Death To Life I
“Son of man, these bones are the entire community of Israel. They keep saying, “Our bones are dry now, picked clean by scavengers. All hope is gone. Our nation is lost.” Eze.37:11 [Voice, emphasis added]
Many times, we find ourselves in situations that can best be described as a dry bone situation. Some of us are far gone in that spectrum as it were. The situation is dry, dead, forgotten, and scattered. On the other side is the situation that is filled with life and abundance. And everyone is somewhere on this spectrum. That situation you are faced Read the rest of this entry
God Is Saying
“For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven” Ps.119:89 [KJV]
What God is saying is two fold; there is The Written and The Prophetic. The Word of God is settled in heaven. What God has said concerning your promotion is settled! What God has said concerning your marriage is settled! What God has said concerning your finances is settled! Search the scriptures to see what God is saying and has settled in His written Word about you.
Fact Not Truth
“…Prophesy to these bones. Tell them to listen to what the Eternal Lord says to them…” Eze.37:4 [VOICE].
The question you and I must answer is, what is God saying? Some people are so logical they can think God out of their lives. I am not saying we should not use our brains. We are intelligent people and we cannot do what we are doing if we are not intelligent by the grace of God. But when the rubber meets the road, what matters is not what your logic is saying, it is what is God saying. Do not use logic to eradicate God from your life. What is God saying? It is not even what “reality” is saying. I have heard folks repeatedly say, let us face reality. And I say no! We will face the Read the rest of this entry
Get Up And Speak!
“…Prophesy to these bones. Tell them to listen to what the Eternal Lord says to them…” Eze.37:4 [VOICE].
Every move of God is preceded by a sound. You can have the prophetic Word but nothing happens until you speak it. Everything will wait until you speak. You have to get up and speak. The story is told of a couple who had been married for years and had children. The man was doing well and so was the woman. But the man’s mother brought him a new wife from the village. She told his wife that she had done well but her son needs fresh blood. The man claimed to be faultless in the matter and he took his mother up on the offer. It is sad but some men are just very Read the rest of this entry
Voice Activation
“Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to these bones and say, ‘Dry bones, listen to the word of the Lord!” Eze.37:4 [emphasis added].
“The earth was completely empty. There was nothing on the earth. Darkness covered the ocean, and God’s Spirit moved over the water. Then God said, “Let there be light!” And light began to shine” Gen.1:2-3 [ERV]. What if God had not said anything? The Power of God would still be there but nothing would have happened. Even though the Father, the Spirit and the Word were present at creation, nothing happened until God spoke. My point is this, you need to speak God’s prophetic Word into that situation. What prophetic word you ask? Your prophetic word is that Read the rest of this entry
Speak The Word
“The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Then God said, “let there be light,” and there was light” Gen.1:2-3 [emphasis added]
#2. Speak His Prophetic Word. I need to do my part to unleash the Power of the Holy Ghost to do that which I cannot do. Once I am aligned with God, the next thing I need to do is speak His prophetic Word. “Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to these bones and say, ‘Dry bones, listen to the word of the Lord!” Eze.37:4 [emphasis added]. He did not say think, He did not say imagine, and He did not say mutter. You can have a prophetic message from God, but until you speak it nothing happens.
Big Picture
“Then he asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?” Eze.37:3 [emphasis added]
Looking at the story of Ezekiel, he was put in a very interesting situation. We have the privilege of reading Ezekiel 37 but Ezekiel did not have the privilege of reading it. We have seen the whole story and we can tell the dry bones will live. But Ezekiel was right in the middle of the story and that is how some of us feel right now. Just step back from your story and read the whole story, the dry bones will live again. “The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you” Rom.8:11 [emphasis added]. Read the rest of this entry
Re-Position
“Then he asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?” Eze.37:3
To unleash the Power of the Holy Spirit, to unleash the Spirit of God in our favour, there are two things that you and I must do.
#1. Align With God. To unleash the Power of the Holy Spirit in your favor, you need to align with God. You have your own ideas; agreed. Some people even have their own idea of how God should be God. They look at how the whole world is and say, God, if I were God I can do a better job. Arrogance! You think you are better than God? Align with God, that is the first thing you need to do. And I will show you in Scripture.
The Wind
“The Lord took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lord…” Eze.37:1
Yesterday we put to rest the false thinking that the problem is the problem. The problem is not the problem. The problem is your capacity. So I pray again, that the God of heaven will increase your capacity on all fronts, in Jesus Name. So stop blaming the adversity and start building your strength. Start building your strength spiritually. Spiritual exercises [fasting, prayer, vigils] are strength builders. However, when it comes to the supernatural, while you must play your part, your strength will not be enough. Stay with me; we are taking this to another level.
Your Capacity
“He was the one who prayed to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and expand my territory! Please be with me in all that I do, and keep me from all trouble and pain!” And God granted him his request” 1 Chro.4:10
Yesterday, we established that the problem is not the adversity because “…God is faithful who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape…” 1cor.10:13 [NKJV]. What am I saying? I am saying that the problem is not the adversity; the problem is your capacity.
When I was in secondary school, I was very playful. When we were given assignments, I always had the mind to do Read the rest of this entry
