1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: Let us pray thus saith the Lord God. Unto these

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: bones behold, I will cause breath to enter into you,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 1: and ye shall live Ezekiel thirty seven.

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 2: Five.

5
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: Lord, through the power of your Holy Spirit, I will

6
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: speak life into the dead dreams of others. Like Ezekiel

7
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: thirty seven, I will prophesy and speak the words of

8
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:34,480
Speaker 1: God over every person I see. May your breath fill

9
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: them with every ounce of hope needed for them to

10
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 1: step into their God given identity. I declare and decree

11
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: that through my life, I will do everything in my

12
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: power to help raise up an army of purpose filled

13
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: people who will inspire others to live the life that

14
00:00:56,040 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: You've created them to live. With this mindset as my anchor,

15
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 1: I speak to every dead and forgotten dream in my life,

16
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: for you are alive. I declare that this will be

17
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 1: a season of rebirth and newness. I declare that whatever

18
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: and whoever I come in contact with will receive your

19
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: life giving power to accelerate and succeed in Jesus' name, Amen,

20
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: Listening to these daily prayers strengthens your relationship with God.

21
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: Continue hearing from the Lord by listening to Today's Bible.

22
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: In a year brought to you by Bible in a

23
00:01:45,959 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: Year dot com.

24
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 3: Valley of Dry Bones. In our last story, the Remnant

25
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 3: of Judah struggled to regain stability. Some leaders desired to

26
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 3: serve Babylon and make peace, others desired to rebel. As

27
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 3: a result, brother turned against brother. The Remnant of Judah

28
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 3: was torn, and many of them fled to Egypt despite

29
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 3: Jeremiah's warnings. Now we are introduced to another prophet by

30
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 3: the name of Ezekiel. Ezekiel is given a unique glimpse

31
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 3: into the heart and mind of God. He is taken

32
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 3: up by his spirit and shown an image of Israel's

33
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: dead souls coming back to life. Inspired by the Book

34
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 3: of Ezekiel.

35
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 2: This is Jack Graham with today's episode of the Bible

36
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 2: in a Year podcast. Thanks for joining us. In our

37
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 2: last episode, we heard about the remnant of Judah that

38
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 2: remained in the landa after the Babylonian conquest. Those who

39
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: stayed had a difficult, demanding task. It was rebuilding their homeland,

40
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 2: which was laying in rooms. Though they tried to remain

41
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 2: faithful to God, evil conspired against those who sought to

42
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 2: do God's will. In fear. Much of the remnant fled

43
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: to Egypt rather than trust in God's provision and protection.

44
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: Today we will meet a new prophet, a man named Ezekiel,

45
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: who will receive an awesome vision from God that shows

46
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 2: him God's heart for his people and the power that

47
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: only the God of Israel possesses to bring life even

48
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 2: to dead dry bones. Let's listen now to the reading

49
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: from God's word.

50
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 3: It was dusk, the sky was painted a strong amber,

51
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 3: and the prophet Ezekiel, was walking among the fields. The

52
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 3: light breeze whistled through the valley, causing the grain to

53
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 3: dance back and forth. Ezekiel looked up to Heaven, praying

54
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 3: to the Lord. Then in an instant, Ezekiel was thrown

55
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 3: out into the spirit of God. The earth around him spun.

56
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 3: Ezekiel fell face down and looked up. He was no

57
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 3: longer in the lush fields. Ezekiel lifted his eyes to

58
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: see a blighted valley. The earth was coarse and black,

59
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 3: and the sky was dim with smog and soot. Ezikiel

60
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 3: heard a crack beneath his hands and feet bones. Ezekiel

61
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 3: sprung to his feet and saw that the entire valley

62
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: was laced with dry and rotting bones. The spirit of

63
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 3: the Lord took Ezekiel by the shoulder and led him

64
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 3: among the valley of dry bones, so dry that they

65
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 3: cracked and ground into a powder. As he stepped on them,

66
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 3: a wind blew through the east. Dust and bone covered

67
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: the entire land. It was a bleak and ominous sight.

68
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 3: A voice flew in with the wind and asked, son

69
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 3: of Man, can these dry bones live? Ezekiel looked at

70
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 3: the blighted valley. There was no sign of life for

71
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: a hundred miles in every direction. Oh, Lord, Ezekiel responded,

72
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 3: Only you know the answer to that. The wind blew

73
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 3: against his face. Speak over the bones, Ezekiel, God said,

74
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: speak for me anything, Oh you dry bones, hear the

75
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 3: word of the Lord. I will breathe life into you.

76
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 3: Your bodies will be covered in sinew, flesh and skin.

77
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: I will put my breath in you, and you shall

78
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 3: know that I am the Lord. Ezekiel nodded and looked

79
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 3: upon the desolation. He lifted his voice to the dry

80
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 3: bones and spoke the Lord's words to them. As he spoke,

81
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 3: the wind picked up, as if the breath of God

82
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 3: was flowing through the valley. The wind whistled, and the

83
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 3: sound of rattling filled the atmosphere. Ezekiel watched as the

84
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 3: bones rolled across the valley to find one another and

85
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 3: come together. Bone found, bone, and skeletons were made whole.

86
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 3: Sinew wrapped around the dry and blighted bones, and muscles

87
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 3: began to form around the limbs. Skin covered them, and

88
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: Ezekiel saw a sea of people lying lifeless on the ground.

89
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 3: There was no life in them, no breath of God's spirit.

90
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 3: Ezekiel could feel the light caress of the breeze in it.

91
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 3: He heard God speak again, saying, Prophesie to the breath, Ezekiel,

92
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 3: speak for me, and declare the four winds of God

93
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 3: to breathe life into the dead. Ezekiel was quivering. His

94
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 3: heart could barely contain what he was experiencing. At first,

95
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 3: Ezekiel said nothing. He struggled with the words as he

96
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 3: stared upon the valley of lifeless bodies. He regained his

97
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 3: composure and prophesied over the dead bodies with the words

98
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 3: of God. And in that instant, the wind howled from

99
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 3: every direction, the breath of God's spirit, the ruach the Numa,

100
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 3: the same breath that breathed life into mankind blew mightily

101
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 3: through the valley. Ironically, Ezekiel was breathless. He watched as

102
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 3: life was breathed into the dead bodies. He watched them

103
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 3: rise from the ground and stand to their feet. Soon

104
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 3: the bodies were covered in armor, and a vast army

105
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 3: stood before Ezekiel. It was a magnificent sight. The prophet

106
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 3: fell to his knees, beholding the army of living bones.

107
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: These bones are the house of Israel, my children. God

108
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 3: said to Ezekiel. They believe their hope is lost, just

109
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 3: like these dry bones. You must tell them that I

110
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 3: am able to open their graves and raise them to

111
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 3: new life. I shall put my spirit in them, and

112
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 3: they shall truly live. They shall know that I am

113
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 3: their God, and I am the author of life. Ezekiel

114
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 3: was still on his knees, trembling at the voice of

115
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 3: the Lord. His presence was comforting yet terrifying, Strong yet gentle.

116
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: He hung on every word spoken to him. Take two

117
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 3: sticks and write on them, God commanded. The prophet grabbed

118
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 3: two fallen branches about the size of his arms and

119
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: began to carve out the words of the Lord. Behold,

120
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: I am going to take the branch of Judah and

121
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 3: the branch of Israel, and make them one again. I

122
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 3: will gather them and make them a single nation. They

123
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 3: will not fall again into idolatry, for I will cleanse

124
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 3: them of all unrighteousness. Isekiel marveled at the words of God.

125
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 3: The thought of the two nations once again coming together

126
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 3: seemed too good to be true. It was a dream

127
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 3: come true. But who would lead such a nation. None

128
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 3: had been successful since the reign of David. The Lord

129
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 3: spoke again, saying, a son of David will be king

130
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 3: over the one nation. I will make a covenant with them.

131
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 3: They will sit in my presence, and we will be

132
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 3: close once again. I will shepherd them, and all the

133
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 3: nations shall be blessed because of them. This God spoke

134
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 3: concerning the coming king, the Great Hero, that all heroes

135
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 3: pointed to, the Great Priest, that all priests pointed to.

136
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 3: The Great King, that all kings pointed to, the Son

137
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 3: of David, would bring about the true character of God

138
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 3: and bridge the gap between mankind and its creator. This

139
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 3: hero would be Jesus, the Christ and the.

140
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: Son of God.

141
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 2: In today's reading, we're introduced to a new prophet, a

142
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 2: man named Ezekiel. God had spoken through Ezekiel for many years,

143
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 2: warning Judah and calling them back to God. But as

144
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: we already know, Judah did not repent, and they were

145
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: defeated conquered by the Babylonians. Ezekiel was taken along with

146
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: his people into exile. Ezekiel's name means God will strengthen,

147
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 2: and as we will soon discover, God is going to

148
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: use Ezekiel to tell his people just that that their

149
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 2: God will bring strength even to what they believed be

150
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 2: dead and hopeless. For one day, God's spirit came upon

151
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 2: the prophet and he was taken up in a vision.

152
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: As he looked around, he was in a valley surrounded

153
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 2: by nothing but dry, dead, lifeless bones. God didn't ask

154
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: him a question that seems ridiculous from a human perspective.

155
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 2: He asked, can these bones live? Wisely, Ezekiel said, only

156
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 2: you know that God. He surely knew that God, who

157
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 2: had made man out of nothing but dirt and breath,

158
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 2: could do anything he will, bringing life even to bones.

159
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 2: The Lord then commanded Ezekiel to speak his word over

160
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: the bones, and as he did, these dry, brittle bones

161
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 2: began to come together with muscles and tendons and flesh.

162
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 2: Suddenly the valley was covered with not bones, but human

163
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 2: bodies full of flesh. Yet there was no sign of life.

164
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 2: We have to think a vision of thousands of human

165
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 2: and bones seemed disturbing enough, but these lifeless bodies all

166
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 2: around would have been a terrifying sight. But God wasn't

167
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 2: done yet. He told Ezekiel to speak to the four winds,

168
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 2: calling them to fill these lifeless bodies. This was no

169
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: mere wind. This was the breath of God, the powerful

170
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 2: breath of the Almighty, the same breath that filled Adam's

171
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 2: lungs and sprung him to life in the garden. It

172
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 2: was the Ruoch, the wind God sent over the waters

173
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 2: to make them recede after the flood. There was great

174
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 2: power in the breath of God, and as Ezekiel prophesied

175
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 2: to the winds, they came and filled the bodies with life.

176
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 2: It is an amazing reminder of God's life giving power,

177
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 2: and this was the message God wanted Ezekiel to give

178
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 2: to his people. The once lifeless bodies rose from the

179
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 2: ground and stood before him an awesome army of warriors.

180
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 2: Then God spoke and we read in Ezekiel thirty seven,

181
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,359
Speaker 2: verse eleven, twelve and thirteen. These words, Son of Man,

182
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 2: these bones are the people of Israel. They say, our

183
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 2: bones are dried up and our hope is gone. We

184
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 2: are cut off. Therefore prophesy and say to them, this

185
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 2: is what the Sovereign Lord says, my people. I am

186
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: going to open your graves and bring you up from them.

187
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: I will bring you back to the land of Israel.

188
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 2: Then you, my people, will know that I am the

189
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: Lord when I open your graves and bring you up

190
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 2: from them. Despite the disobedience of God's people their lack

191
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 2: of faithfulness, God would not leave them in a hopeless situation.

192
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 2: God has a plan and eternal plan for Israel. Though

193
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 2: they could only see despair and darkness and death in

194
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 2: their exile, God was giving them a message of hope.

195
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 2: The same God of hope is alive and working today.

196
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: Even in your most hopeless situation, where nothing good seems

197
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 2: possible there is only dry bones in death. God promises hope,

198
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 2: and it is the core, the same hope that he

199
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 2: was announcing to his people at his core. This is

200
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: the hope that God was giving to his people through Ezekiel,

201
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 2: and it is the hope that he promises us today

202
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 2: through our Lord Jesus Christ. And here was the promise

203
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 2: to God's people, even though they could not fully understand it.

204
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: God was promising that he would restore the nation to life.

205
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 2: They would be restored to their homeland, and the two

206
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 2: nations Judah and Israel. God was going to bring them

207
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 2: under one king. Dear God, we pray for revival in

208
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 2: our nation, spiritual awakening around the world. May you take

209
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: what is dead and bring it to life. Revive your church,

210
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: O God, bring your people back to life. May we

211
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 2: stand and not be silent with the word of God

212
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 2: and the testimony of Jesus. May we live under the

213
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 2: banner and the power and in the breath of God

214
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 2: Spirit Christ the King. Dear God, Thank you that even

215
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: in the most desperate and desolate circumstances, when death is

216
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 2: all around, you are still in control and you can

217
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 2: bring life out of death. You did that in the

218
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 2: resurrection through Jesus, our Lord, and it is in his

219
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 2: name that we pray. Amen. Thank you for listening to
