Day 247

Ezekiel 40:38-43:27. “Always Fulfilled”

         The visions God provided for His prophets varied in some degree as to their figurative or literal fulfillments, but their fulfillment itself was never in question.  Ezekiel had a vision of the Temple that contained incredible detail.  The only question that arises has to do with the time of its complete fulfillment.  Was it the Temple Zerubbabel should have built or a Temple to be built during the millennial reign of Christ?  However, there is also a symbolic possibility referring to the worship and reign of God (described as perfect honor and absolute holiness—43:9-12).
         How much faith do you have in the fulfillment of future events?  In hindsight we can observe the perfect fulfillment of hundreds of prophecies concerning Jesus Christ, but to look ahead can we believe every other prophecy will be perfectly fulfilled?  Prayerfully you answer a resounding Yes.  Rom. 15:4, “the Scriptures give us hope and encouragement as we wait patiently for God’s promises to be fulfilled.”  Rev. 10:7, “God’s mysterious plan will be fulfilled.”  Rev. 17:17, “the words of God will be fulfilled.”
