Some Golden Daybreak....The East Gate (10 of 11)
Series: Realms of Revival

Later, in Ezekiel 11: 22-23, Ezekiel again records the coming again of the Glory of God and again, it was at the East Gate. The East Gate of Jerusalem faced the rising sun. For years, graves have been dug with the foot of the grave facing the east. This has been true even of atheists graves.

The first name mentioned is Shem-a-iah, whose name means "heard of the Lord". The second name mentioned is Shech-a-niah, meaning "habitation of the Lord". When we have heard the sound, we will be headed for the habitation.

While the power of God's grace never needs maturing, the proclamation and operation of grace does. The word "fullness" means that while today is the operation day of grace, that when time ripens or matures, grace will be out operation. When grace ripens and reaches it's fullness, it will fall from the realm of time. Time is not a force that controls grace, but is a frame which God chooses to communicate grace in. A frame may house and contain a portrait, but it does not control the beauty, the benef ...
