Jonah: On Stage, In Cinemas May 2 Only

Jonah: On Stage, In Cinemas May 2 Only!

When God calls Jonah to offer mercy and forgiveness to the people of Nineveh, he runs straight ... in the opposite direction! As is often the case, one bad choice leads to another and soon Jonah's "get-away" ship is on the verge of destruction amidst a terrible storm. To save themselves, the ship's crew tosses Jonah overboard ... and into the waiting mouth of one ginormous fish.

But as Jonah discovers on his long journey, God is always willing to offer anyone another chance—Ninevites and run-away prophets alike!

DEVOTION: 

Ezekiel 37:1-14  English Standard Version (ESV)

The Valley of Dry Bones

37 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley;[a] it was full of bones. And he led me around among them, and behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and behold, they were very dry. And he said to me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" And I answered, "O Lord God, you know." Then he said to me, "Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath[b] to enter you, and you shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord."

So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I prophesied, there was a sound, and behold, a rattling,[c] and the bones came together, bone to its bone. And I looked, and behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh had come upon them, and skin had covered them. But there was no breath in them. Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, Thus says the Lord God: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live." 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army.

11 Then he said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, 'Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are indeed cut off.' 12 Therefore prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will open your graves and raise you from your graves, O my people. And I will bring you into the land of Israel. 13 And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people. 14 And I will put my Spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you shall know that I am the Lord; I have spoken, and I will do it, declares the Lord."

 

We don't talk about it much, nor do we even really think about it, but the Day of the Lord is imminent.  It is coming.  It may come today.  It may come 100 years from now.  One thing we do know is that it is coming.  What is this Day of the Lord?  It is the day of judgment.  It is the day that is prophesied at the end of this passage of Ezekiel. 

 

On that day the Lord will raise His people from the dead.  Those who have died in faith, believed in Him as their Lord and Savior, and trusted in His Words will rise BODILY from the dead, and those who are left on the earth will meet them and the Lord in the air.  Then He will restore the creation to what it was before sin entered it. 

 

Don't believe me?  Read 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 some time.  I love using those verses at funerals.  It reminds us that although we die, yet shall we live! 

 

You, if you love and believe in Christ, you are the people of Israel that Ezekiel prophesies today.  You are His people, and He will bring you into the Promised Land of heaven!  Praise the Lord!

 

Let us pray: Lord, give me peace as I deal with the day to day stuff in this world, knowing that one day you will take it all and raise it up, including my very body, to eternal perfect life.  Give me peace Lord Jesus.  Amen.
