God Brings Dead Things to Life
Backgrounder on Ezekiel 37-39:
In a vision told with vivid details,
that u can see the bones moving,
Ezekiel announces Israel’s future
rebirth. Reassembled with God’s
breath of life, the bones become
the new Israel, more glorious
and powerful than ever before.
Then in a second vision, Ezekiel
sees the revived nation utterly
destroy its last foe – the mysterious
Magog – after which God is
acknowledged by all nations as
the mighty and undisputed Victor.
Lord, You Can Revive All Things:
Prophesy to these (dry) bones…
This is what the Sovereign Lord
says to these bones: I will make
breath enter you, and you will
come to life… So I prophesied as
He commanded me, and breath
came into them, and they lived
and stood upon their feet,
an exceedingly great army…
Then you shall know that I am
the Lord (Ezek 37:4-13). Amen.
Lord, there are areas of my life
that seem dead to me; and they
need a new infusion of Your life.
There are dreams I have had
that seems as if they have died
because it’s been a long time and
still they have not been realised.
I know if You can make dry bones
into a vast army, then You can
bring life to anything worth praying,
no matter how dead it seems.Amen
Lord, You will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
You work in ways we cannot see
You will make a way for me
You will be my guide
Hold me closely to Your side
With love and strength
for each new day
You will make a way,
You will make a way.
By a roadway in the wilderness,
You will lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and Earth will fade
but Your Word will still remain
And You’ll do something new today
Oh, God will make a way…
You will make a way. Amen.
