"I will put my Spirit in you, and you will live again and return home to your own land."
Ezekiel 37:14 (NLT)
Ezekiel chapter thirty-seven talks about the Valley of Dry
Bones. In this chapter, God asks Ezekiel an impossible question, “Can these
bones become living people again?”
Ezekiel answers with a great response. “O
Sovereign Lord, you alone know the answer to that.”
God acts to bring the bones back to life and promises to
bring Israel back to life by putting His spirit in them.
As a Christ follower, I experience seasons of dry bones where everything seems to have lost its zest, but God is faithful to me in those seasons. He fills me with His spirit reviving me. He stirs the flames, and a new burning for His Word and presence ignites inside me.
If you are experiencing a “dry bones” season, call out to
Father God and ask Him to revive your heart by filling you up with His Holy
Spirit. Then lift your heart in praise and sing to the One who can bring the
dead back to life.
He will meet your needs even in the season of dry bones and
will cause you to live again!
Father,
Meet me in my dry season. Your Word tells me that you
never leave me nor forsake me. So, I know You are with me every step of the
way. Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit and revive my fainting heart, so that
I may soar on wings like an eagle. In Jesus’ name, amen.
