“I will guard everything within the limits of my post…”

The Lord looks for those who will rebuild the walls of righteousness and stand in the gaps to prevent his wrath from coming on the people (Ezk 22:30). He did not find one in Ezekiel’s day. These people are rare who will live counter culturally. These people become brighter as their surroundings darken. These people resist peer pressure and stand for what is right when the whole world has gone wrong. They do so, not in self-righteousness, but in love for their fellow citizens. Like Moses, they intercede for a sinful people and continue to lead them to obey. Are you a rebuilder or part of the deterioration? Do you stand in the gap or are you oblivious to the threat of God’s impending judgment? Be a watchman on the wall (Ezk 3:17).
