Then God told Ezekiel to speak words of faith – prophetic words – to the lifeless, scattered bones – to tell them that they would live; that they would be rejoined, covered with flesh, filled with breath, and be alive again. As Ezekiel spoke the words God gave him, the miracle happened, the prophecy was fulfilled, and the bones became living people.
When that happens, we must look to God for the answer, even if he is the one asking the question. Then when he puts a ray of hope, a seed of faith in us, we can begin to speak that word of faith into the situation and allow him to work a miracle.
Sovereign Lord, I don’t understand why you choose to partner with us to work the miracles you want to perform. Often we miss the miracle because we don’t deal with the question you’re asking. Sometimes we miss the miracle because we don’t speak the word of faith you’ve given us into the situation. Help me to consider the questions you ask and to speak and act as you instruct. I want to see the miracles you have planned come to pass. Amen.
