God shows Ezekiel this vision of a valley of dry bones coming back to life in order to give the Israelites hope during their exile in Babylon. They felt hopelessness and despair. This vision is God’s message to them that He will bring life and restoration to hopeless situations. Just like the Israelites, we need to be reminded that God is an all-powerful God and He will make a way when we feel there is no way. Nothing is impossible for Him, even bringing dry bones to life.
Questions for further thought: 1. What has you feeling hopeless today? 2. When has God brought life and restoration to what you felt was a hopeless situation? Challenge: If God brought life and restoration for the named situation for question #2, He will do that now. Give it to God today by praying for the “dry bones” in your life to be brought to life and restored.
