Title: The%20Valley%20of%20Dry%20Bones
1Can a nation be born in a day?
Isaiah 668 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath
seen such things? Shall the earth be made to
bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born
at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she
brought forth her children.
2The Valley of Dry Bones
- Ezekiel 371 The hand of the LORD was upon me,
and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and
set me down in the midst of the valley which was
full of bones, - The Dry Bones symbolize decay, death,
hopelessness
3In The Midst of the Valley of Despair
Psalms 61-4 O LORD, rebuke me not in thine
anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
Have mercy upon me, O LORD for I am weak O
LORD, heal me for my bones are vexed. My soul is
also sore vexed but thou, O LORD, how long?
Return, O LORD, deliver my soul oh save me for
thy mercies' sake.
Psalms 2214-15 I am poured out like water, and
all my bones are out of joint my heart is like
wax it is melted in the midst of my bowels. My
strength is dried up like a potsherd and my
tongue cleaveth to my jaws and thou hast brought
me into the dust of death.
4Can These Bones Live?
- Ezekiel 372-3 And caused me to pass by them
round about and, behold, there were very many in
the open valley and, lo, they were very dry. And
he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones
live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
5The Bones in Prophecy
- Ezekiel 374 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon
these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones,
hear the word of the Lord. - Prophesy upon (naba) means to inspire with a
prediction that embodies a Divine promise.
6Gods Physical and Spiritual Promise to Restore
Israel
- Ezekiel 374-6 Again he said unto me, Prophesy
upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry
bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus saith the
Lord GOD unto these bones Behold, I will cause
breath (ruwach-spiritual) to enter into you, and
ye shall live And I will lay sinews upon you,
and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you
with skin, (physical) and put breath in you,
(Neshamah-Gen 27)) and ye shall live (rebirth)
and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
7The Holocaust (WWII)
Perhaps Nothing in the history of the Jewish
people symbolizes the Valley of Dry Bones more
vividly than the pictures of The Holocaust
Photos from WW II archives showing massive graves
of bones and skeletons of thousands of Jewish
corpses. Surely no people dared hope to emerge as
a nation from these pits.

8The Jewish Problem The Final Solution
Conspiracy
The target European countries and their Jewish
populations, a page from the protocol of the
Wannsee Conference held in January 1942. The
meeting took place in a Berlin suburb to
coordinate the "Final Solution," the killing of
all Jews in Europe - between the SS and all
German ministries involved. (Total 8,000,000)
The Solution later called for Jewish
extermination in the Arab Middle East.(Haj
Al amin Husseini)
9One-Third via A Fiery Trial
Zechariah 139 And I (God) will bring the third
part through the fire, and will refine them as
silver is refined, and will try them as gold is
tried they shall call on my name, and I will
hear them I will say, It is my people and they
shall say, The LORD is my God.
One third of Jews survived the Final Solution and
formed the Zionist State of Israel. But, Israel
has not yet learned to cry, Blessed is he who
comes in the name of the Lord. (Matthew 3339)
Jesus will rescue Israel, when Israel finally
turns to him.
10Oh Ye Dry Bones, Hear the Word of the Lord!

14The Furnace of Worldly Affliction
Ezekiel 2218-22 Son of man, the house of Israel
is to me become dross all they are brass, and
tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the
furnace they are even the dross of silver.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD Because ye are
all become dross, behold, therefore I will gather
you into the midst of Jerusalem. As they gather
silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin,
into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire
upon it, to melt it so will I gather you in mine
anger and in my fury, and I will leave you there,
and melt you. Yea, I will gather you, and blow
upon you in the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be
melted in the midst thereof. As silver is melted
in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye be
melted in the midst thereof and ye shall know
that I the LORD have poured out my fury upon you.
15Alive Again, and Standing Strong
- Ezekiel 3710 So I prophesied as he commanded
me, and the breath came into them, and they
lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding
great army. - Zechariah 126 In that day will I make the
governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among
the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf
and they shall devour all the people round about,
on the right hand and on the left and Jerusalem
shall be inhabited again in her own place, even
in Jerusalem.
16God Will Remember The Abrahamic Covenant
- Ezekiel 1659-60 For thus saith the Lord GOD I
will even deal with thee as thou hast done, which
hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with
thee in the days of thy youth, and I will
establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.
17Whom do the Dry Bones Symbolize?
- Ezekiel 3711 Then he said unto me, Son of man,
these bones are the whole house of Israel
behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our
hope is lost we are cut off for our parts.

- Ezekiel 3712-13 Therefore prophesy and say unto
them, Thus saith the Lord GOD Behold, O my
people, I will open your graves, and cause you to
come up out of your graves, and bring you into
the land of Israel. And ye shall know that I am
the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my
people, and brought you up out of your graves,
19Israel and The Fig Tree
Revelation 613 And the stars of heaven fell unto
the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her
untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty
wind.
Mark 1120-22 And in the morning, as they passed
by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the
roots. And Peter calling to remembrance saith
unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou
cursedst is withered away. And Jesus answering
saith unto them, Have faith in God.
20The Fig Tree Analogy
- Ezekiel 3714 And shall put my spirit in you,
and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your
own land then shall ye know that I the LORD have
spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD. (The
Lord is presently performing the miracle of the
Fig Tree before the nations.) - Matthew 2432 Now learn a parable of the fig
tree When his branch is yet tender, and putteth
forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh (the
kingdom of Heaven is near)
21An Everlasting Covenant
- Psalms 1057-11 He is the LORD our God his
judgments are in all the earth. He hath
remembered his covenant for ever, the word which
he commanded to a thousand generations. Which
covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto
Isaac And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a
law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant
Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan,
the lot of your inheritance
22A Remant is Re-gathered For A Heavenly Purpose
- Jeremiah 3133 But this shall be the covenant
that I will make with the house of Israel After
those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in
their inward parts, and write it in their hearts
and will be their God, and they shall be my
people. - Luke 172-73 To perform the mercy promised to our
fathers, and to remember his holy covenant The
oath which he sware to our father Abraham, (Acts
325 Hebrews 8-10)
23A New Covenant With a Reborn Israel
- Hebrews 810 For this is the covenant that I will
make with the house of Israel after those days,
saith the Lord I will put my laws into their
mind, and write them in their hearts and I will
be to them a God, and they shall be to me a
people - Hebrews 1016 This is the covenant that I will
make with them after those days, saith the Lord,
I will put my laws into their hearts, and in
their minds will I write them
24God is the Architect of Birth
- Isaiah 669-10 Shall I bring to the birth, and
not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD shall I
cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith
thy God. Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad
with her, all ye that love her rejoice for joy
with her, all ye that mourn for her - Isaiah 6614 And when ye see this, your heart
shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like
an herb and the hand of the LORD shall be known
toward his servants, and his indignation toward
his enemies.
25May 14, 1948 Israel is reborn, Physically
- On May 14, 1948, at 400 p.m., an historic event
was about to occur. The leaders of the Jewish
community in what was then called Palestine
gathered in the Tel Aviv Museum on Rothschild
Blvd., Tel Aviv, to declare the establishment of
an old/new country - the STATE OF ISRAEL. - Israel reborn, but only Physically
26It was Big News in 1948
It was a miracle of Biblical proportion Never
before in the history of human civilization had a
nation been absent from the world stage and
resurfaced again 2000 years later.
Imagine the Headlines When Israel is Reborn,
Spiritually. It will mean peace for the whole
world!
27US President Truman Recognized Israels Birth
America, a Judeo-Christian nation, was at the
zenith of its world power when God moved to
restore Israel into the Promised Land. God
blessed the USA in order to bless Israel, and the
same curse or blessing remains fundamental in
Gods plans.
Six Arab nations launched a war of extermination
on the new State of Israelthey failed, and the
Israeli-Arab Conflict has ever since consumed the
world. Eventually it will bring all nations
together against Gods chosen people, and her
true King.
28Judgment is Coming on the Persecutors of Zion
- Ezekiel 2825-26 Thus saith the Lord GOD When I
shall have gathered the house of Israel from the
people among whom they are scattered, and shall
be sanctified in them in the sight of the
heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that
I have given to my servant Jacob. And they shall
dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and
plant vineyards yea, they shall dwell with
confidence, when I have executed judgments upon
all those that despise them round about them and
they shall know that I am the LORD their God.
29Israel Will Be Spiritually Born in a Day (Day of
the Lord)
- Romans 1125-27 For I would not, brethren,
that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest
ye should be wise in your own conceits that
blindness in part is happened to Israel, until
the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. And so
all Israel shall be saved as it is written,
There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and
shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob For this
is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away
their sins.
30God Shall Bless all Nations( Israel Becomes Head
of Nations )
- Psalms 1101-3 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit
thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies
thy footstool. The LORD shall send the rod of thy
strength out of Zion rule thou in the midst of
thine enemies. Thy people shall be willing in the
day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness
from the womb of the morning thou hast the dew
of thy youth. (Israelthe head, not the tail of
nations-Deuteronomy 2813) - Genesis 2217-18 That in blessing I will bless
thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed
as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which
is upon the sea shore and thy seed shall possess
the gate of his enemies And in thy seed shall
all the nations of the earth be blessed because
thou hast obeyed my voice.
31Can These Bones Live?
- Gods Prophetic Word Says They Can
32Can a nation be born in a day? Can an evil
infested world be saved?
God will very soon act to rescue a nation that
has walked in the midst of a beastly fire, and
lo, the form of the other man walking in the
fire, is like unto the Son of God Psalms 234
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil for thou
art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort
me.
