Day 307 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE. Ezekiel has this wild vision with super complex and vivid images—a storm, creatures with four faces and wings, wheels within wheels, and above all, a throne with a figure glowing like fire. This figure is the glory of God, and He's commissioning Ezekiel to be a prophet. God warns Ezekiel that he's being sent to the Israelites who are stubborn and rebellious, but he must speak God's words to them anyway, whether they listen or not. God gives Ezekiel a scroll with sad words and tells him to eat it. It's sweet as honey in his mouth. Ezekiel is then filled with the Spirit and told to go speak to Israel. Hebrews 4:14-5:10 serves as a spiritual pep talk about sticking with Jesus because He's not just some high-and-mighty high priest, but one who gets us on every level. He's been through the wringer, too, but never messed up, so we should feel totally cool about being open with God, thanks to Him. Then it shifts to talk about every high priest being picked from among us humans, dealing gently with our mess-ups because they're no strangers to personal weakness themselves. And just like they didn't just waltz into the job, Jesus didn't either—He was chosen by God. His real street cred comes from how He handled suffering, which made Him the perfect leader, forever in the business of bringing us closer to God.

Day 306 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE. After the people turn back to God, He feels sorry for them. He promises to send lots of food and remove the scary locusts. God also says He'll make up for the bad years and send dreams and visions to people. But there's a big day coming where other nations will be judged for how they treated Israel. In the end, God's home, Jerusalem, will be a safe place and everyone will know that God is in charge. In Hebrews, even though God promised a restful place, some people didn't get there because they didn't trust Him. But we still have a chance. We should try hard to enter that peaceful place and not doubt like they did. God's word is powerful, and it can see deep inside us. Nothing is hidden from God; He sees everything.

Day 305 of the Holy Bible One Year CHALLENGE. There's a big locust invasion that's ruining all the crops. Joel tells the people that this is a wake-up call from God. Things are really bad, and even the animals are sad because there's no food. Joel urges everyone to fast, cry, and gather at God's house to ask for His help. In Hebrews, the writer talks about how Jesus is greater than Moses. Just like a builder is more important than the house he built, Jesus is more important than Moses. But people should be careful. If they don't believe and trust in God, their hearts can become hard and they might turn away from Him.
