R³ Devotional - Day 242

R³ Devotional - Day 242 - Ezekiel 13

By: Anderson Baptist Church

Ezekiel’s prophetic ministry is a treasure chest of theological depth and practical insight—especially for times like these. Ezekiel obeyed God’s commands even when they seemed bizarre or costly. Ezekiel 13 is a powerful rebuke against false prophets—those who speak from their own imagination rather than divine revelation.

“Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing” v.3
“They prophesy out of their own imagination” (v.2)
“They say, ‘Peace,’ when there is no peace” (v.10)
“I am against your magic bands… you hunt people’s lives” (v.20)
“Because you disheartened the righteous with lies… I am against you” (v.22)
“You will know that I am the LORD” (v.23)

Real Life Principles:
  • God’s Word prevails
  • Accountability is inevitable
  • God opposes manipulation
  • False peace is dangerous
  • Truth must be spoken, not imagined
  • Discernment over charisma

Relevant Life Applications:
  • Train leaders to test teachings against Scripture, not personality or popularity.
  • Anchor sermons and devotionals in biblical truth.
  • Guide accountability conversations—don’t whitewash brokenness.
  • Address spiritual manipulation with clarity and compassion in restoration processes.
  • Reinforce that leadership carries weight—truth-telling is essential for healing.
  • Encourage trust in God’s justice and sovereignty

Ready Action Steps:
Follow Jesus and His Word above all.
