Speak the truth


 

 

 

Speak only the truth. Truth sets you free. Importantly the truth must come from Yahuah.

Many will not like hearing the truth, and reject the truth like it occurred with Ezekiel when he spoke to the people.

Yahuah tells Ezekiel to go to his people (Israel), not to other nations but to his people and speak His Words so they can repent and turn back to Him.


 











Ezekiel 2:3-4 And He said to me, “Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Yisra’el, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against Me. They and their fathers have transgressed against Me, until this day. “And the children are stiff of face and hard of heart to whom I am sending you, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus said the Master Yahuah.’

Ezekiel 2:6-7 “And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them, nor be afraid of their words, though thistles and thorns are with you and you dwell among scorpions. Do not be afraid of their words or discouraged by their looks, for they are a rebellious house. “And you shall speak My words to them, whether they hear or whether they refuse, for they are rebellious.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yahuah warns Ezekiel not to be afraid of speaking the truth even though he will be in the midst of people not liking what is been said. They will reject, ignore and give him dirty looks but this must not stop him from speaking the word of truth. Yahuah says speak My words, weather they will hear and do them or weather they refuse to hear the words, you speak them anyway.

These words are meant for us as well. Are we going to hear them or are we going reject them? It is a choice we must make.

Ezekiel 2:8-10 “And you, son of man, hear what Iam speaking to you. Do not be rebellious like that rebellious house, open your mouth and eat what I am giving you.” And I looked and saw a hand stretched out to me. And see, a scroll of a book was in it, and He spread it before me, and it was written on the inside and on the outside. And written on it were lamentations and mourning and woe.

Yahuah gave Ezekiel all the knowledge of His words to speak to the people. Ezekiel was a true believer by studying, accepting and living in the word of truth. He was a priest, a prophet and a watchman.

We also can have this knowledge of the truth. It is our own choice if we want to walk in His truth.

Ezekiel 3:2-3 And I opened my mouth, and He fed me the scroll.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ezekiel wanted the words of truth which filled him up like sweet honey. He heard and he did the words by walking in them.

How do we receive these same words that will fill us up like sweet honey? By Yahuah’s Ruach will we receive the truth.


 

 








Ezekiel 3:4-8 And He said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Yisra’el, and you shall speak to them with My words. “For you are not sent to a people of foreign speech and of difficult language, but to the house of Yisra’el, not to many people of foreign speech and of difficult language, whose words you do not understand. If I had rather sent you to them, they would have listened to you. “But the house of Yisra’el is going to refuse to listen to you, for they refuse to listen to Me. For all the house of Yisra’el are hard of head, and hard of heart. “See, I shall make your face as hard as their faces and your forehead as hard as their foreheads.

As watchmen, we must speak the words of Yah that is given to us through scripture. By His Ruach can we speak the words of truth. Be firm when speaking the word of Yah as Ezekiel was instructed to be firm and not to be afraid or to be intimidated.
