Yesterday, Ezekiel shared with us a remarkable message he had received from God about speaking ONLY as God led him to speak, and we were challenged to consider how alert we are to God as He wants to guide us when to speak, when to be quiet, and WHAT to speak! I know Ezekiel’s words in Ezekiel 3:26,27 really struck my heart, what about yours? Today, what place do you think of when I use the word “HOMETOWN”? Let’s join Ezekiel as he shares with us the next fascinating thing God instructed him to DO. Would you believe Ezekiel’s next message from God directed him to build a clay model of the city of Jerusalem, the hometown of all 10,000 captives who were marched to Babylon with Ezekiel almost 6 years before. Ezekiel 4:1 begins: “Now son of man, take a block of clay, put it in front of you and draw the city of Jerusalem on it. Then lay siege to it: Erect siege works against it, build a ramp up to it, set camps against it and put battering rams around it…this will be a sign to the people of Israel.” (Ez.4:1,2)
