Daily Bible Reading – June 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of Spiritual Renewalサンプル

June 30 Introduction Today’s reading is from a section describing Ezekiel’s final vision about the restored Temple in Jerusalem. He sees the LORD’s glory returning to the Temple. Today’s Reading Ezekiel 43:1-17 Today’s Key Verse: Ezekiel 43:5 The LORD’s spirit lifted me up and took me into the inner courtyard, where I saw that the Temple was filled with the glory of the LORD. Reflect The return of the LORD’s presence reverses the departure of the LORD’s glory brought about by Israel’s priests bringing unclean things into the Temple (see Ezekiel 8—11). What instructions does Ezekiel receive from the LORD? The return of the LORD’s glory meant that the land and the Temple were now ritually clean and would stay that way if the priests and people obeyed God. God promises to live among the people (verse 7). In what ways does your community of faith experience the presence of God dwelling among you? Pray Consecrate me, O Lord, to your will. I present my life to you as a living sacrifice for service in your holy name. May all I do and say be pleasing to you, O Lord, and glorify you. Amen.
