Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. Ezekiel 3:17

Ezekiel was man sent as a missionary to his own countrymen. God told him that if Ezekiel were to go to a people who spoke a strange language they would listen to him but God wanted Ezekiel to warn the people of Israel of their need for repentance. It isn't easy being a missionary anywhere in the world. Some fields are definitely harder than others. However, one of the easiest things to do is to give money to foreign missions and forget that we ourselves are to be missionaries to our own people. It isn't an either/or command! We are to give so that the gospel is preached far away but we are also to tell others ourselves. Be the missionary God intended you to be! You are the Watchman who should be sounding the alarm in the hearing of your own people!

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
