Have you ever learned something from past history? The prophet Ezekiel in chapter 20 gives a unique and inspired look at Israel's exodus experience from God's vantage point. It is designed to remind Israel of their past. It is worth reading again to understand God's perspective. It also gives us a perspective on how God responds to us. As always, He conclude chapter 20 on a positive note. Stating He will restore Israel one day, but for now He is drawing His sword.
The story of Oholah (Samaria) and Oholibah (Jerusalem) depicts how unfaithful these two nations have become. Their sins both politically and religiously break the very heart of God.
It is important for us to think about our unfaithfulness to God and how it affects Him. Have you broken the heart of God? If so, repent. He is always willing to forgive.
