Fr. Mike explains the significance behind the mention of bones in Jeremiah and Ezekiel. In Jeremiah, we learn that the bones of God's people are scattered because of their worship of false gods. In Ezekiel, we see the prophet prophesy over the valley of dry bones and the Lord's Spirit restoring and moving within them. Today's readings are Jeremiah 8, Ezekiel 37-38, and Proverbs 14:33-35.

Dry Bones into a Dynamic Army | Bishop Ostine PaulWhat looks dead, defeated, and beyond repair is not beyond the power of God.In this powerful message, Bishop Ostine Paul takes us through Ezekiel 37 and the vision of the dry bones, revealing how God can breathe life into situations that have experienced long-term defeat, brokenness, and hopelessness.The message reminds us that the length of the problem does not limit the strength of God's power. What seems irreparable can become repairable. What appears irreversible can become reversible. And what looks lifeless can become a powerful army when the breath of God enters it.Bishop Ostine Paul shares four powerful truths:1. Breakthrough Begins in BrokennessBrokenness is not the end—it can be the prerequisite for breakthrough.2. Irreparable Becomes RepairableGod can restore what appears abandoned, damaged, and beyond repair.3. Irreversible Becomes ReversibleThe Word of God and the power of the Holy Spirit can change what seems impossible to change.4. Resistible Becomes IrresistibleWhen the breath of God enters what was once dead, it becomes a dynamic army empowered by His Spirit.Your situation may have been dry for a long time, but old problems can encounter new power. God is still able to restore, revive, rebuild, and breathe new life into what appears hopeless.The dry bones were not the end of the story. And your situation is not the end of your story either.
Join Stephen Streett as he delves into Ezekiel 37, exploring the powerful imagery of the valley of dry bones. This sermon reflects on themes of hope, restoration, and the enduring presence of God. With references to Psalm 23 and the transformative power of faith, Streett invites listeners to renew their spiritual journey and embrace God's promise of life and renewal.
Ezekiel 37:1-14
Ezekiel 37 This passage is one of the most popular and recognizable in the entire book of Ezekiel. The imagery and message of the valley of dry bones is haunting, encouraging, and downright exciting. It sounds like something Hollywood would be challenged to depict, even with all their CGI and technology. But the picture is powerful - God can use his Word and his Spirit to bring real restoration to every part of a human life. Revival and reanimation are within the Lord's power; he can bring the dead and desiccated back to vibrant life!
Prophetic Declaration: Breathe on These Dry Bones! Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! Ezekiel 37:4 In moments of despair, when dreams feel shattered, and hope seems a distant memory, we often find ourselves standing in our own Valley of Dry Bones. We look around and see the remnants of what once was — relationships, aspirations, and joy — all reduced to dust. Yet, even in our deepest valleys, a profound truth emerges: hope can rise again. This is a prophetic declaration — a call to breathe life back into our desolation, an invitation to believe that God can resurrect what seems beyond repair. Ezekiel's vision in the valley serves as a powerful reminder of God's ability to revive our dry bones. In Ezekiel 37:4–10, the Lord commands, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Hear, O dry bones! I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life.'” Just as God breathed life into those bones, He can infuse breath into our defeated dreams. Romans 8:11 emphasizes that the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead lives within us, igniting a resurrection power that defies all odds. “What God names, God raises.” When He calls something into existence, it becomes vibrant and alive. Job 33:4 says, "The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life." Reflect on your own life: What dreams lay dormant? What relationships feel fractured? Take a moment to invite the Spirit of God into these spaces. Speak life into your circumstances, and remember that you are not alone. You are part of a divine narrative where hope meets healing. Through small acts of faith — like prayer, journaling, or reaching out to someone in need — you can ignite the spark that sets your life back on a transformative path. Think of Job in Job 33:4, where he declared his faith amidst anguish, believing that God would restore him. Like Job, we are called to declare life to our bones to live! With every breath we take, we can partner with God in prophecy to bring our desolate dreams back to life. Ask the Lord to assemble His purpose and animate your destiny, knowing that resurrection flows from His spirit. Amen. 1 Corinthians 6:14 says, "By His power God raised the Lord from the dead, and He will raise us also." Amen. Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for the promise of new life. Spirit of God, breathe life into what is dry within me; awaken my dreams and passions. As I stand in faith, I declare that You will assemble purpose and animate destiny in me. May Your resurrection power flow through every aspect of my life, restoring hope and joy in Jesus' name. Amen. https://maglife.org

July 20, 2026 Daily Devotional: “The Covenant of Peace”Ezekiel 37:26 I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant. I will establish them and increase their numbers, and I will put my sanctuary among them forever." Ezekiel 37 opens with the famous vision of the Valley of Dry Bones. God takes Ezekiel to a valley filled with scattered, completely dry bones, symbolizing the nationof Israel in Babylonian exile. The people felt cut off, hopeless, and spiritually "dead." After God miraculously breathes life back into these bones, transforming them into a living army, He speaks verse 26 to seal His ultimate plan for them. God is telling a broken, exiled people: Your current ruin is not your final destination. The chapters leading up to this verse paint one of the most famous, visceral pictures in Scripture: a valley of dry, scattered bones. It's a vivid image of absolute hopelessness, representing a people who felt cut off, dried up, and completely shattered by their circumstances. But God doesn't leave them in thedust. He breathes new life into the bones, knits them back together, and then delivers the ultimate promise found in verse 26. He doesn't just offer a temporary fix or a fleeting moment of relief. He promises a covenant of peace —a deep, holistic well-being, wholeness, and reconciliation that isn't dependent on shifting circumstances. Notice the progression of God's promise here. He establishes as He provides a firm, unshakeable foundation where there was once chaos and ruin. Hemultiplies and brings growth and fruitfulness out of barrenness. He places His sanctuary and dwells—His personal presence—right in the middle of them forever. When you feel like you are walking through your own valley of dry bones—whether due to an exhausting season, broken relationships, or internal anxiety—remember that God's ultimate blueprint for your life is not destruction, but restoration. His peace isn't just the absence of conflict; it is the presence of the Living God establishing Himself in the very center of your story. Ezekiel 37:26 is God's absolute guarantee that no matter how broken, scattered, or spiritually dead a situation looks, He possesses the ultimate authority torestore it, anchor it in His peace, and make it His permanent dwelling place. Are you anchoring your peace to your current circumstances, or to the "everlasting" promise of God? Circumstances shift, but His covenant does not. Actively invite God's presence into the messy, unestablished parts of your day today. Let His peace guard your mind when anxiety tries to reclaim territory.

Ezekiel ch 37 vs 1-6 - Preacher Cameron Mason - Sunday, June 14, 2026
The Gemara in Sanhedrin 92a-b discusses nine different approaches to understanding the Dry Bones Nevuah of Yechezkel 37, including whether it was literal or metaphorical, and who the resurrected people were.
This Next Gen Sunday sermon used Ezekiel 37's Valley of Dry Bones to teach that no person or generation is too far gone for God to restore. The speakers connected modern struggles like anxiety, brokenness, and searching for fulfillment apart from God with Israel's spiritual condition, emphasizing that true life comes through God's Word, obedience, and the Holy Spirit. Through stories like Lazarus and David, they challenged the church to see purpose and destiny in the next generation instead of failure, declaring that God still sees “an exceedingly great army” rising up for His Kingdom.
Dry Bones!Dead things Come Alive!
God can make the impossible possible. Don't let frustration or comparison make you doubt His promises. Like Ezekiel, boldly prophesy over the dead, hopeless areas of your life. Trust God's higher ways to breathe fresh life and miraculous restoration into your dry bones today.

Title: Dry BonesText: Ezekiel 37 Chris HefnerThe Power of God's Promises to Dry Bones One Principle: God's promises reflect the magnitude of his name/glory not the significance of our situations. Two Precepts: 1. The Word of God displays the power of God to the people of God.2. The Spirit of God through the Word of God gives life to the people of God. Three Purposes: 1. For the glory of the name of the Lord (36:16-22).2. That we (the people of God) will know the Lord is God (37:6, 13, 14).3. That the nations will know the Lord is God (36:36-38; 37:28).

On the night of April 4, 2026, St. Peter's by-the-Sea gathered in darkness to proclaim that Easter doesn't begin after the darkness lifts — it begins inside it.The Rt. Rev. Nicholas Knisely, Bishop of Rhode Island, delivered the sermon for this year's Great Vigil of Easter. Drawing on the witness of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Bishop Knisely distinguishes between optimism — "I think things will get better" — and hope: the conviction that God is not finished. In a world of war, fear, and exhaustion, he argues that the resurrection was not wish fulfillment. It shattered categories. It was an act of God that no one planned, predicted, or could have arranged — and that death could not undo.The service includes the ancient Exsultet, five Old Testament readings tracing God's saving acts from Creation through the Valley of Dry Bones, the renewal of Baptismal Vows, the Epistle from Romans 6, and the Easter Gospel from Matthew 28. Fr. Craig Swan leads the Prayers of the People.Scripture: Genesis 1, Genesis 7–9, Exodus 14–15, Isaiah 55, Ezekiel 37, Romans 6:3–11, Matthew 28:1–10Keywords: Easter Vigil, Episcopal Church, Bishop Nicholas Knisely, Rhode Island, resurrection, hope, Desmond Tutu, Great Vigil of Easter, Narragansett, St. Peter's by-the-Sea

On this Palm Sunday, Pastor Chris looked at some things that Ezekiel's vision of the Valley of Dry Bones has in common with Jesus' Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. Those two remarkable biblical accounts share some beautiful parallels, and along the way we also took a look at one pivotal event just before Jesus entered the city. What might all three stories of those biblical stories reveal about the person and work of Jesus? Join us! The painting associated with this sermon/podcast is titled "Ezekiel" (1979) by Richard McBee.
Ezekiel writes in a time of exile, uncertainty, and deep loss. And yet, his vision insists that endings are not always the end of the story. This conversation reflects on hope, resilience, and the courage to believe in renewal. #RoundHillChurch #FaithAndHope #ProgressiveChristianity #SacredNoticing #Hope

On this morning's episode of Slingshot Nation, the team dives straight into supernatural territory after Jack recounts being pulled into a lucid dream realm and physically attacked by a shadowy presence that felt frighteningly real. Tony follows with a disturbing dream of government elites—Trump and J.D. Vance—appearing as hybrid beings inside a dystopian facility. As they compare experiences, the room shifts. They unpack a recent ministry encounter involving Katie Souza and Lindsay where each member of the team was hit with intense spiritual activity, including visions, mirror manifestations, and physical sensations that mirrored the dream attacks. The conversation then pivots into Scripture, where the forgotten stories become even more shocking than the dreams. The team explores Matthew 27's account of saints rising from their graves when Jesus died, Ezekiel 37's Valley of Dry Bones coming back to life, and historical testimonies of beheaded saints carrying their own heads while continuing to preach. In this episode of Slingshot Nation, dream warfare, hybrid deception, and biblical resurrection collide—revealing a much stranger and more supernatural reality than most believers have ever considered.
