Heaven Land Devotions - The Marked People of God

Joanie Stahls Field Notes

I was preparing for a message when all of a sudden it felt as if a wind came in and blew it all away. What seemed like something to share became empty.

I realized that my heart was not in it and I hated the way it felt. I was happy to scrap it.

As I sat there I began to think of the any-minute-now war about to break out between Israel and Iran. Understanding this war is going to be catastrophic. I then began to feel my heart moving and stirring.

I thought about that verse in Ezekiel 4:9: "And the Lord said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof."

That word "mark" leaped out at me and who it was that were marked. It was the men that did "sigh and cried" over what they were seeing happen to their beloved nation.

These few men were noted by God and made sure a mark was put upon their foreheads and they escaped.

Those that spend time in private prayer are those who sigh and cry and God marks them out. I have a saying, "If it does not move you it will not move God."

Things we are expecting to see in Israel's war with Iran will move your heart deeply. Things in this nation and in your life that move your heart will move you in the heavens. Seek to be a marked man or woman of God especially now.

"The greater the difficulty to be overcome, the more will it be seen to the glory of God how much can be done by prayer and faith.” ― George Muller
