      1. May God Strengthen Him,

        Ezekiel 3:7But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are impudent and hardhearted.

        See I Samuel 8:7

      2. God removing His Glory,

        Ezekiel 10:5And the sound of the cherubims’ wings was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh

        Judges 16:20 “And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him.

        Ezekiel 10:18Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house, and stood over the cherubims. 

        Ezekiel 11:23And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
