The Lord Said: "I Know What You're Thinking..."

Ezekiel 11:5 And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and he said to me, “Say, Thus says the Lord: So you think, O house of Israel. For I know the things that come into your mind. 6 You have multiplied your slain in this city and have filled its streets with the slain. 7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: Your slain whom you have laid in the midst of it, they are the meat, and this city is the cauldron, but you shall be brought out of the midst of it. 8 You have feared the sword, and I will bring the sword upon you, declares the Lord God. 

God had been speaking through Ezekiel, giving picture after picture of the judgment that was awaiting Jerusalem and Judea for their idolatry, immorality, irreverence, and disobedience.  They continued stubbornly despite all the warnings He had given.  Like Jesus when He walked on earth, God knew what was in the heart of man. He knew what people were thinking, the ways they were conniving to figure out a way to do anything but repent.  Mankind has not changed. We are so prone to try to find ways other than God's way to do what is right and be right with Him.  God knows what we're thinking, and it's not right.
