John the Baptist & Dry Bones
I felt a strong pull to revisit Ezekiel 37.
I was reminded, or prompted, about this in a message from a friend.
The Army of Dry Bones has figured much in my writings, but The LORD keeps pointing me at it.
I was asking Him about various things when I caught a Vision of John the Baptist calling people to Repentance!
Then, in my spirit, I saw a link between the call to Repentance and the army of dry bones.
The more who repent, the greater the revived army!
I often feel like I’m like a one message mail man. The call to repentance is so deeply ingrained in my heart.
Yet, so too is the end time remnant army ingrained in me. My heart, my whole being, burns with the message of Repentance and Revival.
If I did not speak it out, then I have no idea what would happen to me as, by staying silent, I would be staying outside of God’s Will for me.
I cannot stay silent. I must stay within His Will and under The Blood of Christ.
So I asked The LORD about this link between John the Baptist and the Valley of Dry Bones.
His answer surprised me by its simplicity.
“The more you call for Repentance, and the more My People repent, the more I will water their Dry Land.
The more I water their Dry Land, the more healing comes.
The more healing comes, the greater the effect upon the dry bones in My Church.
So, in brief, the greater the Repentance, the more the dry bones of My Church will be Revived, and the greater and more powerful My Remnant Army will become!
I AM sending My Spirit initially to call these dry bones back to their first love — to remember the zeal of their youth.
Then He will baptise them anew, many for the first time, and they shall lay hands on the sick, they shall cast out demons, they shall raise the dead — but more importantly, they shall preach The Gospel, they will bring many into The Kingdom, and they will make disciples who will in turn make disciples!”
Then The LORD urged me to “keep on keeping on”, to continue to urge and encourage you all to keep praying, keep preaching the gospel, keep laying hands on the sick, keep raising the dead, keep casting out demons — but most of all to keep raising disciples who will raise disciples.
It’s all about the call to repentance, and prophesying to the bones and the breath in order to raise The Remnant Army from that Valley of Dry Bones!
Amen?
