Ezekiel 33:9

The role of a watchman is vital to the spiritual health of the church, yet it is one that is frequently thankless and often met with resistance. Do you feel God calling you to lookout for others? Is He prompting you to warn them of impending or potential dangers? Are you prepared to be unpopular? If so, God just might be planning to use you as a watchman.

Prophets take the limelight as kings flail, warning leaders and people of God’s impending judgment. For every true prophet there are several quacks pushing people back into delusion and complacency. Similar to our current day scenario - false teachers abound attracting millions. The few who stand for truth may appear victims but in God’s power are victors and sway the future. Exciting glimpses of the future are also touched upon.
