Charles Spurgeon Commentary Ezekiel 36:37

"Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: For this, moreover, will I be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them: I will increase them with men like a flock." — Ezekiel 36:37 (ASV)

Thus says the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.

Take up this promise, members of this Church, and urge it before God that He would give us not few additions, but many, very many. I will increase them with men like a flock.

Thus saith the LORD GOD; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.

There must be the spirit of prayer and supplication poured out first. We will see Israel restored to her land when Israel is restored to the mercy-seat; and we will see great prosperity as a church, and the blessing of God will rest upon our nation, once God's people go up to the top of Carmel with their faces between their knees, and cry, and cry, and cry again, expecting that the heavenly shower will yet end this long drought of the curse, and the blessing will come. I will yet be enquired of by the house of Israel to do it for them.
