PROPHETIC INSIGHTS FROM THE BOOK OF EZEKIEL FOR THIS SEASON ~ DAY 11
A few years ago, I did a detailed study in the book of Ezekiel. I’m going to be posting the prophetic insights from each chapter over the next little bit. If you want the full teaching, it’s available on my YouTube channel (link below).

I FELL ON MY FACE – HEART TRANSPLANT REQUIRED- EZEKIEL CHAPTER 11
We need a new heart.INSIGHTS:
1. He’s working in the midst of your captivity.
Remember the fiery furnace of Daniel 3 with Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego? They were cast into the fire bound (hand and foot presumably). When Nebuchadnezzar saw the fourth man in the fire, their hands and feet were loosed.
In the midst of fiery trial that we are in globally, he is working in the midst of our captivity. Watch and wait for what is about to transpire. We are being LOOSED in the fiery trial in the midst of captivity. We are not necessarily delivered FROM it. We are walking THROUGH it.
2. Obedience follows regeneration.
Obedience is not a precursor to our salvation. It’s the other way around. We have been given a new heart in Christ. This means we are regenerated. We are justified. “Just as if I never sinned.” Obedience flows FROM regeneration. We are obedient BECAUSE we are saved (regenerated). (I’m not speaking of the Spirit’s work of sanctification in us. That is a separate conversation.)
3. Have you had a heart transplant?
Have you been born again? Have you made Jesus both your Lord and Saviour? It is required. Why? Because judgement and wrath are coming in great measure on this earth. (Prophesied originally on August 14, 2021. We are in the birth pangs of this NOW.) We will be saved, however, IN the fire, if we are part of the remnant. The remnant are those who have had their heart of stone removed and replaced with a heart of flesh. This only happens when we are IN Christ.
4. He is simultaneously judging and restoring in the earth.
We want to be in a place of restoration and not under the judgement of God. In this chaotic time we need to be hidden in Christ in the secret place under the shadow of his wing. In this space we will be experiencing restoration while the rest of the world will be under judgement.
Do you have a new heart?
