God Speaks
If you truly want to hear God speak to you, keep praying and reading His word. Every time I am in prayer I hear the Holy Spirit speaking to me. I have now learned to listen when I hear Him speaking in my spirit. I don’t know why I am surprised when He speaks right in the middle of worship because scripture teaches God inhabits the praise of His people.
The other morning, I was praying about all the things I had to do on Sunday when I heard the Holy Spirit say, “The dry bones that I showed Ezekiel are all the dead, dry things in your life”. I went “Wait, hold on, what!!!” He said, “Do what I told Ezekiel to do and speak to the dryness in your life. Everyone has a valley of dry bones. All they need to do is speak to it with the authority and power I have given them.”
Yes, that is exactly what the Holy Spirit does. He brings you words of comfort and direction when you least expect it. I love that, because it points straight back to His word. “Do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6, NKJV). As I acknowledged God, He gave me direction on my path. Before I started praying, the song “Anthem” by Todd Delaney rang in my spirit and I began to sing it as best I could. God reminded me of what that song was truly saying.
He has paid our debt. He was raised from the dead. He is alive. He has all power. We are free, His blood covers our sin and He is in charge. Ask for whatever you want according to His will and speak with His authority in the name of Jesus and it is done.
I encourage you to read Ezekiel 37:1-14 which I have included below. Ask God to teach you how to speak to the dry bones in your life. Right them down and pray over them as He instructs and watch what appears to be dead around you come to life. Amen!
The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.” Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath[a] enter you, and you will come to life. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’” So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them. Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army. Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’” Ezekiel 37:1-14, NIV
