He needed Ezekiel’s verbal words so he could begin to work on his behalf, and told him what to say in Ezekiel 37:4, "Then he said to me, 'prophecy to these bones and say to them, ‘OH DRY BONES, HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD.'" And those dry bones became a mighty army! God is wanting you and I to do the same, and to prophesy over our situation. If dry bones can hear, than things like cancer can hear; money can hear; depression can hear; and any situation or circumstance, no matter how dire it may appear, can hear.
