Standing in the Gap For God | Pastor Jon Rychener | 5 Things God is Looking For

In the Old Testament, God was looking for someone who would “stand in the gap” but found no one. But what does it mean to stand in the gap? And how do we stand strong when many around us seem to be falling away? Gather with us as Pastor Jon dives into part 3 of our series.
“What are you looking for?” Have you ever been asked this question? Maybe it was a friend wondering what qualities you were looking for in a future special someone, a mentor helping you to discern what you want in a job, or even a salesperson in a department store-odds are we have all thought about certain things we’re looking for. But have we ever thought about what God’s looking for? In multiple places throughout the Bible, it says that God is looking for certain attributes, qualities, and attitudes in his people. What are they? Join us for this series as we take a look.

(Stand in the Gap)
In the King James Version of the Bible in the Book of Ezekiel chapter 22,
God became very angry with a tribe of people that lived in the land. He had provided them with a very wholesome life. On this visit, He observed this tribe had developed a conspiracy throughout the land:
They had taken treasure and precious things, the ministers of the time had violated His laws and profaned His holy things, they put no difference between the holy and profane, even He was profaned by them, they had gotten dishonest gain, their vanity was out of control, they exercised robbery beyond measure, and most of all was their (DIVINING LIES)!!
God said: “I sought for a man among them, to stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it, but I found none.” “Therefore I poured out mine indignation upon them.” It is not too late to retrieve yourself. Step up to the plate, take your constitution back. Declare yourself:
