Text: Ezekiel 37:1-14; Matthew 28:1-8
- THE VALLEY OF DRY BONES: THE PLACE OF HOPE Ezekiel 37
- Ten times God promises that the dry bones of this valley are not their final reality.
- The reviving of the dry bones signified God’s plan for restoration.
- The vision shows that Israel’s new life and not the circumstances of the people.
- Putting “breath” by God’s Spirit into the bones showed that God would restore them both physically and spiritually.
