Can These Bones Live?

Sometimes the strongest faith is not the one that speaks most loudly, but the one that depends most fully. Not self-built confidence, not rehearsed declarations of faith, but a quiet, complete reliance on the Lord who knows all things.

Consider the prophet Ezekiel. Brought to a valley of dry, lifeless bones, he faced a question that defied human logic:

“Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, You know.”
— Ezekiel 37:3

Ezekiel did not muster confidence in his own ability to prophesy life. He did not analyze the situation or offer strategic solutions. He simply placed the impossible back into the hands of the One who holds all knowledge and power: “O Lord God, You know.”

The Faith That Rests

This is the faith we are called to walk in. Not faith in our own words, our own strength, or our own understanding. But faith that looks at the dry bones—the impossible situations, the dead dreams, the hopeless circumstances—and says, “Lord, You know.”

You do not need to have all the answers. You need only to know the One who does. Your confidence is not in your ability to speak life, but in His power to give it.

Walk in That Dependence

Today, whatever valley you stand in, let your heart echo Ezekiel's reply. Bring your impossibilities to the God who knows. Rest not in your own understanding, but in His sovereign care. He alone can command breath into bones. He alone can raise what is dead.

Trust Him fully. He knows. And because He knows, you can depend on Him completely.

Prayer Suggestion: Lord, I bring my dry places to You. You know. I rest not in my own strength, but in Yours alone.
