I will bless my people and their homes
around my holy hill.
And in the proper season
I will send the showers they need.
There will be showers of blessings.
Ezekiel 34:26

Ezekiel 34:26
I myself will tend my sheep
and give them a place to lie down in peace,
says the Sovereign LORD.
I will search for my lost ones who strayed away,
and I will bring them safely home again.
I will bandage the injured and strengthen the weak…
For this is what the Sovereign LORD says:
I myself will search and find my sheep.
I will be like a shepherd looking for his scattered flock.
I will find my sheep and rescue them from all the places
where they were scattered on that dark and cloudy day.
I will bring them back home…
As surely as I live,
says the Sovereign LORD,
I take no pleasure in the death of wicked people.
I only want them to turn from their wicked ways
so they can live.
Turn!
Turn from your wickedness…
Why should you die?
Keep a close watch on how you live
and on your teaching.
Stay true to what is right
for the sake of your own salvation
and the salvation of those who hear you.
All honor and glory to God forever and ever!
He is the eternal King,
the unseen one who never dies;
he alone is God.
Amen.
Cling to your faith in Christ,
and keep your conscience clear.
For some people have deliberately violated their consciences;
as a result, their faith has been shipwrecked.
…pray for all people.
Ask God to help them;
intercede on their behalf,
and give thanks for them.
Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority
so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives
marked by godliness and dignity.
This is good and pleases God…
