Location and TimesEzekiel 2:5 And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house,) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.
God tells Ezekiel to go preach to a nation that doesn’t want to hear him. They are rebellious. They will not hear. They will continue to do as they have done in the past. God is going to judge them.
Ezekiel will not be judged by the results that he produces but by his obedience. He is to go preach faithfully.
God knows that there are other places that would have heard gladly. He still sends Ezekiel here.
He wants them to know that they have had a man of God among them. He wants them to know that He is still preaching to them.
I want to be His man too. I want to preach even if the country as a whole does not respond. I want them to know at least that they have had a man of God among them!
