Now as I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground by each of the living creatures with its four faces. The wheels and the way they were made were like this: They looked like sparkling chrysolite. All four of them looked the same, like one wheel crossways inside another wheel. When they moved, they went in any one of the four directions, without turning as they went. The rims of the wheels were high and frightening and were full of eyes all around. When the living creatures moved, the wheels moved beside them. When the living creatures were lifted up from the ground, the wheels also were lifted up. Wherever the spirit would go, the living creatures would go. And the wheels were lifted up beside them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. When the living creatures moved, the wheels moved. When the living creatures stopped, the wheels stopped. And when the living creatures were lifted from the ground, the wheels were lifted beside them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. Now, over the heads of the living creatures was something like a dome that sparkled like ice and was frightening. And under the dome the wings of the living creatures were stretched out straight toward one another. Each living creature also had two wings covering its body. I heard the sound of their wings, like the roaring sound of the sea, as they moved. It was like the voice of God Almighty, a roaring sound like a noisy army. When the living creatures stopped, they lowered their wings. A voice came from above the dome over the heads of the living creatures. When the living creatures stopped, they lowered their wings. Now above the dome there was something that looked like a throne. It looked like a sapphire gem. And on the throne was a shape like a human. Then I noticed that from the waist up the shape looked like glowing metal with fire inside. From the waist down it looked like fire, and a bright light was all around. The surrounding glow looked like the rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day. It seemed to look like the glory of the LORD. So when I saw it, I bowed facedown on the ground and heard a voice speaking.

Tony Evans gives an overview of each book found in what is called "The Major Prophets" of the Bible. In this five-day reading plan, you'll learn about Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel and Daniel
Ezekiel is one of the more unusual prophets, and he brings to light some very interesting and revolutionary prophetic insights. We will look at some in this short series of reflections. Ezekiel, a major prophet, prophesied to Israel when he and they were in exile in Babylon - speaking of their past, about their present, and to their future.
Do you long to feel a closer connection to God? To discern His voice, experience His peace and live in His joy? We are not the first people to believe our doubts and doubt our beliefs when circumstances spiral out of control. Ezekiel’s prophecies paint a unique picture of revival– one sparked through people who seemed counted out, cast aside and disregarded. Invite God to fill you with fresh fire.
