  1. Our greetings and blessings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior, jesus Christ.

  2. I want to bring you a devotional word titled Uplifted Kingdom Power Operating Through God's Word.

  3. God's word is dynamite, god's word is power, and I want to encourage you to receive this word from the Lord.

  4. And I want to encourage you to receive this word from the Lord and to decree and declare this word and wait at the results that came out of him taking God's word and releasing it.

  5. And you may be familiar with a story popularly referred to as the Valley of Dry Bones, and it's a valley full of dry bones that was turned around into a valley of life.

  6. Bones that was turned around into a valley of life.

  7. And God's word is able to turn around a valley, the valley of death in your life, into the valley of life.

  8. God's word is powerful.

  9. And so in Ezekiel, chapter 37, I will read from verse 4 to verse 7.

    Ezekiel 37 chapter mention

  10. And this is what the Bible says.

  11. Then he said to me that was God speaking to prophet Ezekiel.

  12. Prophesy to the bones and say to them dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.

  13. This is what the sovereign Lord says to these bones I'll make breath enter you, you will come to life.

  14. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin.

  15. I will put breath in you and you will come to life.

  16. Then you will know that I am the Lord.

  17. Verse 7, it says regarding Ezekiel.

  18. Ezekiel 37, verse 7.

    Ezekiel 37:7

  19. Now.

  20. So I prophesied as I was commanded, and these are very important verse Ezekiel 37, verse 7.

    Ezekiel 37:7

  21. So I prophesied as I was commanded and as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound was commanded, and as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone, out of the declaration or prophetic proclamation of God's word that Ezekiel did.

  22. Suddenly, activity started happening in the Valley of Dry Bones and I just have just read there was a rattling, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and then bones came together, bone to bone, and from that construct, everything else followed until the valley of death became the valley of life and a big army was raised out of dry bones.

  23. God is able to raise a big army from dry bones and so, simply, it is this Take God's word from him, you know, listen to what God is saying.

  24. Then that word, take it to the valleys where there is death, and proclaim and declare and leave the results to God.

  25. Wait to see what God will do.

  26. I just want to tell you that it is time to once again get back to the Word of God and believe it.

  27. Everything God says here, take it literally, believe it, begin to declare it in your life.

  28. If you have a challenge with finances, you say my God will supply every need of mine according to his riches in glory, by Christ Jesus.

  29. And you can say, on the basis of that scripture, I am now decreeing and declaring finances in my life and wait to see the outcomes, the results that God will bring in your life.

  30. And so God bless you as you become a prophet Ezekiel, who picks God's word, as it is said, and goes prophesizing the valley of dry bones and waits to see the results that come from God.

  31. May the valleys of dry bones in your life turn into the valleys of life.

  32. In Jesus' name, amen.
