You See Bones, I See An Army

"God takes us through the valley of dry
bones to teach us we don't have what
it takes to serve in God's Army"
- Floyd McClung


Huddled in small groups all over the country is an army of prayer warrriors on this National Day of Prayer. And here is what God desires from his people:

We are called to die! Not just once to sin, but as a way of life. By dying to our rights, we find life. That means dying to our opinions, dying to the right to be understood, the right to be represented, the right to be loved, the right to be treated justly, and all of our other rights . . . we humble ourselves before God and people (Excerpts from Floyd McClung YOU SEE BONES, I SEE AN ARMY).



The vision?
The vision is an army of God's people,
You see bones, I see an army
This is an army that will lay down its life for a cause.

Foundations shaking
Revolutionaries dreaming once again
'For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.'

And this is the generation to pray
like a dying man or woman
with groans beyond talking
Waiting. Watching!

Their words make demons scream
Here comes the frightened and forgotten with fire in their eyes.
It will come to pass
It will come soon
The groaning of the Spirit
the very dream of God.
