I PROPHESY LIFE

“The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.” Ezekiel 37:1-4

“So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.”

Ezekiel 37:7

God sets the prophet Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones (which represented the house of Israel) for one purpose—to prophesy life.

Ezekiel obeys the voice of God and speaks life to a valley full of dead bones. There was so much power and authority in his voice that everything dead in the valley came back to life.

Some time ago, the word of the Lord came to me and God said, “I am sending you to My people for the same purpose that I sent Ezekiel to the valley of dry bones. I am sending you to prophesy life.”

Just as Ezekiel prophesied life to a valley of dry bones. I prophesy life to you. That which is dead shall live again! I prophesy life to:

• Dead relationships

• Dead marriages

• Dead dreams

• Dead visions

• Dead prophetic words

• Dead finances

Live! Live! Live!

I prophesy life to:

• Dead churches

• Dead ministries

• Dead businesses

Everything in your life that has illegally been crucified or died a premature death will live again! I prophesy life! I prophesy life in the place of death, light in the place of darkness, joy in the place of sorrow, abundance in the place of lack, health in the place of sickness, rain in the place of drought. That which is dead will live again.

I prophesy life!

HAS IT REALLY BEEN DEAD TOO LONG?

You might be thinking, “Man of God, there is no way the thing in my life that is dead could ever life again. It has been dead so long. In fact, it has been dead so long, all hope is gone.”

Maybe there is something in your life that has been dead a long time. Maybe you have given up all hope of there ever being a resurrection. But God’s word to you is: There is nothing so dead that God cannot bring it back to life. There is nothing God cannot do. There is nothing too hard for the Lord!

“Is any thing too hard for the LORD?...” Genesis 18:14

VALLEY OF DRY BONES

Ezekiel 37

In Ezekiel chapter thirty-seven, the bones in the valley had been there for many years. In fact, the house(?) of Israel had been dead for hundreds of years. They were not just dead; they were very dead. They were not just dry; they were very dry.

“And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.” Ezekiel 37:2

These bones were so dead, so dry that when God asked Ezekiel if they could live again. Ezekiel responded by saying he could not answer that. He said,”God, You’re the only One that would know the answer to that question.”

“And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.” Ezekiel 37:3

But even though they had been dead for hundreds of years and were not just dry, but very dry, when Ezekiel began to prophesy, something happened. Things began to change. A miracle took place. There was a noise, a shaking, bones came together and when Ezekiel finished prophesying, a valley of dry bones had come back to life and become an exceeding great army.

“So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.” Ezekiel 37:10

Even though the bones were very dry and they had been dead for hundreds of years, whenever Ezekiel began to prophesy, it released life, and a valley of dry bones turned into a valley of life!

There is nothing so dead that God cannot bring it back to life. Regardless of how dead the thing in your life is, maybe you have given up all hope of ever experiencing a resurrection, but I prophesy change is coming! I prophesy life!
