Ezekiel's Watchman Call
00:02:28

|
| Jennifer, how were you called to be a watchman? | |
| All right. | |
| Let me give you the short version. | |
| I was at a church. | |
| They used to go to Nicaragua every year to do missions. | |
| And I asked, I was so excited. | |
| I said, can I go? | |
| Can I go? | |
| And they're like, of course. | |
| I got there. | |
| I'm like, can I go home, please? | |
| I mean, it was so hot. | |
| So, I've been on those missions trips many times. | |
| Oh, my God. | |
| I was starving. | |
| I was exhausted. | |
| I was doing the media. | |
| Yes. | |
| And I came in really like we were staying on the side of an orphanage, and we had like bunk beds, and there was like a hot tin roof, and there was a mosquito net, and you could hear the iguanas, you know, going over there. | |
| I'm like, oh, my God, please get me out of here. | |
| You know, rapture me, get me out of here. | |
| And the Lord, I was exhausted. | |
| And the Lord said, get your Bible. | |
| And I'm like, Lord, you know, I'm exhausted. | |
| He said, get your Bible. | |
| I said, yes, Lord. | |
| He said, get your flashlight. | |
| Everyone else is asleep in the whole dorm. | |
| And I began to read. | |
| I began to open my Bible and he said, go to Ezekiel 3. | |
| And I'm like, I'd never even read Ezekiel. | |
| I was two years old in the Lord. | |
| I mean, you know, you're not reading that kind of thing. | |
| Yeah, what is this Ezekiel? | |
| It's that wheel within the wheel. | |
| And so I read Ezekiel 3 and it says, you know, warn them for me. | |
| If you warn them and they turn from their wicked ways, then they'll be saved. | |
| But if you don't warn them, the blood will be on your hands. | |
| And the fear of the Lord just rested upon the spirit of the fear of the Lord. | |
| I was shaking. | |
| And then the Lord said, now go to Ezekiel 33. | |
| And I'm twisting over the pages. | |
| And it essentially says the same thing. | |
| It was a double confirmation. | |
| Amazing. | |
| The Ezekiel 33 message, the blood on our hands. | |
| God is always looking for someone who is brave and bold enough to speak forth the truth to a people who have no willingness to hear it. | |
| But at least God gives them the chance. | |
| That's why the warning, the watchman, is so important. | |
| God is trying to wake up the church. | |
| He's trying to wake up the world. | |
| And the watchman may be persecuted, but it is worth the price because in heaven, I'm telling you, the eternal rewards for the watchman intercessor are great. | |
| Amen. | |
| Amen. | |
| So how does a watchman get a higher perspective? | |
| I call it building towers of prayer. | |
| And so it all starts with prayer. | |
| You know, it starts with prayer. | |
| It ends with prayer. | |
| Our whole entire relationship with the Lord is predicated on prayer. | |

Wings Like Eagles

|
| That's our communication with him. | |
| That's our lifeline. | |
| And so we need to sit and wait upon the Lord. | |
| I love what Cindy said when I was talking with her. | |
| I was with her at the Deborah's United conference. | |
| And she says, you know, anymore, she says, I just go in my prayer closet and I just wait. | |
| I don't even pray. | |
| I don't ask. | |
| I just wait upon the Lord. | |
| And that's so difficult for so many people to do in our society because your phone is at Facebook and ding, ding, ding, ding. | |
| She says, I just wait on the Lord. | |
| And you ascend as you wait. | |
| You ascend as you pray. | |
| And you're able to get that bird's eye view. | |
| You know, the Bible says those who wait on the Lord, he'll renew their strength. | |
| They'll mount up with wings like eagles, right? | |
| And that mounting up with wings like eagles, the eagles a symbol of the prophetic. | |
| And so when we mount up with wings like eagles, we are gaining that overview. | |
