God Quote-Then They Will Know
JOHN SHIRK – In the Year of God’s Word, this is what the LORD says in Ezekiel 39, verse 28a.
“Then they will know that I am the LORD.” This was said in the context of the people of Israel gathering in their land from among the nations. The LORD says He will pour out His Spirit on the people of Israel.
When God moves in miraculous and redemptive ways, it is always for a reason. That reason is to draw attention to His greatness. By seeing God’s great power, wisdom and mercy, we are drawn to worship Him with a humble heart.
The empty grave is the most vivid and compelling reason for believing the Gospel. When Thomas saw the nail marks in the hands of Jesus, he stopped doubting the resurrection and exclaimed, “My Lord and my God!” Watching God’s work in the world helps us to see Him with eyes of faith and to believe in Him with a heart of faith.
Ezekiel 39, verse 28a-that’s today’s God Quote for us to embrace for life.
