Prophesy To These Dry Bones

"Prophesy to these bones...dry bones" Ezekiel 37.

The Holy Spirit spoke to me one time. Speaks about the Body of Christ should have LIFE as what prophet Ezekiel prophesied to the bones.

This particular chapter in the book of Ezekiel about the vision of prophet Ezekiel was the shadow of the book of Ephesians about the Body of Christ.

"I looked and tendons and flesh on them(bone to bone) skin covered them." (Ezekiel 37:8)

In order to connect every bones it would be covered by tendons and flesh.
The body will not be formed as body unless every bones are connected properly.

According to the book of Ephesians 4:16 "From Him the whole body, JOINED AND HELD TOGETHER BY EVERY SUPPORTING LIGAMENT, GROWS AND BUILDS ITSELF UP IN LOVE, as its part does it work."

So, the Body of Christ, His ekklesia joined and held together and by the love of God is the one who stick us together. So, Let the love of God cover us so that the Body of Christ will be formed.

"So I prophesied as He commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet - a vast army." (Ezekiel 37:10)

"...and the breath entered them; they came to life."

Lets try to look back when God created man, "He gave life through His nostrils the breath of life."

Only in Christ we have life. It's not through the agendas of men; programs, activities, etc. that makes His ekklesia or the Body of Christ alive but through 
His presence by believing and trusting God that He is alive and by obeying His word and by God's grace, He made us and joined us together. 

He draws people together in a dynamic, ever-changing network of love. This is life changing.

"...They came to life and stood up on their feet - a vast army."

This is a parallel meaning of what the book of Ephesians 2:21 says,
"Joined together and RISE to become a HOLY TEMPLE OF THE LORD."

The Holy temple of the Lord or the Body of Christ, His ekklesia is like an army.

Matthew 16:18 says,"On this rock, I will build my Church, AND THE GATES OF HADES WILL NOT OVERCOME IT." 

His ekklesia will rise like an army of the Lord empowered by the mighty power of the Holy Spirit through joining and holding together with love and the gates of hades will not overcome it... His ekklesia becomes victorious by God's grace. 

Hallelujah...

All the glory to God alone.
