  • A New Heart
    Jan 27 2025
    So far, Ezekiel’s focus on God’s work of restoration has been externally focused (i.e., new shepherd, new covenant). In Ezekiel 36, God’s work of making “all things new” encompasses the internal too. What God’s people in Babylon really need is a new heart! True transformation happens only by divine intervention from the inside-out. Through His Spirit, God promises His people heart surgery – removing their hard, unbelieving stone-like hearts and implanting a soft, pliable believing heart. Not only will His Spirit complete the procedure, but He will indwell God’s people and lead them to walk in obedience to His words and ways. Jesus connects this divine procedure to baptism in John 3.

  • A New Covenant
    Jan 21 2025
    God says, “I will cut with them a covenant of peace.” (Ezekiel 34:25) What does that mean? A covenant in the OT was not an impersonal contract, informal agreement, or word-of-mouth handshake; rather, covenants were cut and binded two sides via animal blood. With His persistently rebellious people, God promises a covenant of peace (shalom). Peace is not simply an absence of conflict; peace means wholeness, safety, and security. In Jesus, God cut a covenant of peace with Him via Jesus’ blood. In Him we are whole, safe, and secure.

  • A New Shepherd
    Jan 13 2025
    After the fall of Jerusalem, God chastises the unfaithful religious leaders (i.e., shepherds) of His sheep. At the hands of their gross, spiritual negligence, His people have become prey, malnourished, scattered, lost, and injured. Therefore, God promises that He Himself will be their Shepherd. He will search for His sheep and rescue them. He will gather and feed them. He will bind up and strengthen them. He will help them lie down in rich pastures. We see God’s promise realized most fully in Jesus, our Good Shepherd.!
