My God, Thank You For Warning Me
August 12 Scripture Meditations Based on Ezekiel 33-39
Key Verse – Ezekiel 33:8 When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR WARNING ME
Thank You for warning me against bad motives
By Your rebukes’ directives
To guard me from worldly incentives
Never to push me toward humanism’s sedatives.
Thank You for warning me against evil deed
By Your chastisements, smiting wickedness’ seed
To drive me toward good works indeed
Never to tolerate me of selfishness’ greed.
Thank You for warning me against fruitless goals
By Your instructions’ roles
To protect me from temptation holes
Never to bring me into haughtiness’ poles.
Thank You for warning me against destructive perversion
By Your truth’s proclamation
To cleanse me from blasphemous abomination
Never to leave me around idolatry-seduction.
Thank You for warning me against worthless aims
By Your standards’ flames
To pull me away from shameful blames
Never to allow me lingering in earthly carnal games.
Thank You for warning me against wrong stewardship
By Your authority’s leadership
To uphold me for joyful worship
Never to neglect me in prayer’s fellowship.
Thank You for warning me against hypocritical sacrifices
By Your mercy’s graces
To keep me within ministerial services
Never to forsake me in sins’ curses.
