Ezekiel 37:1-14
"Then he said to me,'Prophesy to these bones and say to them,'Dry bones, hear the word of the lord! This what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones:I will make breath enter you and you will come to life. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the lord." - Ezekiel 37: 4-6
How many times did the word 'prophesy' appear in this passage?
SEVEN!
I have a tendency to say that "it's impossible" and to make negative statements that pretty much seal my fate. Whenever I face a difficult situation, like when I look at my dad, I really like to say ,"I don' t know. Die already.." And that pretty much becomes the motto of my life.
Even as I was reading ezekiel, God really reminded me to be that prophet of hope! To bring the dry bones to life, all I have to do is to prophesy, believing that God can work miracles.
MuSic pls... " I believe in miracles, where you from.. you sexy thing!!" (ok that was out of point)
Recently I've been trying to say " God I believe that things will work out in my family. I believe that my dad will reconcile with my mum. " It really took a lot of effort and plenty of 'dying to myself' to reach this stage.
"Then he said to me, " Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man.." - Ezekiel 37:9
So prophesy, daughters and sons, so that we might see the glory of the lord in our lives! Let the words that come out of our mouths, be a reflection of the abundunt blessings we know that God will provide.
"I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken and I have done it, declares the lord." - Ezekiel 37:14
