Have you ever felt stressed? Maybe like you're at the end of your rope? Or even been in a situation that you thought had no solution and you felt hopeless?
Well, let me tell you that there will be mountains and valleys in life. Always.
In the Bible, God took Ezekiel to a valley where there were many bones. Imagine walking and you see a man speaking to bones on the ground. Uhm, weird right? This is exactly what God told Ezekiel to do; he was to tell the bones that God would give them breath and that they would come to life. As Ezekiel spoke this, the bones started coming together and began to rise like an army. (Ezekiel 37:4-7)
The reviving of the dry bones signified God’s plan for Israel’s future national restoration. (Ezekiel 37:11) Putting "breath" by God's spirit into the bones showed that God would not only restore them physically but also spiritually.
This story shows that the Israelites depended on God's power and not the circumstances of the people.
This story in the Bible can be you. Okay, maybe you're not a bone, but you are going through your own valley. Whether it be a situation you're in, or you feel hopeless, stressed, or even depressed , whatever it may be, just know that God will restore you and bring you back to life.
Jesus said, "Come to me I will revive you,I will heal you, I lift you up, I will satisfy the longing of your heart, and I will NOT reject you."
