Honey

Word of God in the mouth of the prophet. Sweet to the taste. Like honey. 

So says Ezekiel. David. And the apostle John. 

Word of God, eaten. By Jeremiah.

The words He gives sometimes hit strong with judgment. Jarring. 

But even there, sustaining. Healing. 

In a world that groans to be made right again.

Declaration

Over and over. Ezekiel repeats the phrases. 

“The word of the Lord came to me.”

“This is what the Lord God says.”

“This is the declaration of the Lord God.”

A rhythm. Keeping the Lord prominent. Essential. To all the prophet pens on the page.

The word of the Lord came to Ezekiel.
