Shepherds In Trouble

Ezekiel 34:1-4 (AMPC)

Ezekiel 34
1 AND THE word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them, even to the [spiritual] shepherds, Thus says the Lord God: Woe to the [spiritual] shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the sheep?
3 You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you kill the fatlings, but you do not feed the sheep.
4 The diseased and weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the hurt and crippled you have not bandaged, those gone astray you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought to find, but with force and hardhearted harshness you have ruled them.

In talking with a Pastor in The School Of Apostle and Prophets, he was telling me that The Lord has been Speaking to him about this prophecy made to the shepherds in Ezekiel 34:1-31.
I went to that chapter and started reading it... The Lord is not happy with the shepherds, and He said He was going to teach His People Himself... Because they are not taking care of His People and showing them His Way...

Because of this, the people scattered...
Ezekiel 34:5-8 (AMPC)
5 And they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild beasts of the field.
6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains and upon every high hill; yes, My sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth and no one searched or sought for them.
7 Therefore, you [spiritual] shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:
8 As I live, says the Lord God, surely because My sheep became a prey, and My sheep became food for every beast of the field because there was no shepherd—neither did My shepherds search for My sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves and fed not My sheep—

It is a sore source with The Lord even now if we the Believer’s Don’t let His Word be exalted in our everyday life...
