1
00:00:00,760 --> 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 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: and ye shall live Ezekiel thirty seven.

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

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,799
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
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: thirty seven, I will prophesy and speak the words of

8
00:00:29,000 --> 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
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:44,479
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 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: power to help raise up an army of purpose filled

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: people who will inspire others to live the life that

14
00:00:56,040 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: You have created them to live. This mindset as my anchor,

15
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: I speak to every dead and forgotten dream in my life,

16
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: for you are alive. I declare that this will be

17
00:01:13,480 --> 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 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: life giving power to accelerate and succeed in Jesus' name, Amen,

20
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: listening to these daily prayers strengthens your relationship with God.

21
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: Continue hearing from the Lord by listening to Today's Bible.

22
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: In a year brought to you by Bible in a

23
00:01:45,920 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: Year dot Com.

24
00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 3: Valley of Dry Bones. In our last story, of Judah

25
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 3: struggled to regain stability. Some leaders desired to serve Babylon

26
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 3: and make peace, others desired to rebel. As a result,

27
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 3: brother turned against brother. The remnant of Judah was torn,

28
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 3: and many of them fled to Egypt despite Jeremiah's warnings.

29
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,839
Speaker 3: Now we are introduced to another prophet by the name

30
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: of Ezekiel. Ezekiel is given a unique glimpse into the

31
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 3: heart and mind of God. He is taken up by

32
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 3: his spirit and shown an image of Israel's dead souls

33
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 3: coming back to life. Inspired by the Book of Ezekiel.

34
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 2: This is Jack Graham with today's episode of the Bible

35
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: in a Year podcast. Thanks for joining us. In our

36
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 2: last episode, we heard about the remnant of Judah that

37
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: remained in the land after the Babylonian conquest. Those who

38
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: stayed had a difficult, demanding task. It was rebuilding their homeland,

39
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: which was laying in ruins. Though they tried to remain

40
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 2: faithful to God, evil conspired against those who sought to

41
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 2: do God's will. In fear, much of the remnant fled

42
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 2: to Egypt rather than trust in God's provision and protection.

43
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 2: Today we will meet a new prophet, a man named Ezekiel,

44
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 2: who will receive an awesome vision from God that shows

45
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 2: him God's heart for his people and the power that

46
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 2: only the God of Israel possesses to bring life even

47
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 2: to dead dry bones. Let's listen now to the reading

48
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 2: from God's word.

49
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 3: It was dusk, the sky was painted a strong amber.

50
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 3: In the prophet Ezekiel was walking among the fields. The

51
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: light breeze whistled through the valley, causing the grain to

52
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: dance back and forth. Ezekiel looked up to Heaven, praying

53
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 3: to the Lord. Then in an instant, Ezekiel was thrown

54
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: out into the spirit of God. The earth around him spun.

55
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: Ezekiel fell face down and looked up. It was no

56
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 3: longer in the lush fields. Ezekiel lifted his eyes to

57
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 3: see a blighted valley. The earth was coarse and black,

58
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 3: and the sky was dim with smog and soot. Ezikiel

59
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 3: heard a crack beneath his hands and feet bones. Ezekiel

60
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 3: sprung to his feet and saw that the entire valley

61
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 3: was laced with dry and rotting bones. The spirit of

62
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 3: the Lord took Ezekiel by the shoulder and led him

63
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 3: among the valley of dry bones, so dry that they

64
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 3: cracked and ground into a powder. As he stepped on them.

65
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 3: A wind blew through the east. Dust and bone covered

66
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 3: the entire land. It was a bleak and ominous sight.

67
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 3: A voice flew in with the wind and asked, son

68
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 3: of Man, can these dry bones live? Ezekiel looked at

69
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: the blighted valley. There was no sign of life for

70
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: a hundred miles in every direction. Oh, Lord, Ezekiel responded,

71
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 3: Only you know the answer to that. The wind blew

72
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 3: against his face. Speak over the bones, Ezekiel, God said,

73
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 3: speak for me anything, Oh you dry bones, hear the

74
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 3: word of the Lord. I will breathe life into you.

75
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 3: Your bodies will be covered in sinew, flesh and skin.

76
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 3: I will put my breath in you, and you shall

77
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 3: know that I am the Lord. Ezekiel nodded and looked

78
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 3: upon the desolation. He lifted his voice to the dry

79
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 3: bones and spoke the Lord's words to them. As he spoke,

80
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 3: the wind picked up, as if the breath of God

81
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 3: was flowing through the valley. The wind whistled, and the

82
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 3: sound of rattling filled the atmosphere. Ezekiel watched as the

83
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 3: bones rolled across the valley to find one another and

84
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,679
Speaker 3: come together. Bone found, bone, and skeletons were made whole.

85
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 3: Sinew wrapped around the dry and blighted bones, and muscles

86
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,159
Speaker 3: began to form around the limbs. Skin covered them, and

87
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 3: Ezekiel saw a sea of people lying lifeless on the ground.

88
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,679
Speaker 3: There was no life in them, no breath of God's spirit.

89
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: Ezekiel could feel the light caress of the breeze in it.

90
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 3: He heard God speak again, saying, Prophesie to the breath, Ezekiel,

91
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 3: speak for me, and declare the four winds of God

92
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: to breathe the life into the dead. Ezekiel was quivering.

93
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 3: His heart could barely contain what he was experiencing. At first,

94
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 3: Ezekiel said nothing. He struggled with the words as he

95
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 3: stared upon the valley of lifeless bodies. He regained his

96
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 3: composure and prophesied over the dead bodies with the words

97
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 3: of God. And in that instant, the wind howled from

98
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 3: every direction, the breath of God's spirit, the ruak, the numa,

99
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,679
Speaker 3: the same breath that breathed life in a mankind blew

100
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: mightily through the valley. Ironically, Ezekiel was breathless. He watched

101
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 3: as life was into the dead bodies. He watched them

102
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 3: rise from the ground and stand to their feet. Soon

103
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,119
Speaker 3: the bodies were covered in armor, and a vast army

104
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 3: stood before Ezekiel. It was a magnificent sight. The prophet

105
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 3: fell to his knees, beholding the army of living bones.

106
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 3: These bones are the house of Israel, my children. God

107
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: said to Ezekiel. They believe their hope is lost, just

108
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 3: like these dry bones. You must tell them that I

109
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 3: am able to open their graves and raise them to

110
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 3: new life. I shall put my spirit in them, and

111
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 3: they shall truly live. They shall know that I am

112
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: their God, and I am the author of life. Ezekiel

113
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: was still on his knees, trembling at the voice of

114
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 3: the Lord. His presence was comforting yet terrifying, strong yet gentle.

115
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 3: He hung on every word spoken to him. Take two

116
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 3: sticks and write on them, God commanded. The prophet grabbed

117
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 3: two fallen branches about the size of his arm and

118
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 3: began to carve out the words.

119
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: Of the Lord.

120
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 3: Behold, I am going to take the branch of Judah

121
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 3: and the branch of Israel and make them one again.

122
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 3: I will gather them and make them a single nation.

123
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: They will not fall again into idolatry, for I will

124
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 3: cleanse them of all unrighteousness. His Ekiel marveled at the

125
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 3: words of God. The thought of the two nations once

126
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 3: again coming together seemed too good to be true. It

127
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 3: was a dream come true. But who would lead such

128
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: a nation. None had been successful since the reign of David.

129
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 3: The Lord spoke again, saying, a son of David will

130
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 3: be king over the one nation. I will make a

131
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 3: covenant with them. They will sit in my presence, and

132
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 3: we will be close once again. I will shepherd them,

133
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 3: and all the nations shall be blessed because of them.

134
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 3: This God spoke concerning the coming king, the great Hero,

135
00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 3: that all heroes pointed to, the Great Priest, that all

136
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 3: priests pointed to. The Great King, that all kings pointed to,

137
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 3: the son of David, would bring about the true character

138
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 3: of God and bridge the gap between mankind and its creator.

139
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 3: This hero would be Jesus, the Christ and the Son

140
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 3: of God.

141
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 2: In today's reading, we're introduced to a new prophet, a

142
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 2: man named Ezekiel. God had spoken through Ezekiel for many years,

143
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 2: warning Judah and calling them back to God. But as

144
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 2: we already know, Judah did not repent, and they were

145
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 2: defeated conquered by the Babylonians. Ezekiel was taken along with

146
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 2: his people into exile. Ezekiel's name means God will strengthen,

147
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 2: and as we will soon discover, God is going to

148
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: use Ezekiel to tell his people just that that their

149
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 2: God will bring strength even to what they believe to

150
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 2: be and hopeless. For one day, God's spirit came upon

151
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: the prophet and he was taken up in a vision.

152
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 2: As he looked around, he was in a valley surrounded

153
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 2: by nothing but dry, dead, lifeless bones. God didn't ask

154
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 2: him a question that seems ridiculous from a human perspective.

155
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: He asked, can these bones live? Wisely, Ezekiel said, only

156
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: you know that. God. He surely knew that God, who

157
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 2: had made man out of nothing but dirt and breath,

158
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 2: could do anything he will, bringing life even to bones.

159
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 2: The Lord then commanded Ezekiel to speak his word over

160
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 2: the bones, and as he did, these dry, brittle bones

161
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 2: began to come together with muscles and tendons and flesh.

162
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 2: Suddenly the valley was covered with not bones, but human

163
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 2: bodies full of flesh. Yet there was no sign of life.

164
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 2: We have to think a vision of thousands of human

165
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: bones seemed disturbing enough, but these lifeless bodies all around

166
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 2: would have been a terrifying sight. But God wasn't done yet.

167
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 2: He told Ezekiel to speak to the four winds, calling

168
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 2: them to fill these lifeless bodies. This was no mere wind.

169
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 2: This was the breath of God, the powerful breath of

170
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 2: the Almighty, the same breath that filled Adam's lungs and

171
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: sprung him to life in the garden. It was the Ruach,

172
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 2: the wind God sent over the waters to make them

173
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 2: recede after the flood. There was great power in the

174
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: breath of God, and as Ezekiel prophesied to the winds,

175
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: they came and filled the bodies with life. It is

176
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 2: an amazing reminder of God's life giving power, and this

177
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 2: was the message God wanted Ezekiel to give to his people.

178
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 2: The once lifeless bodies rose from the ground and stood

179
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 2: before him an awesome army of warriors. Then God spoke

180
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 2: and we read in Ezekiel thirty seven, verse eleven twelve

181
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: and thirteen. These words, Son of Man, these bones are

182
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: the people of Israel. They say, our bones are dried

183
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 2: up and our hope is gone. We are cut off.

184
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 2: Therefore prophesy and say to them, this is what the

185
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 2: sovereign Lord says, my people. I am going to open

186
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 2: your graves and bring you up from them. I will

187
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 2: bring you back to the land of Israel. Then you,

188
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: my people, will know that I am the Lord when

189
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 2: I open your graves and bring you up from them.

190
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 2: Despite the disobedience of God's people, their lack of faithfulness,

191
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 2: God would not leave them in a hopeless situation. God

192
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: has a plan and eternal plan for Israel. Though they

193
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 2: could only see despair and darkness and death in their exile,

194
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: God was giving them a message of hope. The same

195
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 2: God of hope is alive and working today. Even in

196
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: your most hopeless situation, where nothing good seems possible, where

197
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: there is only dry bones in death, God promises hope,

198
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 2: and it is the core, the same hope that he

199
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 2: was announcing to his people at his core. This is

200
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 2: the hope that God was giving to his people through Ezekiel,

201
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 2: and it is the hope that he promises us today

202
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 2: through our Lord Jesus Christ. And here was the promise

203
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 2: to God's people, even though they could not fully understand it.

204
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: God was promising that he would restore the nation to life.

205
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,079
Speaker 2: They would be restored to their homeland, and the two

206
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 2: nations Judah and Israel. God was going to bring them

207
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 2: under one king. Dear God, we pray for revival in

208
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 2: our nation, spiritual awakening around the world. May you take

209
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 2: what is dead and bring it to life. Revive your church,

210
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 2: Oh God, bring your people back to life. May we

211
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 2: stand and not be silent with the word of God

212
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: and the testimony of Jesus. May we live under the

213
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 2: banner and the power and in the breath of God's Spirit,

214
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 2: Christ the King. Dear God, Thank you that even in

215
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 2: the most desperate and desolate circumstances, when death is all around,

216
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 2: you are still in control and you can bring life

217
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: out of death. You did that in the resurrection through Jesus,

218
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 2: our Lord, and it is in his name that we pray. Amen.
