Christian Devotional – May 21, 2013

VERSE:

Ezekiel 37:3–He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.”

TRUTH:

God sometimes asks us questions that we think are odd. Yet, Ezekiel didn’t get flustered or state what would have been the obvious, “Um, Lord, they’re dead bones. Of course they can’t live.” Ezekiel trusted and relied on God to do whatever He wanted. He knew that God is capable of doing anything and he responded in faith to God’s question, stating that only God knows what God is capable of. No matter what we are facing, God is able to bring us through. Will we have faith in Him and trust that He knows what is best in every situation and that He is able to do exactly what He wants done?

RESPONSE:

Father, sometimes the situations I face seem overwhelming, yet You always have an answer for each of them. You are able to do whatever You desire in each circumstance. I will trust in You and will wait on You to lead me and use me in whatever way You choose.
