Dreams that are Dry Bones

[Lewis Turner]

It seems that sometimes our dreams seem like Dry Bones.  Take a minute and listen to this Prayer Minute.  The text is below--and also some reflection questions.  -- Yes this is a 2nd discussion about Dry Bones--but it is possible that God wants to encourage us.

Dreams that are Dry Bones

Ezekiel 37:4-6, Habakkuk 2:3, II Chronicles 7:14

 

Have you ever had a dream that is like a deep heart yearning?  One that at one time has really happened, but now is one that is not happening anymore for what ever reason?  Do you yearn for it enough to let God help you bring it back to reality?

 

Think about this and what God can do for us if we really let Him be free to work on our behalf.  If the Lord can give flesh again to dry bones, He and only He can revive a dream which has become dry bones (Ezekiel 37:4-6).  He knows who should come along side and help.  He knows where to find that help. 

 

We cannot manipulate God, but we can let God show us if that dream is of Him, and obey Him and His word. 

 

Write the dream down (Habakkuk 2:3) and in humility take it to the Lord in prayer.  Pray, listen, and obey God’s word.  God knows our heart and when we turn in humility in prayer to Him, He will listen and guide us. (II Chronicles 7:14).

 

Reflections:

 

Have you had a dream that has not come to reality?

 

Have you written the vision down?

 

Have you humbly taken it to Him in prayer?

 

Dreams that God has given us—we need to write them down and humbly seek the Lord’s guidance in moving forward.  God will listen and guide us.
