Joel 1v10-12

Have you ever felt dry?

Physically your body feels weak and tired, your mouth is dry and you might even have a headache. Medically this is a state of dehydration where your body is starved of water. Spiritually you feel empty, lonely even, in spite of being surrounded by people. Unhappiness. Your spirit begins to wither and dry out... in the way Joel describes the vine and fig trees.

Joel concludes that surely joy has withered away from the sons of man. Has your joy withered away? Are you dry at this time in your life? Do not worry if you feel so. Look to Jesus and declare that it shall be well with you. If Ezekiel could prophesy to dead dry bones to live again then so can you. We are children of the same God therefore we can call things that are not as though they were, and so they shall be.

Think of all dry spots in your life (write them down). Meditate upon them... what caused those areas to dry up? How long they have been dry? Maybe they've been dry so long that they are already dead. Declare in Jesus' name that all dry aspects shall be revived. Ask Jesus to water every part of your life from his spring of living water. Ask him to water you daily as you trust God for the increase. From henceforth you will grow. Speak positive growth into everything that concerns you. You will see catch-up growth in all formerly dead or dying areas. The power of the resurrection will resurrect all dead and dying plans you ever had... dry or dead dreams... according to the perfect will of God.

Pray that all futile plans and dreams not be reawakened. May God only grow that which will become fruitful in your life.
