THE VERY DRY BONES! (Part 2)
1 Timothy 6:10 – For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows (KJV)
Read: Ezekiel 37:1-14
Yesterday, we examined the physical and mental factors that could have led what was once a great army to the level of very dry bones in Ezekiel 37. Today’s devotional focuses on financial dryness.
Ecclesiastes 10:19 reveals that money answers all things. In other words, the lack of financial capacity incapacitates the essentials of life. The story of the widow in 2 Kings 4:1-7 provides clarity on financial dry bones. Already burdened with the family’s responsibilities, the creditor threatened to seize the widow’s only two children unless she paid her late husband’s debt. However, when Elisha gave a prophetic direction, the woman obeyed, and God revived her very dry financial bones.
On the other hand, the love of money and having it in abundance can lead to severe dryness. According to today’s Bible text, the affection for money is the gateway to all sins and afflictions. This is because people turn away from God out of covetousness and have pierced themselves with many sorrows. Turning away and sorrow are the two key consequences here. Dissociating from God results in a lack of spiritual consciousness, similar to a very dry and lifeless bone. Likewise, sorrow, as learned in Part 1, is a source of physical and mental dryness. All of these have a connection to the love of money.
Beloved, examine your financial situation. If you are experiencing a lack, pray for divine provision and seek guidance on how to trigger an increase, such as investing and sowing seeds. Also, if yours is the love of money, repent and ask the Holy Spirit to cultivate your heart for the things of God. By doing so, your dry bones will rise again!
