What Is Revival and How Can We Receive It? (A Bible Study on Ezekiel 36-37)

Today, we are exploring one of my favorite biblical narratives—the vision of the dry bones in Ezekiel 36 and 37. This story is a profound illustration of revival, where God promises to cleanse us from impurities, give us a new heart, and put a new spirit within us. We see this promise come to life in Ezekiel's vision of dry bones being reassembled and brought back to life through the breath of God.

This story has connections to other parts of the Bible. We see the theme of God breathing life into humanity, from the creation of Adam to Jesus breathing the Holy Spirit onto his disciples in John 20. This act of revival is not just about being physically alive; it's about being spiritually awakened and empowered by God's Spirit.

Revival is not exclusive to certain people or moments. It's available to all of us, regardless of where we are or what we're going through. God is constantly ready to breathe life into our dry bones, renewing us day by day. It's not something we can generate on our own; it's a gift from God that we receive when we surrender to Him. No matter where you are or what you're facing, God is a God of revival, and He's ready to breathe new life into you.
