What are you prophesying?

The hand of the LORD was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and
placed me in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones. He made me walk all 

around among them.

I realized there were a great many bones in the valley and they were very dry. He said to me,  “Son of man, can these bones live?” I said to him, “Sovereign Lord, you know.” 

Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and tell them: ‘Dry bones, hear 

the word of the LORD.

This is what the sovereign LORD says to these bones: Look, I am about to infuse breath 

into you and you will live. I will put tendons on you and muscles over you and will 

cover you with skin;  I will put breath in you and you will live. Then you will know 

that I am the LORD.’”

So I prophesied as I was commanded. There was a sound when I prophesied – I heard a 

rattling, and the bones came together, bone to bone. As I watched, I saw tendons on them, then muscles appeared, and skin covered over them from above, but there was 

no breath in them. He said to me,

“Prophesy to the breath, – prophesy, son of man – and say to the breath:
‘This is what the sovereign LORD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe 

on these corpses so that they may live.’”

So I prophesied as I was commanded, and the breath came into them;
they lived and stood on their feet, an extremely great army.”

What are you prophesying? Are the words from yourself or mine?
Are your motives self-promoting or bringing glory to the throne of grace?
