Ezekiel 37:11-14 - 11 Then he said to me, “Son of man, these bones represent the people of Israel. They are saying, ‘We have become old, dry bones—all hope is gone. Our nation is finished.’ 12 Therefore, prophesy to them and say, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: O my people, I will open your graves of exile and cause you to rise again. Then I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 When this happens, O my people, you will know that I am the Lord. 14 I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live again and return home to your own land. Then you will know that I, the Lord, have spoken, and I have done what I said. Yes, the Lord has spoken!’”
I know we all remember the Valley of Dry bones over and over we have heard numerous messages and songs written about the Valley of Dry bones. This is an awesome and amazing story the Lord shares with us about each of our own restoration in this broken life we live in. all things are possible just as the Lord speaks it out as His will deems it so. All He does is for the Glory of His kingdom and for a teaching and learning opportunity for every single living person. This shows that not even death can keep us down if the Lord so desires for us to receive what He had given for us. He controls our outcome with his Glory not our enemies. We fall short and hand over our lives to the death at our door and the enemies lies confuse and confine us, even define us but the Lord is letting us know He has a plan for us to be given a fresh life even from death to be made new even from dry bones.
The Lord continues to let the people of Israel know about coming home and being led by one leader and not by many Shepperd's. The Lord is cleansing all plates. the people of Israel will be made whole and return to their lands and the people surrounding Israel will be taken out and swept up in one place and He even tells how their destruction will benefit Israel for the next seven years. Gog and its associates will forever be no more.
Ezekiel 39:25-29 - 25 “So now, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will end the captivity of my people[h]; I will have mercy on all Israel, for I jealously guard my holy reputation! 26 They will accept responsibility for[i] their past shame and unfaithfulness after they come home to live in peace in their own land, with no one to bother them. 27 When I bring them home from the lands of their enemies, I will display my holiness among them for all the nations to see. 28 Then my people will know that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them away to exile and brought them home again. I will leave none of my people behind. 29 And I will never again turn my face from them, for I will pour out my Spirit upon the people of Israel. I, the Sovereign Lord, have spoken!”
This is such a fantastic Love that the Lord has for His people that is clearly undeserved, but the Lord also brings in a new heart and a new spirit to fill His people to will and follow His directions. I am so thankful that the Lord has looked to each of us as a matter to be saved. Each and everyone of us He has a desire for. Each of us He personally knitted in our mothers womb. He gave and continues to give each of us our breath for life. we none deserve it and we none control it but we do get to choose Him just as He chose us. Thank you Father for your love for me!
Father Thank you for your love for me help me to give back to you and be obedient in this ol' body to continually receive the infilling of your presence and your word. Please let me continually give to you and give you all the glory you so deserve. In the holy precious gracious merciful amazing name of Christ Jesus, Amen!
