Let’s read the Bible: Ezekiel Chapter 37 Verse 1 to 12 in the King James Version (KJV).
“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 valleywhich was full of bones.” -"valley" is described as a plain.In the spirit, the Prophet Ezekiel was made to move around this wide Valley full of dry bones. These dry bones became corpses when he prophesied to the bones.
Verses 5-6: “Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall
live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord”
Look at the content of the prophecy.
Verse 8:”And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.”
There was still no breath in them.
Verse 9:” Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.”
He was told to prophesy the second part of it. The same word for breath is the same for wind or spirit.
Verse 10-11:”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. Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.”
The bones were symbolic for the whole house of Israel. Read verses 12 to 14: He is going to bring them back from Captivity into the Land of Israel; which was seemingly a hopeless situation.
Read verses 15-22: God is using symbolisms here for the nations of Israel and Judah. Let’s also Read 1 Kings Chapter
13 Verse 1 to 5 in the King James Version (KJV).
“And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the Lord unto Bethel: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense. And he cried against the altar in the word of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burnt upon thee. And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which the Lord hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out. And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Bethel, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.
The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given
by the word of the Lord.
This Prophet is prophesying to the Altar. Prophecy is not only to people. About 300 years later was when thisprophecy was fulfilled. They would have thought he was a false prophet. Different Kings came, died, and left before the prophecy came through. When you prophesy be patient Let’s also Read 2 Kings Chapter 23
Verse 15 to 18 in the King James Version (KJV). “Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he brake down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove. And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the Lord which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words. Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Bethel. And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria. King Josiah had been born at this time. He became King at the age of 8.”
He fulfilled the prophecy exactly the way it was said, three centuries later. These are very significant stories because first you see that the Bible tells us about Ezekiel being in the spirit and being shown things. The first thing is to see it in the Spirit. He is given words to speak. And he speaks them in the spirit. In the Natural, he is told what he saw in the spirit and what that signified. He is to prophesy to Israel. He then prophesied to them, having done that in the spirit. It is important to interpret correctly. They must be said exactly as said in the realm of the Spirit.
Another prophecy was to speak to an inanimate altar as he was instructed, having seen so in the spirit. What we see here is the power of God's word in the mouth of His prophets. God has put us here to keep the peace. We are to
keep the world the way God wants it. There are others who have a bad job of working with Satan to destroy the world. Our job is to give healing and blessings to the nations.
Bible says, "If they shall drink/assimilate/imbibe any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them". It is a sign of who you are. You are born again with the life and nature of God in you.
There are a lot of Christians who don't know this and because they don't know this, they live as humans and suffer human experiences. This is why spiritual growth and upbringing is necessary. They have to grow and be trained in the life and nature of God. Like learning to crawl, walk... You can't stay in a phase for too long. Suffering everything that humans suffer...
A time comes when you MUST change. A time comes when you DON'T GET SICK! No infections anymore. If you are not raised in the spiritual (the Pneumatical) how will you know it? There is a spiritual training that's necessary. Nothing builds you up like God's Word. The Word delivers to you an inheritance
Let's spend time to memorize and meditate on this verse: Let's spend time to memorize and meditate on this verse: And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.”
I affirm that my family is protected God’s plans are fulfilled in our lives. Glory to God! I affirm that my nation is not for sale; my nation belongs to God, therefore evil manipulations cannot thrive in my country. Hallelujah!
I affirm that my life is hid in Christ therefore no sickness, disease, or infirmity can attach itself to my body; I live in health always. Hallelujah!
WHAT TO DO
Prophesy!
You will speak forth the Word, and it will come to pass. You will speak words about your family, your city, the heavenlies, your atmosphere, the nations of the world.
Declare that the nations are not for sale but for Jesus!
