And this is the basic law of the Temple: absolute holiness!

They must leave them in the sacred rooms and put on other clothes so they do not endanger anyone by transmitting holiness to them through this clothing.

Absolute holiness, So holy even the clothes worn must be changed to daily wear so the general public will not be harmed by His Holiness touching them.

Lord God, Purify me to the point I may be as absolutely holy, as holey as you are willing to make me. Use me for your purpose.
In Jesus name,
Amen

I will surely judge between the fat sheep and the scrawny sheep.

And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.

In Jesus name,
Amen

As surely as I live, says the Sovereign lord, I take no pleasure in the death of wicked people. I only want them to turn from their wicked ways so they can live.

They hear what you say, but they don’t act on it! 33But when all these terrible things happen to them—as they certainly will—then they will know a prophet has been among them.”

I know good, I know wrong. I want to do good but I struggle and often fall, in my actions and thoughts

Lord God,
Give me power over my rebellion, help me to surrender my will so I may serve you instead of my own stubborn, fallen way. It is for your glory I wish to live.

In Jesus name,
Amen

I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, while the arms of Pharaoh fall useless to his sides.

In Jesus name,
Amen

and you will be a symbol for these people. Then they will know that I am the lord.”

Lord God,
May I be a symbol for you, bold and willing to be used anyway you please.

For all people are mine to judge

They wouldn’t obey my regulations even though obedience would have given them life.

I belong to God, he is free to do as He pleases. May I repent of my desires that separate me from him and draw close to him, May I find Life in him.

Lord God,
I surrender to you, have Your way with me, destroy my sinful way and allow me to walk with you this day and forever.

In Jesus name,

False prophets and those who seek their guidance will all be punished for their sins.

You will see with your own eyes how wicked they are, and then you will feel better about what I have done to Jerusalem.

Stubborn keeps coming to mind, I read about my own nature and desire to live with compromise in my faith.

Lord God,
Help me to shed my own nature an take on yours.

In Jesus name,
Amen

they commit these detestable sins, leading the whole nation into violence, thumbing their noses at me, and provoking my anger?

Lord God,
I lift up this great nation which was made great in your blessings. May we submit to your authority again and live in your truth. May I be a reflection of your power alive in me and may the world find you thru my dedication to you.

In Jesus name,
Amen

But I am sending you to say to them, ‘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.

‘This is what the Sovereign lord says!’ Those who choose to listen will listen, but those who refuse will refuse, for they are rebels.

God’s truth and love is always present, it is up to me to want to hear it. whatever rebellion I have in me will block His message to me.

Lord God,
Bring me delivery from my own rebellious spirit, allow me to hear all you want for me to hear.

In Jesus name,
Amen

God allowed horrific things to happen to His people who He loved dearly. Their free will allowed them to choose to turn away from God and after generations of second chances he disciplined them.

Lord God,
Please expose my sin and give me power over it in your name. Discipline me, cleanse me from my ways so I may live in harmony with your desire for my life. May I serve you wholeheartedly.

In Jesus name,
Amen
