ANGLICAN DAILY FOUNTAIN FOR 10 AUGUST 2022 DEVOTIONAL

TOPIC: FORGETTING THE PAST SHAME

TEXT: Ezekiel 39:21-29(NKJV)

Have you ever considered how much past shame influences our current lives? It does not take an average human being very long to remember something they are ashamed of. The Israelites, both the Northern and the Southern kingdoms, went into captivity because of their iniquity (v.23). But their captors oppressed them beyond measure. In verse 21, God says He would set His glory among the nations (Israel’s captors) by executing His judgement upon them.

His purpose of doing this was to let the house of Israel know that God is the Lord their God; and to let other nations know that the Israelites went into captivity because of their iniquity, and not because those other nations had power over Israel (vv. 22-24). Verses 25-29 contain God’s redemption plans for His people. This will make them forget their past shame. Today many Christians are facing different kinds of sufferings and persecutions.

Some are suffering because of their sins, as we can see in the case of the Israelites; while some others suffer because of their faith in Christ. However, some sufferings are neither persecution nor punishment, but they are consequences of one’s actions. Let us return to God for He will surely put our shame behind us.

PRAYER: Almighty God, forgive me my sin and release me from my shame in Jesus’ Name. Amen
