introducing “seeds of David” a series of 20 golden seed packets from god’s messengers
PART TWOThe 36th chapter of Ezekiel is a Father’s admonition to His once-upon-a-time called-out children. These children had allowed themselves to be overcome by the worldliness around them. Because they had failed to completely purge their promised land of the heathen and their ungodly customs, the fruit of their disobedience’s had come back to haunt them. They disregarded but a small part, only a remnant of the heathen, perhaps believing they could live with that “little leaven” in their heavenly homes. The leaven of course, represents the enemy of their soul—the devil, he who refuses to tolerate anyone outside his own, and yet even those tolerated ones serve as his vassalage’s.
Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I have spoken in My jealousy and in My fury, because ye have borne the shame of the heathen:. Ezekiel 36: 6
In hindsight, today’s generation looks back and is bewildered by Israel’s belligerence. Indeed, as mystifying as Israel’s behavior may seem, what is more remarkable is that Ezekiel’s words stretch almost 2,600 years into the future to touch on an identical state of affairs. Touché, God’s ancient admonishments endure. An admonishment, however, is only as good as the soil in which it is planted. (Luke 8: 15) To not leave Ezekiel’s warnings for future scholars to misconstrue, the centuries surrounding this prophet’s life have seen God send innumerable fellow servants bearing similar messages until finally His only beloved Son made the journey of reconciliation. (Mark 12: 1-10) Whilst with us, Jesus was no less insistent in His admonitions calling us to “Come out from among them, to touch not the unclean thing and in so doing He would receive us”.
Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before Me as the uncleanness of a removed woman Ezekiel 36: 17
The children of Israel had fallen into disarray, and we find our “modern church” in the same condition; unable to pull itself back from the abyss that it and the world are sliding irrevocably toward. Many of the self-satisfied church leaders of today are nothing but gospel businessmen abusing the Word of God for advantage. Steeped in tradition and selfish pursuit, they make the Word of God of none effect. (Mark 7:13)
And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned My Holy Name, when they said to them, these are the people of the Lord, and are gone forth out of His land : Ezekiel 36: 20
We have come to accept the mistaken belief that we are to make the world our home. And that it is to be accomplished through the worldly avenues of politics, business and rubbing shoulders with the world. The Son of God did not come to earth to lead His children into worldly kingdom building; He came to show us a way of escape.
The true Children of God are strangers and pilgrims on this earth; our Kingdom is not of this world. Who told you that the material things of this life are a sign of God’s blessing? Was it the Bible? If that is so, then I ask you to take a close look at the lives the amazing men of faith lived whilst they were on earth. Take a look at their sample, not necessarily the sermon you hear in church. Any leader worth his “salt” leads the way—not points the way, good or bad, that’s what a dedicated leader does. If you are not following the Master’s sample then you are not truly living the faith life. I’m not saying you should become an itinerant preacher, although a taste of that life may help put your life into perspective at this point. If you are feeling “bottled up”—frustrated about your life of faith, then it’s time to step out and exercise a little more faith than you’re normally accustomed to. The world talks a lot about breaking out of the “box”, and that’s what you need to do! Do something good, kind or loving for another person you don’t know or particularly like. Download a tract of this site (see free downloads) then go out and tell someone else about the only One who loves them more than anything in this whole universe. Going to church won’t save you, be the church, you are the church. Only one life, will soon be past, only what’s done for Christ will last.
For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. Ezekiel 36: 24, 25

DRY BONES BY LAUREN DAIGLE
Ezekiel.37:1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
Ezekiel 37:2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
“I am the River of Life, and the river of My Word never stopped flowing. Why is your path to My river overgrown with the cares and rudiments of this life? I sent My Aquarius, My water bearer, yet you would not so much as pick up your water pot and make your way to the River of Life to fetch for yourself or your little ones. The water troughs are empty, dry, parched, but you would not be as Rebecca and humble yourselves to fetch water from My well to water your flocks nor the flocks of a stranger.”
Ezekiel 37:3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
Ezekiel 37:4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
Ezekiel 37:5 Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
“Hear the Words of My mouth, for out of it flows the river of life. Your conduits are dry and dusty; oil them with My mouth for is new wine that pours forth. I am even now turning water into Wine, and new Wine pours forth in great abundance. Drink and ye shall live, drink and your soul shall once more enter into the joy of former years. I breathe out the Water of Life for these final days. Did I not say that out of the mouth of babes and sucklings My praise would come? Come back to Me and your soul shall live. Be as a little child, and I will once again open the floodgates and pour out such a blessing that there will not be room enough to hold it. Come, I say, for the hour is late and the sun has set. There are only a few short moments of light before darkness sets in upon the world.”
Ezekiel 37:6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 37:7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
Ezekiel 37:8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
Ezekiel 37:9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
Ezekiel 37:10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
Ezekiel 37:11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
EZE.37:12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
“The land of the spirit lies open before you. Take up the Keys, and open the portal that stands right there in your midst. Remember the days of your youth and step out once again. By faith, the doors will open. By faith, the Keys will turn in the lock of My will. By faith, I will lift you up above all those around you, and you will once again be a mighty spiritual army. Your destiny lies before you -just beyond the veil. I am calling; it is never too late to step into the “racer”. Yea, it has been sitting there dusty and unused, but the engine is still good. I have prepared new fuel, high octane Jett fuel for the lift you will need to get over the next mountain.”
Ezekiel 37:13 And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
Ezekiel 37:14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD.
“Your land is My land. It is not this world and worldly, but it is Heavenly. Only Heavenly brew will get you there and only the Keys of the Kingdom can give you access to this high octane, end time spirit fuel.”
Ezekiel 37:15 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
Ezekiel 37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions:
Ezekiel 37:17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
Ezekiel 37:18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
“Behold, old things are passed away; all things are become new. I, the Lion of Judah, will take the old garments of flesh, and with My Word, with My new wine, make of thee a new staff, a staff that will not break in the darkness that is but moments away. It will be a strong stick, for the former things are passed away. The old will have become new. This will I do at the touch of your faith.”
Ezekiel 37:19 Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
Ezekiel 37:20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
Ezekiel 37:21 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
“My land, the Kingdom of God is at hand. I wish to take up the Keys turned to sword. Those of faith are the Key that I will turn to a mighty sword. I will write My name on that sword and smite the enemy that even now surrounds you and tries to bring to naught the promises of David.”
Ezekiel 37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.
Ezekiel 37:23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
“This is My call to the Children of David, come out from among them and be ye separate and I will receive you to Myself. I will raise up the army of David. I will put flesh, and I will put sinew and I will loosen those old dry bones and oil those joints. I will pour My fresh new wine upon your heads and into your hearts. You shall be My people and I will be your God.”
Ezekiel 37:24 And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
Ezekiel 37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince forever.
“Do you not see? Do you not yet understand? The land of Jacob is the land of the spirit, where I dwell and where your brethren, those that have gone on before you now dwell. These wait upon your command; these wait for your call. Have I not said it, and will I not do it? You make the next call. We wait on you to make the call. There is a great and mighty army awaiting your command; lift up the hand of faith, and give the call. I need but a Gideon’s band to do My will there in the physical realm. I need but a few to do My will there, and I and My armies will sweep down from the spirit and cover the mountains and the obstacles that surround you and cut them down to their real size.”
Ezekiel 37:26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
Ezekiel 37:27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Ezekiel 37:28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.
“I am coming. Be My heralds. I call this time once again at the edge of time, before the curtain falls and gross darkness the people. I call upon those that would forsake the system and forsake the old structure, the old ways and move with Me into the spirit by using the keys and your spirit helpers and the power invested in you. Forsake the pottage and take up your birthright. Be My missionaries once again, for the time of the end has come. Take up the banner of David and fly into the abyss. It’s time for free fall. I will lift you up; My promises to you will buoy you up and the shackles will be loosed and you will be free.”
“Hear the Words of My mouth, for out of it flows the river of life. Your conduits are dry and dusty; oil them with My mouth for is new wine that pours forth.”
PART ONEEzekiel 36 and 37 reveal compelling parallels to God’s latter day saints; upon whom, the Bible declares, “the end of the world has come”. (1 Cor. 10:11)
The Bible says of itself: “For the prophecies came not in old time by the will of man; but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost”. (2 Peter 1:21) Bible prophecy is indeed an intriguing study and has captured the imagination of every generation. However, it is also a textural pictogram of carnal man’s real-to-life struggle with his own nature; man’s “diary” written by God, a candid eulogy; no cover-ups, but raw truth, poetic, romantic, whimsical, and at times disagreeable, distasteful, and offensive. Even so, it is an honest account of us. It is not a historical biography written by the winning side. It is unbiased, which is why you can trust it.
The Bible; our guidebook
A testimonial of man’s antics since creation, the bible succinctly confirms the well-known adage: “One thing man has learnt from history is that he never learns from history.” These two chapters remind me of the story of a man on death row. After his execution, prison staff went to clean his cell, and on the walls many times over was written the words: “If I only had, if I only had”; such a sad tribute to a life gone wrong.
Although there are also many success stories in the Bible, Ezekiel 36 and 37 offer modern day children of God pertinent testimony on the mistake of not staying separate from the world. We may frown at Israel’s lack of obedience and at times outright rebellion. Yet, isn’t it apparent that our generation has also gone the way of all flesh? Paul’s admonishment in 2 Timothy 2:4 seems to have fallen on deaf ears. “No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please Him that hath chosen him to be a soldier”. Has history completed its cycle in our modern age? Well Ezekiel 36 and 37 seem to offer this scenario.
Yours affectionately, Uncle Screwtape
As God’s called out children we are as accountable for our actions as were the children of Israel for theirs. When it is difficult or impossible to discern the difference between a Christian and those that live for this world and the treasures and rewards it offers, are we not as one of them so vividly defined in Ezekiel 36: 3 & 4? “Thus saith the Lord God; because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken up in the lips of talkers, and are an infamy of the people:
Can it be said in the lips of the talkers in this generation; “that surely these ones are not set apart? Do they follow hard after their Master as we follow after ours? Are they not like us; swallowed up with the cares and riches of this life?”
A well-known Christian celebrity once said of the sad state of his nation today: “We blame society, but we are society”. The Words and actions of Jesus did not leave any impression in the minds of His earliest followers that they should become like those they were trying to lead into the Kingdom of Heaven. In truth, all that Jesus said and did was in opposition to the very idea of becoming part of the world. Hebrews chapter eleven aptly describes the attitude we as Christians should adopt in relation to the world, 13:“These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. 14: For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. 15: And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they may have had opportunity to have returned. 16: But now they desire a better country, that is, an Heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for He hath prepared for them a city.”
“Thus saith the Lord God; because the enemy, hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession: Ezekiel 36:2
To allow the enemy access to the high places (our hearts), through the avenue of worldliness is giving him possession of the most scared part of God’s temple. Be not conformed to the world that surrounds you but be ye transformed by putting on the mind of Christ. True children of God are called to spiritual prosperity! What is this abundant life we hear so much of? Abundant in the things of this world was not what Jesus was saying in Matthew 6:19-21. Where our treasures are there will we find our hearts! The army of the Lord is consumed with living “the good life” and has forsaken its First Love.
“I see terrible destruction. Everything is dark—very dark and dreary. There’s a terrible eerie feeling. The night has fallen, and all I can see is destruction. For as far as I can see, I see only ruin. I see dead bodies lying everywhere and there’s a horrible foreboding feeling.”…Lifelines Vol.29
Where are My ecclesia, My army of the end?
Lost hope in expectation their ranks in disarray;
Are spread as bones along the valley floor
The long years pass as shadows finger the mist of darkness gathering
And in our world has crept an uninvited foe
Distant comes the prophet’s call
Pledged promise resonate from ancient holy tome
Arise dry bones your time has come to face the primal horde
Prophesy oh winds, prophesy upon these bones
And breathe upon these slain that they may live again
To raise for Me an army defying Satan’s swarm
An army with one purpose who fear no wraith-like threat
To thwart the rising tide and in the end to naught
DRY BONES BY LAUREN DAIGLE
Ezekiel 36:1 Also, thou son of man, prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, and say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD:
Ezekiel 36:2 Thus saith the Lord GOD; because the enemy hath said against you, Aha, even the ancient high places are ours in possession:
“What are these ancient high places that the enemy desires to possess? Where does the battle rage? It rages in the minds and hearts of man. The first place of attack is upon the mind, and where the mind goes the heart will follow. Put on the mind of Christ; throw off the lies and deceits of Satan. Stand fast lest the high place of your heart be his prey. Give worship to God and let the usurper flee under fire -the fire of God. Call on Jesus to fully possess you. Today the battle …tomorrow the victory song.”
Ezekiel 36:3 Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that ye might be a possession unto the residue of the heathen, and ye are taken up in the lips of talkers, and are an infamy of the people:
“Where is the “hope of the future“? Swallowed up on every side? The talk of the town? You see how the mighty have fallen. The promise to your father David has become a by-word and infamy taken up in the lips of gossip.”
Ezekiel 36:4 Therefore, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD; Thus saith the Lord GOD to the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes, and to the cities that are forsaken, which became a prey and derision to the residue of the heathen that are round about;
“The plough of David is forsaken; the oxen stand idle. The hills and valleys are laid waste; the cities are also forsaken. Where is the town crier? Son of man, did I not call thee a watchman unto the lost of this generation? This last generation who call out from the earth weeping and shouting, ‘Come, for the time is spent and we are not saved. The residue of man consumes us; the heathen eat us up as locusts lay waste the young blades of wheat.”
Ezekiel 36:5 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea, which have appointed my land into their possession with the joy of all their heart, with despiteful minds, to cast it out for a prey.
“I will cause the Words of David to live again through the mouths of those children that are born out of season, a generation that was not yet born will rise to the call of David. “
Ezekiel 36:6 Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my fury, because ye have borne the shame of the heathen:
Ezekiel 36:7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I have lifted up mine hand, Surely the heathen that are about you, they shall bear their shame.
“Come out of her My people; come out of her and be ye separate. Touch not the unclean thing, and bear not their shame one moment longer. For you are a peculiar people. You are a chosen generation, the generation of David. My David, the king of the beggars, and you, My beggar brides, are destined to rule with Me in the kingdom to come.”
Ezekiel 36:8 But ye, O mountains of Israel, ye shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people of Israel; for they are at hand to come.
“The Son of Righteousness arises with healing in His wings, saying: ‘The fullness of the earth is Mine; I will redeem that which I created at the beginning of time. The meek will inherit the earth and everything that is therein. I will snatch it back from the destroyers of earth and sea. These are the residue of men, those that unrightfully claim. They are the heathen that possessed with despiteful minds and corrupt hearts and took as prey the uttermost part of My creation. In righteousness do I judge and make war, and in righteousness will I rebuke, and in righteousness will I cause the earth to bloom and flower and bring forth fruit … to the saving of those nations whom I will redeem from the heathen and their usurper king.”
Ezekiel 36:9 For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn unto you, and ye shall be tilled and sown:
Ezekiel 36:10 And I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, even all of it: and the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be builded:
Ezekiel 36:11 And I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bring fruit: and I will settle you after your old estates, and will do better unto you than at your beginnings: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
“My Word will not return unto Me void, for I will cause it to bring forth fruit. Repent and be saved. Repent and know that I am your God. Repent and I will raise up your estate and do better for you and empower you to rule and reign with Me for eternity. But first My beloved, ..My little Davids: To war!”
Ezekiel .36:12 Yea, I will cause men to walk upon you, even my people Israel; and they shall possess thee, and thou shalt be their inheritance, and thou shalt no more henceforth bereave them of men.
Ezekiel 36:13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because they say unto you, Thou land devourest up men, and hast bereaved thy nations:
Ezekiel 36:14 Therefore thou shalt devour men no more, neither bereave thy nations any more, saith the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 36:15 Neither will I cause men to hear in thee the shame of the heathen any more, neither shalt thou bear the reproach of the people any more, neither shalt thou cause thy nations to fall any more, saith the Lord GOD.
“Thus saith the Lord: the nation of David will rise to the saving of the nations, but not as the former, for the Words of David are as strong drink to them that partake in this new day. It is a new day that I have created from the ashes of the old. For now is the time of new wine, a new vintage for a new day and new era of action.”
Ezekiel 36:16 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Ezekiel 36:17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.
Ezekiel 36:18 Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols wherewith they had polluted it:
Ezekiel 36:19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
Ezekiel 36:20 And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
“Thus did the former and such were the ways of those that forsook the Words of David the Words of God. But…
Ezekiel 36:21 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
Ezekiel 36:22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name’s sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
“What is man that I am mindful of him and the son of man that I should visit him? Nay, I will do this thing for My servant David’s sake and for My Word sake.”
Ezekiel 36:23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
Ezekiel 36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
Ezekiel 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
“I will once again open the cisterns of My Word and pour and pour out in this day upon all flesh. The Words of David will be a catalyst to those that heed his Words -My Words- and they will prophesy and dream and see visions upon visions of what is to come and what now is.”
Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
Ezekiel 36:28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
Ezekiel 36:29 I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
“I called your David a prophet of the wind, indeed, that he was and that he is. The wind of change has come once again upon his children and through the Words of David a new generation shall rise to meet the challenges of the dark days ahead. Your David was called by Me and anointed by Me as My prophet of the end, My Moses and My David. You will see a fulfillment of My Words through the mouth of David your king.”
Ezekiel 36:30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.
“Now is the time of new corn; and as I swore by My servant David, I will lay no famine upon My obedient ones. A famine is upon the land, and it will only increase in intensity. Yet I will not lay this burden on these that follow closely, these that take up the seeds of David, these that forsake their old ways and come unto Me with freshness of heart and a renewed spirit.”
Ezekiel 36:31 Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
Ezekiel 36:32 Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord GOD, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel.
Ezekiel 36:33 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be builded.
Ezekiel 36:34 And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.
EZE.36:35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and are inhabited.
Ezekiel 36:36 Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the LORD build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.
Ezekiel 36:37 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.
Ezekiel 36:38 As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
“Call unto Me with a whole heart and I will do this thing. I will build and I will pour out fresh wine, fresh oil and fresh corn. Your cups and basins, your pots and vessels of all sorts will be filled to overflowing, more than ye yourselves could hold in many lifetimes. The time of dearth is upon this world. Flee to Zarephath. My keys will open a way in the wilderness. Embrace the Words of David and the Words of Maria and drink deeply of the new wine that I am yet pouring forth from the cisterns of David.”
…to be continued
The time of dearth is upon this world. Flee to Zarephath. My keys will open a way in the wilderness.
A Spirit Trip
“You’ll get the most out of it if you sit back and let Me talk. Sit in the room with Me and let Me tell you a few secrets. It’s like just you and I are in the room. I keep it very personal.”
Those that follow Me
Part 2–The continued answer to the question posed to Jesus, “Was it hard to never have a wife while on Earth?
Jesus speaking:
“I was requiring many of My disciples to give up the same thing—getting married and having children, either for the rest of their life or temporarily, so that they could learn of Me in the short time we had together. It was better that they were free to go and preach the Gospel without the added worry about a family that would be dependent on them. It’s Godly to care for your own, yet if they made God’s family theirs, and the family of believers their own family and cared for them rather than having their own children at this time, this would be a whole lot better for getting the Gospel out and getting news of salvation spreading.”
