WALL
Today's reading: Ezekiel 40-42

"So the area was 875 feet on each side with a wall all around to separate the holy places from the common." Ezekiel 42:20 NLT

Wall-a high thick masonry structure forming a long rampart or an enclosure chiefly for defense; a masonry fence around a garden, park or estate; a structure that serves to hold back pressure (such as from water or earth).

Walls are in the news these days.

I'm not sure what your stand is on the one the media constantly talks about, but there is one I believe we need to agree on as Christians.

It's a wall we build to keep unholy, sinful, ungodly things out of our lives.

This kind of wall signifies the line we will not allow ourselves to cross in order to maintain godliness and Christlikeness.

Some of my walls may have to be built higher than yours in regards to certain temptations and lures. A few of my walls have to be built tall enough to not even allow my mind's eye to see what's on the other side. A few of my own personal walls aren't as high, more like curbs, to remind me of their presence.

Yours may look different than mine.

The thing is, we all need walls to separate the common from the holy.

Let's check our walls for gaps.

Inspect our walls for breaches.

Investigate our walls for ones that need fortified, added to or begun.
