[S] Ezekiel 14:14 --
14 even though these three men, Noah, Daniel and Job were in its midst, by their own righteousness they could only deliver themselves," declares the Lord GOD.
[O] Subsequent verses explains further about how these three righteous men would not even save their family in this land corrupted against God. I thought Noah's days were bad enough and yet he saved his family members, so the landscape has worsened to the max by this time of Ezekiel. This is more of a reflection but I wonder where our current landscape compares to it although it could not be an apples-to-apples comparison I won't be surprised if we're not far (or exceeding) from it.
[A] As the US Presidential election is coming up soon and we're hearing about a lot of promises from the candidates for the future of this nation, I am going to pray that despite their religious faith, God would move their hearts to do some housecleaning so this nation would draw closer to His ways of living. I will also take more ownership of studying their values and visions to cast my carefully discerned vote in November.
[P] Dear Father, please save this nation from the ugliness depicted in this passage. Please set the right leader who will carry the people of this great nation to do great things for You. In Jesus' name. Amen.
