‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says!’ 5And whether they listen or refuse to listen—for remember, they are rebels—at least they will know they have had a prophet among them.

But when I give you a message, I will loosen your tongue and let you speak. Then you will say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says!’ Those who choose to listen will listen, but those who refuse will refuse, for they are rebels.

Then I said, “O Sovereign Lord, must I be defiled by using human dung? For I have never been defiled before. From the time I was a child until now I have never eaten any animal that died of sickness or was killed by other animals. I have never eaten any meat forbidden by the law.”15“All right,” the Lord said. “You may bake your bread with cow dung instead of human dung.” 

Lord God my Father,

Protect me from my rebellious nature, keep me close and focused on your Truth. Give me courage and strength to stand for your will no matter the cost to me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
