and spurning of His grace.

Today we read Isaiah 59-60, and Ezekiel 17-19. In this story, we are reminded that repentance and returning to God are intrinsically linked in the Hebrew language "shuva" return, and "teshuva," repent. The root in both words is to return. This seems to be the described pre-operative steps toward God's gift of a new heart and a new soul, to live.

Today we read Isaiah 57-58, and Ezekiel 14-16. Adult theme warning. We read a parabolic marriage metaphor with a dark allegorical twist (e.g. graphic storytelling imagery) - the marriage goes south with adultery (e.g. for pleasure) which is more frequently described as prostitution (e.g., for profit, gain, numbness). Then this story becomes different from the other similar parables we have read such as the Hosea story or even the Sodom and Gomorra story where Lot's daughters are spared and Hosea pursues His unfaithful wife for restoration. The outcome reads more like Judge 19, where there is shaming and violence that is so gruesome it is hard to consider. We are also reminded that this story is a parable using allegory within the context of a marriage metaphor and not actually about God and a woman but the relationship between God and Jerusalem, the Israelite people which is likened to this scenario, the point being the accusation is here and judgement is being rendered through exile and the destruction of the temple and Jerusalem. Perhaps the parable is so allegorically dark and graphic to shock the hardened hearts of the people of Israel, to reach their wayward souls. This story is not condoning violence against women. Have you every listened to a story that is meant to illustrate the truth in imagery or story but you found the crassness or dark humor distasteful and problematic? This story is like that for me. I understand the lesson, the hidden meaning is conveyed, but it doesn't mean I liked the way the message was conveyed. We know from the stories we have already read, God wants right relationship with His people and will not give up on them or His purpose, His rescue mission, His desire to right-side the world.

Today we read Isaiah 54-56, and Ezekiel 12-13. We are being reminded of the two responses to Jesus "the Servant." The first is to be humble and repent to receive God's blessing and become a transformed heart, a servant, a seed for the Messianic Kingdom. The second is to reject both "the Servant" and the servants of "the Servant." We also learn that "whitewashing" God's truth or prophesying with our imagination in a way that is drifted and not anchored in God's story, God's message, will ensnare people, encouraging people to wickedness, and discouraging the righteous.

Today we read Isaiah 47-49 and Ezekiel 8-9. We are being told to lift up our eyes, to remember that God can take us from the warriors that hold us captive or the idols that have our hearts. And Yes, God can take us, who have become plunder for the adversary, tested in the furnace of affliction, and retrieve us. We are reminded that God is the first and the last. He created it all and it all works together for Him. His glory will not, cannot be denied. We are reminded to come near and listen to the Lord for He teaches us what is best and the direction to go. He gives peace, well-being, a name, and progeny. We are called by God to leave the things that have captured our hearts and declare the joy, be strengthened in the Lord and declare this message of redemption to others for He will provide water from the rock in the deserts we find ourselves in; He will be our sanctuary, our wing to provide shadow and flight. We read that the Lord will not quit on Israel, He will not desert His promise, He will display His glory and honor through His people. He will be their strength. He is their reward. His salvation will be a gift to all the earth and for all time. We are reminded yet again, that judgement, the fire, the desert, the valley of the shadow of death, the storm is intentional but the intent is not harm, it's to refine, transform, hewn us, those around us, and all creation. Not just that, but that God will be with us in front as a guide. He will be our rear guard and He will be our sanctuary in and through it all.

Today we read Isaiah 44-46 and Ezekiel 6-7. In this story, God is making clear, turn to me (Yahweh), listen to me, remember me. I (Yahweh) am God, there is no other. There is none like me. In the Lord alone is deliverance and strength. God says I have made you. I will carry you. I will sustain you (even in your old age). I will rescue you. He brings His righteousness near, even though we are far away from His righteousness and are stubborn-hearted. There is this sense of pursuit and urgency. In grace, in judgement, through it all God is working His plan, His promises and we will know He is Lord, through it all.
