Ezekiel 28-30
What God said to me – I know you think of judgment as punishment and devastation, but it is much more. It is when I manifest My holiness in the midst of it all. Judgment is not just because of disobedience and rebellion – it is also because My holiness cannot abide sin. In order for My children to spend eternity with Me, judgment must come so that all sin and rebelliousness and ungodliness are dealt with because My holiness requires they be removed. I have been patient for a very long time in order to give time for repentance and restoration, but My patience is coming to an end. My plans have a set time and when the time comes, I will accomplish them. You must be ready. You must be alert. Don’t let down your guard because you think there is plenty of time. Behold I stand at the door.
