Prophesy / Thought of the day 23 January 2013

The word of LORD came to me,again saying,

2 "Son of man,say to the prince of Tyre,'Thus says the LORD GOD:"Because your heart is lifted up,and you say,'I am a god,I sit in the seat of gods,in the midst of the seas,'yet you are a man,and not a god,though you set your heart as the heart of a god

3(Behold ,you are wiser than Daniel!There is no secret that can be hidden from you!

4 With your wisdom and your understanding you have gained riches for yourself,and gathered gold and silver into your treasuries;

5 By your great wisdom in trade you have increased your riches,and your heart is lifted up because of your riches),"

6 'Therefore thus says the LORD GOD:"Because you have set your heart as the heart of a god,

7 Behold,therefore,I will bring stanger against you,the most terrible of the nations;and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom,and defile your splendor.

8 They shall throw you down into the Pit,and you shall die the death of the slain in the midst of the sea.

9 "Will you still say before him who slay you,'I am a god ?But you shall be a man,not a god,in the hand for him who slay you.

You shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of aliens;for I have spoken,"says the LORD GOD.' "Ezekiel 28:1-10
