Ezekiel 37:5 This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life”

I’ve often wondered what went through Ezekiel’s mind when God asked him, “Can these bones live?” It must have seemed hopeless. Nothing is as hopeless as a bone yard.

Ezekiel’s only answer was, “You know.”

Ezekiel’s sense of reality was limited. What mankind experiences is real, but it is still limited. God’s reality is infinitely greater than ours

He is not hindered by the limited perception of humanity. The bone yard seemed hopeless to Ezekiel, until God got involved. God can and will infuse new life into any situation if we only believe.

We cannot be discouraged by what appears to be a hopeless situation. We must have faith in God. Faith opens the door to the greater reality, a reality augmented by God’s direct involvement.

God involves himself in unseen ways. While God’s breath was invisible, the result was obvious when the bones came back to life.

Prayer Suggestion: Lord, breathe fresh insight, encouragement, and creativity into me today.
