Ezekiel 22:30 – “And I searched for a man among them would build up the wall and stand in the breach before Me for the land, so that I would not bring it to ruin; but I found no one.”

Today, I pray for and expect the revelation of God’s grace, peace, power, purpose, and provision for each of us.   I expect divine encounters to be revealed today, including angels unaware and people who can further your work and walk.

The prophet Ezekiel was given a word of judgment and warning for the nation.  God sought even one person to be the Wall Builder and Gap Filler to preserve the nation.  Wow! God had proposed and planned judgment but sought for someone (just one person) who loved and cared enough to intercede for deliverance.  He was searching for something:

• One Person to build up the wall (become a spiritual covering). 
• One person to become a human wall between God’s wrath and the people. 
• One person who loved enough to do what could cost them their life. 

If God found One Person who would do that, judgment would be averted.   But He did not find even one!   Not even one loved enough and was willing to become selfless enough.   Jesus said, “When the Son of Man comes, will He find faith in the Earth?”  Will there be anyone who loves enough to act as a wall and stand in the gap to be a human shield?   Will there be any selfless people?

In 1 Corinthians 13, the Love chapter, it is clear that this is not only about human and romantic relationships.   It is reflective of the heart of God.   This kind of Love is totally selfless, and love gives of itself completely.

Many people attempt to make 1 Corinthians 15:10 the justification for spiritual inadequacy, “BUT by the grace of God I am what I am…”   That was not an excuse but a revelation of the current condition, not the finished product.   Paul said, “Although I’m not perfect, I continually seek to be.”  He was continually being transformed into the image of Jesus.

In 1 Corinthians 16:14, he summarizes it as follows: “Let ALL that you do be done in love.” The question that the Spirit of God asks is, “How much do you love?”  Love is an action word, not simply an emotion.   Love does something, not just says something!

Impending judgment is hovering over our world.  It is impossible to miss that reality.  The question is: “How much do we love?”  Can we go about our business, live unaffected lives, see the eternal destruction, and not act?

I am crushed personally because of my negligence in this.   My selfishness is condemning me.  My infrequent intercession, while multitudes are standing at the gate of destruction, is overwhelming.

My prayer is: “Lord, forgive me for not being that one who builds the wall and fills the gap.  Help me to become consumed with compassion and commitment to be the volunteer You desire and need.  Help me to have the heart You have, that None be Lost!  Amen!”

If this resonates, receive it. Each of us has a sphere of influence and authority, and we need to let Love flow unconditionally!

Have a fantastic day in Jesus!
