Listen, all you victims of abuse today!
This is the message I felt to say…
Abuse leaves you all so battered and broken…
But this Mighty Word was previously spoken!
For I too felt like scattered old dry bones…
used and abused, torn apart, and alone.
But God had said, “Son of man, can these bones live?”
Then to Ezekiel, an order to prophesy, He did give.
“Prophesy to these bones and say to them,
‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord!
I will make breath enter you,
and you will come to life too.
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 again.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
So Ezekiel prophesied.
Then there was a noise, a sound of a rattle,
and the bones came together, bone to bone, no longer scattered.
and tendons and flesh appeared on them
and skin covered them,
but there was no breath in them.
Then God said, “Prophesy to the breath…
Prophesy!
Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain,
so that they may live again.’”
And as Ezekiel prophesied… breath entered them;
they came to life and stood up on their feet–a vast army.
I felt this call today…
To speak to the bones this way.
To all the abused and broken…
For these Words were previously spoken.
But I declare them again this day.
Arise dry bones to join His Army today.
For He breathes new life into you…
He will heal and restore you too.
For God brought new life to a valley of bones,
and He will bring new life to fight these wrongs.
He hears the cries of His children today,
and God is raising His Army to fight this battle His way!

I love Ezekiel! Thanks for posting, it was encouraging to me!
Thank you. Blessings to you!!
But we need to remember ‘For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.’ Too often religion takes up arms against our brothers.
Amen… That is right. It is a spiritual battle for the many souls held captive by the darkness and God is raising His army and will “fight this battle His Way” as I wrote. Thanks and many blessings to you!!
I love this story in the bible. Such faith and power in his words. It’s incredible to believe, but he who carries His Holy Spirit carries with him the same power and authority over all things. It’s our lack of faith and doubts that hold us back. We need encouragement like this to remind us of the power that has been invested in us through Jesus Christ. God Bless You!!!
Amen… You got it my sister in Christ! Many blessings to you
Reblogged this on The Abuse Expose' with Secret Angel and commented:
This is what came to me the other day and I wrote on ChristianBlessings. I felt the Lord tell me that I was once like old dry bones, but He has breathed new life into me and He is doing the same for others to raise up His Army. Nothing is impossible with God!!
Only God can raise the army! Let us arise in His Name! Amen!
Amen… 🙂
