Come AliveSample
SPEAK AGAIN
Over the past few days, we have been speaking about breath and its important role in life. For life to be sustained, it is vital that breath be available.
Notice how in verse eight it says the bones, flesh and sinew all joined and even the skin covered the bodies but there was no breath in them. Firstly, God told Ezekiel to prophesy to the bones. Now he says in verse nine to prophesy them to breathe.
Once again, Ezekiel does as he is commanded and speaks again.
Maybe you tried it once, and it didn’t work. You put all of your hope into declaring the word of the Lord into your dead, dry and dusty situation. Maybe there is something you have been speaking into but there is still no life.
SPEAK AGAIN
PROPHECY AGAIN
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
If you haven’t seen it yet, and there is no breath or life, keep speaking. Hold onto faith for our God is a God of miracles.
ACTION
What have you given up on after 'trying'? Maybe it’s a spouse who hasn’t been to church in 20 years. Speak again. Maybe it’s a health issue and you knew you were going to be healed but have not seen the miracle yet. Speak again. Maybe your business just won’t gain traction and you know it will be a blessing to the kingdom; speak life and speak it again!
PRAYER
Lord, I pray you would cause life to come into the situations that I have given up on. Reignite the hope within me that has been lost. Secure my anchor to you. I pray for the loved ones that are far from you, I pray for a financial breakthrough and I pray for healing in the name of Jesus. I will pray today, I will pray tomorrow and I will continue until I see a breakthrough. I will speak again! Amen.

Join Pastor Andrew Cartledge as he explores the Valley of Dry Bones. God commands the prophet to speak to what's dead, dry, and destroyed for Israel and see it returned to a mighty army. What is dead, dying, or on the edge of despair in your life? I believe as we study this passage together, we will see God come alive in your heart and see your spirit renewed!
