As I've been sharing my quest for my God-Potential; to step up and step out as God calls me to, I've also been thinking about my obstacles and praying for renewal through Jesus' work in me...As I said yesterday, Jesus is still in the miracle business and I've been praying for HIS miraculous work in me so that all that holds me back from being better and doing more can be overcome through faith and His Power...This morning, I came across this scripture:Ezekiel 37: 1-6; 14
The Valley of Dry Bones
The hand of the Lord was upon me, and He brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in 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 "O 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 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."
14. "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."
If ever you thought that all hope was lost or that any hope was wrapped up in your own power to overcome your obstacles, bad habits, or inertia, be assured by this Scripture that God and God alone can renew you, put new breath and spirit into your life...
He can - just ask!!!
