KEEP ON KEEPING ON
Ezekiel 2:1-10
Ezekiel 3:3
The
call of Ezekiel into the ministry
Divine
call from God
Spirit
speaks, and gives him his specific assignment
One of the greatest obstacles to serving the Lord is
discouragement
This
is what we’ve got to do if you’re going to keep on keeping on…
1…STAND UP
Stand
up for Jesus Christ
Verse
1
Fell
on his face…good thing…humble thing
But
God picks them up
Over 80 times in Ezekiel, he’s refered
to as son of man
Speaks of his humanity
This
will keep you from burning out…
· When you understand
it’s not you doing something for the Lord
· The Lord doing
something in you
· The Lord doing
something thru you
2
Cor 4:7
We
have this treasure in earthen vessels…
2…REMAIN FAITHFUL
God
hasn’t called you to be successful
He’s
called you to be faithful
When
Jesus called his disciples…very up front with them
Matthew
10:8
· Heal the sick
· Cast out demons
· Raise the dead
· Cleanse lepers
· Preach the gospel
- Going to be like lambs thrown into the wolves
- Kick you out of the Synagogue
- Family is going to turn on you
- Hated for the sake of Jesus
3…DO NOT BE
INTIMIDATED
Lost
people will try to intimidate you
Saved
people will try also
Verse
6
3
times…do not be afraid of them
4…THRIVE SPIRITUALLY
Verse
8
This
is the Word of God given by his own hand
By
perseverance and perseverance alone, the snail made it on the ark!
