Many Christians who are fans only and not followers (disciples) of our savior Lord Jesus Christ have been taken to a place called "The Valley Of Dry Bones" - Ezekiel 37:1-14 NIV. This is a place where all human attempts from mans point of view don't work. God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong - 1 Corinthians 1:27 NASB. You feel hopeless and helpless while your prayers are hindered, and you can't fix this. It is a place where you have joined other fans who are carnally minded that have been cut off from God whose bones are disconnected and very dry - Romans 8:6 NKJV.

God knows we are not ready, but He must make us ready. Being disconnected from God makes us cooperate with the program because it is too painful to stay where we are. The pain means it's time for a change. The worst the shaking is in your life, God is screaming at you. We must go through labor to be transformed from a fan to a follower of Lord Jesus Christ. It is good news in a bad situation. This means something powerful and wonderful is coming. Once a fan of Jesus Christ realize that things are not being added, they can't get ahead, chaos is within their life, and they can't fix this...they are ready for God to ask them "Can these bones live."

Jesus wants you and I to stay connected to the Cross. All power and authority has been given to our savior Lord Jesus Christ in heaven and earth who has come so that you and I may have life, and have it to the full. He has said, "I am the resurrection, the life, the way, and the truth.

Philippians 1:6 says, “Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” (NIV). What God starts, he finishes. Where God guides, he provides. And where God leads, he meets our needs. But he’s going to test you first, because there is no testimony without a test.

This reminds me of people who only give lip service and then wonder why things do not change in their lives. Each one of us has the word of God that we call the Holy Bible, but many do not heed the words in it as they would rather follow man instead of the very Spirit of God that gives us life abundantly.

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
Galatians 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
