CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Q celebrating birthday and wanted to reviewed Ezekiel 22:30. The context is the Sins of Israel, but the verse mentions the Lord “searching for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap…”. The text is directed at the Wrath of God, however the words struck me with vision 180 degrees as to what we should be in this life. F3 has been an example for me of good men who are brothers and lock shields to stand in the gap to keep evil at bay and look to God to guide our thoughts, our words, our steps and our hands to further His Will.
