Ezekiel 37:1-14<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I: Exekiel set a watchman to Israel:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>They were in captivity a long ways from home.<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>They were few in number.<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>They had given up hope.<\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>Their harps were hung on the willow trees; No songs in their hearts.<\/p>\n

5. <\/strong>They had refused God.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

II: “I Sat Where They Sat.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>No one is fit to speak for God until he is able to wear the other mans shoes. (compassion<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>He heard their complaints.<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>He had gone in bitterness to those who were preoccupied with their own problems.<\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>Their God was too small to deliver them (He may have been dead)!<\/p>\n

5. <\/strong>“Our homes are dried up we are like dead men.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

III: “The hand of the Lord was upon me.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>Ezekiel was sat down in a valley of dry bones.<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>He was made to walk among them and around them. “They were very many.”<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>“They were very dry.”<\/p>\n

4. “<\/strong>Son of man can these bones live?” All science, all man’s knowledge, all lectures, and all time reviewed stand helpless. “O Lord God, thou knowest.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

IV: The Impossible Came to Pass:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>“Prophesy upon these bones.” A Baptist preacher ought to know. Preach! and he was successful!<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>“So I prophesied.” Now it’s up to God.<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>“Behold a shaking and the bones came together.”<\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>“Say to the wind… and breath came into them and they lived and stood upon their feet.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 V: A Future Gathering of Israel:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>They came home.<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>They were scattered.<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>They have come home again in our day.<\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>God is moving toward the last hours of this old world.<\/p>\n

5. <\/strong>This old world is dead toward God!<\/p>\n

6. <\/strong>None are too dead or dry when they hear the word of the Lord! Havana Church -Bio Morgan<\/p>\n
