New Heart, New Spirit_25 Ezekiel 29:1-21Seven Descriptions of Coming Judgment (Part 1). Egypt is the seventh and final nation that Ezekiel pronounced God’s judgment upon. The prophet paid far more attention to Egypt than he did to any of the other nations. These messages were so important that Ezekiel recorded the date that he preached them except in one case 30:1. He probably did not record the date of the third message because he delivered it immediately after the second one. Remember that Ezekiel was giving these prophesies to the Jewish exiles and that news did not travel fast in those days.With God at work behind the scenes, the news would soon reach the Egyptians and other nations in the Middle East.God’s Word warns us. The Lord is going to judge every human being who has ever lived. He will judge us for our self-exaltation and disloyalty just as He judged the Egyptians. But He will also judge us for all the other sins we have committed. We will give an account for everything we have done, whether good or bad. Scripture declares that Jesus Christ has fulfilled the prophecies of the Righteous Branch, the promised Messiah and Savior of the world.The prophet added a word of promise for the Jews v. 21, assuring them that there would come for them a time of restoration when He would give them new strength (the budding horn) for their new challenges.Christ is our Righteousness. Christ is our Redeemer, Restorer, Protector, and Defender. Christ is our Wisdom, Understanding, and Strength.Christ is our Servant.
