STEP ONE - WELCOME THE PROPHET
In order for city to receive God's blessing, she must first receive God's Prophet. [The measure with which you measure . . .] She cannot have an agenda of retaliation and expect to receive anything other than the same from God's hand: "Vengeance, saith the LORD, belongs to Me." But, when the city starts out with a welcoming attitude, the rest follows suit; whatever blessing God wills through the Prophet is bestowed upon the city. The blessing does not belong to the Prophet, it belongs to God, and He is never ever pleased with theft; especially when stolen from Him: Isaiah 61:8 (a) For I the Lord love justice; I hate robbery and wrong with violence or a burnt offering.
We don't always show up looking, or even acting according to man's expectations. God's ways are not like ours. The Prophets, messengers, disciples, however you choose to refer to us, oftentimes show up with the "appearance" of these:
Lunatic - John (Most beloved of Jesus)
Swindler - Matthew (Chief fund raiser)
Thug - Peter (Builder of God's Church)
Insecure crybaby - Jeremiah (Proven of God)
Stutterer - Moses (Leader of God’s chosen people)
Prostitute - Mary Magdalene (Deliverer of The Risen Savior's first message)

. . .and many others
Then there were these: Lowly, yet 100% diety, no place to lay his head, riding on a donkey, and turning over tables- that would be Jesus. Now comes this dark skinned sister, introvert with an attitude from that other Nazareth - that would be me. We don't get to make the choice; God uses whomsoever He chooses, for whatsoever pleases Him.
If you're waiting for a perfect 100% human Prophet to show up; you're going to be waiting a very, very long time. For no Prophet was ever perfect, save one; yet even He was seen of man as evil, and labled "false prophet." Man, quite simply, just plain gets it wrong sometimes. Therefore: 2 Corinthians 5:7 "For we walk by faith, not by sight."
To The Rebellious City:
The Lord rebuke you, and shame on you if you made me, or anyone else your idol. But God is not mocked, He knows that's just an excuse to act out and persecute. As a city, you no more made me an idol than you've heeded His Word: Rather, as He predicted, you refused to even receive or listen to me, let alone idolize me. God says "REBELLION" is your idol. Will you dare call Him a liar, AGAIN?
Ezekiel 18:30 "The upshot is this, Israel: I'll judge each of you according to the way you live. So turn around! Turn your backs on your rebellious living so that sin won't drag you down. Clean house. No more rebellions, please! Get a new heart! Get a new spirit! Why would you choose to die, Israel? I take no pleasure in anyone's death. Decree of God, the Master.
"Make a clean break! Live!"
