| The Roar of the Lion of Judah |

We were at a worship meeting the other night and the Lord showed me the valley of dry bones in Ezekiel 37. The scripture tells us this is a picture of Israel and God's plan for her. However, the Lord showed me that it is also a picture of the church. There are many lying in the valley and there is a great army that is without life for whatever reason, and there are many. But as I looked I could see that this army had skin . It says in verses 7-10 that the bones came together, sinews were on them, flesh grew, and skin covered them but there was no breath. So what I saw was complete but without breath. Then the Lion from the tribe of Judah leapt forward and began to roar. Although I couldn't hear it audibly I knew that it was a loud, loud, loud roar and it was very long. As the roar went forth the breath of the Lion covered the army on the ground and it rose with a fresh, new breath fit for battle and strong in Him. The Lord is starting to roar again over His church. It is a long, loud victorious roar that is filling that which looks and feels dead with His breath. I delivered this word at the front of the church on Sunday morning service. I had to ask the Lord several times if this was to be spoken now, because of being unsure of myself . As I finished and walked to the back of the church to get back to my seat, a sister was standing at the back with a flag with the Lion on it. I touched it as I went by. As I turned to go up the aisle to my seat a brother at the front of the church was just laying another flag with the Lion on it, down on the platform, and as my eyes looked right from where I was sitting there was a banner with the Lamb and right beside it another banner with the Lion. I had not seen any of these until after I had spoken the word God gave me. How incredible that the word was confirmed three times in a matter of seconds and how great is our God who is about to breath fresh breath into His church. Not just any breath but the breath of the Lion of Judah. |
