Praying Scripture #15 -- Ezekiel 37:1-14 -- Breath of life for such dry bones!
Manage episode 432027103 series 3501107
Ezekiel’s vision and prayer conversation in Ezekiel 37 is about as close as the Old Testament gets to Easter. How do we pray for more life? Perhaps it begins by understanding that resurrection is the work of a force outside of ourselves. I think we could all agree that in death I am helpless, out of control and unable to change my circumstances. I cannot resurrect myself. Ezekiel’s prayer session begins and ends with the Words of God, but it’s ending looks forward to Easter’s beginning, as God says, "I will put my Spirit within you, and you shall live... Then you shall know that I am the Lord."
God says I will do it and when I do it, you will know that I am God. If you are in a dry bones season, this prayer is for you!
