Ezekiel for Today and Tomorrow
Chapter 37
The Valley of Dry Bones and the Reunion of Israel and Judah Once more the CONTEXT of this chapter shows clearly that it has NEVER YET come to pass. That it WILL come to pass when God shall set His dwelling and tabernacle in the midst of regathered Israel. It is a prophecy for the Kingdom of God on earth. The hand of the Lord was upon Ezekiel and he was carried in spirit or vision and set down in a valley of dry bones. The prophecy is upon the dry bones, breath will come into them; sinews will be laid; skin will cover the bones; and the covered bones will LIVE!. Ezekiel gave the prophecy and indeed the bones came together and skin covered them and they DID LIVE! The wind is to come on these SLAIN AND BREATH ON THEM AND THEY WILL LIVE! And SO IT WAS, they did live and stood upon their feet like a great army (verses 1-10). What is this? The answer is in verse 11. The House of Israel says their bones are dried up; their hope is gone; they are cut off. The House of Israel has fallen; they have gone into captivity; they have been punished for their sins. It is the last days of this age, the last 42 months of this age. Israel (the peoples of North-West Europe, the British Commonwealth and the United States of America) have met their doom, their destruction, at the hands of the last resurrected Babylon Holy Roman Beast who is guided by a false prophet and his Babylon Mystery religion church. Israel has sinned, their iniquity and wicked abominations have reached up to heaven. God has finally said they must be brought to DEEP REPENTANCE through the fires of literal destruction. Israel is now in the mental state of thinking all is truly LOST, that there is no hope of them ever being a great peoples again. Indeed, how can such a MIGHTY AND GREAT a people as Britain and the United States believe they can ever be so great again, when their people have been so hugely destroyed, when what is left of them are in captivity in the lands of their enemy lovers, scattered, and so many of them now lying dead. Their heart is in despair; they believe there is no more hope for them; they now believe they will go down in history as a "once upon a time a great people, who like other Empires, finally came to an end" (verse 11). But GOD CRIES OUT, "Behold, O my people, I WILL OPEN YOUR GRAVES, AND CAUSE YOU TO COME OUT OF YOUR GRAVES, AND BRING YOU INTO THE LAND OF ISRAEL. And you shall KNOW that I AM THE LORD, when I OPEN your graves, and bring you UP out of your graves, and shall PUT MY SPIRIT IN YOU, and you SHALL LIVE. I will place you in your own land: then shall you KNOW that I THE LORD HAVE SPOKEN IT, AND PERFORMED IT, says the Lord" (verses 12-14). Have you ever read anything like this? The world will see many MIRACLES in the last days! THERE WILL BE THE MIRACLES OF THE FALSE PROPHET. THERE WILL BE THE MIRACLES OF THE TWO WITNESSES IN JERUSALEM. There will be MIGHTY SIGNS in the earth, the sea, and in the heavens. The world will never have ever seen such a time as the last 42 months of this age. The Great Tribulation will bring such death and horror that there will be no time before or after it that will be the like. The Day of the Lord will be the time when, if Jesus did not come back to save us from ourselves, no human flesh would remain alive. The Battle of Armageddon will be horrific as Jesus and His armies destroy the armies of the Europe Beast power and the kings of the East. Jesus said in Luke 21 that the last years of this age would be the time when all things that are written will come to pass. THERE IS MUCH WRITTEN - THERE IS MUCH TO COME TO PASS! BUT HERE IN EZEKIEL 37 YOU ARE READING ABOUT A MIRACLE FOR THE LAST DAYS THAT REALLY BLOWS THE MIND!!! GOD WILL PERFORM A PHYSICAL RESURRECTION OF SO MANY SLAIN ISRAELITES THAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE A MASSIVE ARMY. THEY WILL RISE, THEY WILL COME BACK TO THE LAND GOD PROMISED THEIR FATHERS ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND JACOB. TRULY NO SUCH MIGHTY A MIRACLE HAS EVER TAKEN PLACE IN THE HISTORY OF ISRAEL. BUT HERE YOU HAVE THE WORD OF THE LORD THAT IT WILL TAKE PLACE!! IS ANYTHING IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE LORD? NO! NO! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE LORD TO DO. HE HAS WRITTEN WHAT YOU HAVE JUST READ, AND HE WILL PERFORM IT!! ISRAEL - YOU ARE SINNERS - YOU ARE A WICKED GENERATION. YOUR EVIL AND ABOMINATIONS REACH TO HEAVEN. YOU WILL BE PUNISHED. YOUR DAY OF RECKONING IS COMING. WHAT YOU HAVE SOWN YOU WILL REAP. GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS. ALL PEOPLES WHO HAVE SINNED AS MIGHTY AS YOUR SINS ARE, HAVE INDEED FALLEN, HAVE DESTROYED THEMSELVES. MANY MIGHTY AND GREAT NATIONS AND EMPIRES HAVE WRITTEN THEIR HISTORY IN FINAL DESTRUCTION. YOU WILL BE NO DIFFERENT. IF YOU DO NOT REPENT AS NATIONS I TELL YOU YOU WILL PERISH BY FAMINE, PESTILENCE AND THE SWORD OF WAR! YET GOD TELLS YOU THE HAPPY ENDING - YOUR SLAIN WILL RISE AGAIN - AS A GREAT ARMY YOUR PEOPLE WILL RISE FROM THE GRAVE AND GOD WILL PUT HIS SPIRIT IN YOU. THEN YOU WILL INDEED KNOW THAT GOD IS ALIVE, THAT HE DOES EXIST, THAT HE WILL STILL LOVE YOU, TO YOU HE WILL GIVE THE LAND THAT HE PROMISED TO ABRAHAM. Judah and Israel REUNITED It is the time in earth's history that Israel and Judah will be brought back as ONE PEOPLE again. All Jews of any scholastic mind of Old Testament history KNOW that the House of Israel and the House of Judah since their SEPARATION after the death of Solomon, HAVE NEVER BEEN RESTORED AS ONE PEOPLE - AS ONE NATION OF 13 FAMILIES OR TRIBES OF JACOB ISRAEL. THE TWO STICKS - ONE FOR JUDAH AND HIS COMPANIONS OF
THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL. THE TWO STICKS GOD WILL MAKE AS ONE STICK. THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL AND JUDAH WILL BE GATHERED OUT OF THE NATIONS AND THEY WILL BE BROUGHT BACK TO THE HOLY LAND. THERE THEY WILL BE ONE NATION AGAIN. THEY WILL BE CLEANSED OF THEIR SINS AND GOD SAYS, "SO SHALL THEY BE MY PEOPLE AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD" (verses 15- 23). Ah, LOOK, see what is to happen, DAVID (RAISED FROM THE DEAD AT THE RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS AT CHRIST'S COMING) WILL BE THEIR KING. THEY WILL WALK IN THE JUDGMENT AND STATUTES OF GOD. THEY WILL DWELL IN THE LAND GIVEN TO JACOB, THEY AND THEIR CHILDREN AND THE CHILDREN OF THEIR CHILDREN, FOREVER; AND DAVID SHALL BE THEIR PRINCE (verses 24-25). IT IS THE TRUTH WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN IN ISAIAH AND JEREMIAH. A TRUTH YET FOR THE FUTURE AHEAD OF US TODAY. YES IT IS THE TIME GOD MAKES A COVENANT OF **PEACE** WITH THEM; AND SAYS GOD, "WILL SET MY SANCTUARY IN THE MIDST OF THEM FOR EVERMORE. MY TABERNACLE ALSO SHALL BE WITH THEM: YES, I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE NY PEOPLE. AND THE HEATHEN SHALL KNOW THAT I THE LORD DO SANCTIFY ISRAEL, WHEN MY SANCTUARY SHALL BE IN THE MIDST OF THEM FOR EVERMORE" (verses 26-280. A most remarkable, sober, but very INSPIRING chapter of Ezekiel. Jesus will return; He will raise from the death many slain Israelites, they with the ones still alive, shall return to the Holy Land. David (the king of old Israel) will be raised to immortal life as will thousands of saints. David will be the king again over them, the 12 apostles, as Jesus promised in the Gospels, will each rule one of the twelve tribes. God in the form of Christ Jesus will dwell among them, plant His sanctuary in their midst forever more. Oh yes, the nations as well as the people of Israel will then KNOW THAT GOD IS GOD. IT IS THE TIME OF THE START OF THE EARTH BEING FULL OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE LORD AS THE WATERS COVER THE SEA BEDS! SO IT IS WRITTEN AND SO IT WILL COME TO PASS! .........................
