GOD'S TRUSTED WATCHMAN

Memory Verse: Ezekiel 33:7. So, thou O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word of my mouth, and warn them from me.

The above is the word of God sent to Prophet Ezekiel. God set him as a watchman over Israel, to listen to the voice of God and to caution the inhabitants of Israel concerning every revelation or words the Lord passes through him. That was a heavenly assignment. Had Ezekiel relaxed and decided not to do what the Lord commanded him, the people would have fallen into multiple temptations. His ability to carry the word of God to the Israelites made them know the true intents of God for their lives; they knew whether their present lifestyle was pleasing to God or not; they knew what they needed to correct.

Brethren, Ezekiel is no more, therefore, God has set me and you over every believer and unbelievers; to send God's message, let them know of God's intent for them and how they can also become the children of God.
To our fellow Christians, God has given us the responsibility to correct each other whenever we see that they are swaying from the truth, or for some reason, might be falling from the grace. We are the watchmen of God and must see farther than others do. We ought to guard ourselves with the truth; not selfishly keep the truth of salvation; __rather, we must announce to the ends of the world that God's heart beat is that, everyone be saved.

A watchman stays awake to fight every unpleasant events.
God's watchman should be ready to propagate the word of God, both to his fellow Christians and to the world.

God has called you as His watchman;__ so stand up to the call,_ live for Him alone,_ spread His word,_ caution and win the ungodly and bring the backsliders back to Christ__ For God shall count you as a faithful servant.
