DDD: The Harlot Bride: God’s Grace, Our Loyalty

A Devotion for your drive into work: 

If God rescued, adorned, and loved us before we could do anything to earn it, why do we so quickly use His gifts for selfishness or compromise, instead of surrender and worship?

Pastor Brian Noble reviews Ezekiel 16, showing how Jerusalem was helpless, abandoned, and spiritually dead, yet God rescued her, entered into an everlasting covenant, and lavished her with royal blessing. Tragically, Jerusalem (and by analogy, believers) then played the harlot—forgetting her origin, devoting God’s blessings to idols, and losing sight of God’s calling. Yet God’s covenant endures; there is always a cycle of redemption and restoration for those who repent and return. The application is deeply personal and civic: do not cheapen God’s grace or use His blessings for unworthy ends. Instead, return to Him in humility, honor the work of Christ, and let every action in the public square be driven by loyalty and love for the Redeemer.
