Lord God Almighty

I don’t know why somebody would get mad at you for telling people to confess good things over their life and future and their family. I’ll tell you why: Because when that spirit of “religion” gets involved, it only has one way to do everything and that’s their way. Maybe you’ve never heard anything like this. Well, don’t just believe me; check it out in the bible.

God calls those things that be not as if they already existed. Go to Ezekiel 37. vs. 1: The hand of the Lord was upon me and he brought me out in the spirit and set me down in the midst of the valley and it was full of bones. Sometimes we look around and that’s all we feel like we see is just one mess after another mess after another mess. We’re in debt. The kids are a mess. The marriage is a mess. The house is a mess. My body’s a mess. You can look around and just go: Lord God Almighty, whew! Can these bones live? Is there any hope for this? You may think: Man, I came here with so many problems tonight, don’t be telling me that just speaking positive is going to change it. Well… vs. 2: The spirit caused me to pass round about among these bones and behold, there were very many human bones in the valley and they were very dry.

There weren’t just dry bones, there were many bones and they were very dry. vs. 3: And he said to me, son of man, can these bones live? Can these problems be solved? Can this mess be changed? Can I have a good life? Can I prosper? Can I be healthy? Can I succeed? Can my kids serve you? Can this marriage be restored? Oh, I love this! Verse 4: And he said to me, – uh-oh! – Prophesy to these bones. The word “prophesy” means to speak forth; it means to open your mouth and say something. vs. 4: And say to them, o you dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
