It’s All About the Heart

God wants to change hard and hopeless hearts. (Ezekiel 36:25-28, NKJV)

God wants to give us a fresh spirit by taking the stony, hard heart and giving you one that will walk with Him, that will be tender, forgiving, and loving. Regain hope by being willing to allow God to change your heart.

How to go from being hopeless to having great hope. (Ezekiel 37:1-10, NKJV)

Bones is a type of the most hopeless situations you could ever find. What is dried up in your life? Can your hopeless situation change? The Lord knows, and He knows it can!

Believe God can change any situation.

It’s important for dry bones to hear the Word. God’s Word is the beginning of changing any situation. B.O. = power, peace, and provisions. God can bring life out of the most hopeless, helpless, and dead situations. (Romans 4:17, NCV)

Obedience activates favor and the power of God.

Don’t stop before the miracle and don’t give up in the midst of it. Breathe in and breathe out, let it go and let God handle it. Only God and His Word can bring life out of death.

Hear the Word + Speak the Word + Breathe the Word + Have faith in the Word = Life from the Word. (Romans 4:17, NCV; Romans 5:5, NLT)

James highlights the power of prayer through the example of Elijah. Elijah was a human just like us, yet when he prayed earnestly for no rain, there was no rain for three and a half years. When he prayed again, the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. Fervent, righteous prayer can have powerful results, demonstrating God’s ability to intervene through prayer.
