"Death and life are in the power of the tongue", Proverbs 18:21a. This means that the words we speak can bring about either life or death. When a church is dead, you can bring it back to life by speaking to it. In John 11:43-44, Jesus spoke to the dead, "Lazarus, come forth", and he that was dead came back to life. His words brought about the resurrection of the dead and our words must encourage, inspire, motivate and transform the lives of those who hear them. This seminar book "Rattle: Can These Dry Bones Live?" examines Ezekiel's vision of the valley of dry bones and the power of speech when guided by the Holy Spirit. The four lessons covered are, The Hand of the Lord, The Spirit of the Lord, Before You Speak and Transformational Speech - Speaking to Effect Change.
