What Does It Mean To Be A Man Of God?
Contributed by Chris Swanson on Apr 20, 2023 (message contributor)
Summary: The people of Israel had become careless and complacent. God called a man from a small country town to prophesy judgment and preach repentance. This man submitted to God's call to go and prophesy unto Israel.
God calls all into the ministry in some form or fashion. We all can witness in one way or another. In the book of Joshua, God used Rahab, a harlot, to aid the men in accomplishing their tasks. She ended up being in the lineage of David. (Joshua 2:1, 2:3, 6:17-25; Matthew 1:5; Hebrews 11:31; James 2:25)
Jeremiah 1:7, But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
Ezekiel 2:3-4, And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even unto this very day. For they are impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD.
Are we truly obeying God's Word?
