Ezekiel: God who travels Chapter 27



Where did Evil come from?

 "I established You."


It has been impressed here in this Ezekiel verse that God established Satan not by grasping or ambition to gain its high place position in heaven. But "God gave" repeat that again, "God gave" Satan the great privilege of being established by God along with its gifts of beauty, wisdom, adornment, and music skills. 

How wonderful it is to be established by God. And yet as if God's work on establishing this still being not enough or still suffers inferiority and no contentment at all. After having it all, Lucifer his former name Son of the Morning, or his present name Satan still finds all of God's establishment not fulfilling at all. Clearly, this is having no peace at all.


Let's play it again, as if we were watching God in a distance murmuring these words: "I established you" & then what emotions should we expect God to display? Is it anger? Dismay or wrath? All of the above?


This might be the feeling and emotion of these 3 words if we have to reread and understand. There is that deep disgruntled God for this being, a deep confirmation of his authority to set up someone in a higher position but still covets the highest regard above Him all who created his being. God has felt, there is no gratitude or even a little goodness of what God did?


Say we ask, if God did not establish evil, then where did evil come from? I can only point out something like this...God did establish... but the "You" part is free of any outcome. And the outcome of You is the Satan himself where evilness may originate. But again, I can only interpret and believe it in my heart what the Holy Spirit's inner voice is saying that evil never came from God but it was the outcome of what God created or may have established in this 3rd word "You" which refers to Satan.


Remember as God recalls in this verse in Ezekiel, the action word "establish is in past tense form. I can only confirm that when, God did establish Lucifer, in its goodness God was innocent of evil and never had the intention of creating evil. It was God who established but never the evil in its Satan form. Satan evolved & became God's adversary in truth opposite to all of His goodness.
