TOPIC: The Returning of God’s Glory To The Temple

TEXT: Ezekiel 43:1-12(NKJV)

Daily Fountain Devotional 11 August 2022 MESSAGE

After restoration of Israel in their land, God proposed to live among them. The book of Ezekiel begins with an awe-inspiring vision of God’s glory. Chapters 8-11 describe how the glory of God progressively departed from the temple and the land of Israel because of the sins of the people.

Israel’s past evil had created a world in which God could no longer be present among them; a world in which God’s presence could not be known. The prophet concludes with another awe-inspiring vision: God’s glory, power and love filling the temple again. Now God’s glory and presence returned to the temple.

In the Old Testament, God had a temple for His people, but in the New Testament, God has His people for His temple. Christians are expected to drop their old ways of life (v.9) because they are now a new set of people (2Cor. 5:17). They should destroy every of their earthly members (Col. 3:5).

Just as God is holy, so Christians are to be holy (Lev. 19:2). Christians will only be holy when they are devoted to God and separated from sin. We should desire above all else to see God’s glory manifested within the church through the operation of the Holy Spirit.

PRAYER: Lord, let Your glory be seen through me in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
