We ended yesterday, with a challenge to immediately obey God. This is easy, when what you are doing isn’t working. But, what about when what God tells you to do, looks impossible? When God asked you to do something so foolish, that everyone will think you are crazy, will you obey then? Yes, even then. When God wants immediate obedience to do something crazy we are to obey. Whatever, you are looking at that seems impossible, God wants to make it possible.
In the book of Ezekiel beginning with chapter 37 verse 1, we see God showing the prophet an impossible situation and then asking him a question. Now, you and I both know we are not smarter than God. God knows all things. God asked us a question to show us how little we know. When God asked us a question He wants us to go to Him for the answers. God wanted to help Ezekiel, not see him fail. When we succeed we bring God Glory. Whatever, we are looking at, whatever we are up against, God has an answer.
Most churches are content with seeing a bunch of dry bones stand up and go to the altar. We stop there. But God, wasn’t finished with Ezekiel when the noise and the rattling began. God wanted Ezekiel to finish what he started, to keep on prophesying, to keep on doing what God told him to do. Too many churches and preachers start Facebooking and televising a half-finished miracle, a half-done move of God. God wanted a mighty army with flesh, sinews and breath in them. God wanted graves open, He wanted to give them land they owned not the bank! God wanted them out of debt! God wanted complete restoration. Who knows, it could have been debt that sent them to an early grave in the first place!
ACTION STEP: Begin today to speak the Word of God over your situation. Don’t stop until what looks impossible becomes a reality. Let your life speak to the nations of unbelievers so that they can see that God is the God of impossibilities. Let your life bring Glory to God.
